Multi fake stickered E46 B3S 237

The E46 B3S Saloon covered in stickers and dymo tape is up for sale again at Classic Heroes. I find it difficult to understand why all that rubbish has not been removed. I believe it sold a couple of years ago for circa £21K, now up for 29K :wall2 As far as I can remember it took a long time to sell...

Re: G30 B5 with mixed tyres

Yes I had noticed the MOT details, also it has had 4 owners already, makes you wonder what else is not as it should be. Would want to knock them down by more than a couple of hundred, overpriced in my view. Too new to appreciate, could have bought " Clarkson's" B5 a while back for considerably less,...

G30 B5 with mixed tyres

There is a 2018 allrad G30 B5 for sale on auto trader at Evolution in Neston Cheshire. Looks very nice, but the thing that would concern me is that it has different tyres on front and rear, Michelins on front Pirelli P Zero on rear. Whilst not illegal, it is much better to have the same brand of tyr...

Got my exhibitor ticket a while back using a link you sent via FB. Although it states "Exhibitor" it doesn't say with whom or which group?
I am surprised you are not still Grumpy from the last one :wink: , the noise was appalling

Anyone got any alternatives to osram night breakers or philips xtreme vision

How can I be convinced to go back to Gaydon, I have been there 10 times, the museum is the same as is the lunch menu, bogs are quite clean, so uncertain at this time.
Hope you were given a good pair of ear defenders for Christmas if you decide to go again :D

Re: Production volume

I would image that the majority of B8 production would have been for the US market, therefore no unique chassis number, hard to pin them down :(

Re: Help - my renewal quote doubled !!

I don't know who you are insured with Ashok, but I have been with LV for ever, this years premium for my B3S BT Cab was £30 more than last year.

I also obtained a quote from them for a M6 GC I was thinking of buying, came in at a very reasonable £620.

Worth a try.
