Hey guys,

Went and bought this last night for a bargain IMO. Car runs and pulls very well and the body is in good condition with no rusty archs at all.

It's a 328i with all the Mtech kit including the mirrors and from lip too. Also came with some retrimmed leather which will be sold but it's very nice for now

Plans for the next 3 weeks are:


Gaz Coilovers - Gaz direct, specific spring rates
Steering wheel - Rally designs 3" dished wheel (find boss)
Bucket seats - Magnum direct or rallydesigns
Harnesses - 3" strap ANY
Brake discs - Bremtec Grooved
Brake pads - Mintex 1155 Motorsport world
Brake hoses - HEL braided lines HEL/DIRECT
Service parts - Engine oil, gearbox oil, powersteering fluid top up. Check bushes and joints
Tyres - 235/45/17 toyo r888s

Car overall feels great and very solid, pictures are off my I phone so not the best!

2 of my S2000 too, couldn't leave it out









And yes, the M3 badges are being removed

Two of the S2k

Ash - Not really any tricks, just find things people want and can't get and work out a way to make them available.

Cole - It was 1k

Yeah, i can imagine the interior weighing in at around 150kg alone, then theres a big 16inch spare wheel that must be atleast 20ish with all the jack etc.

you will prob have enough fun with that engine to be honest, the cost of a v8 conversion or m3 just wouldnt be worth it in my opinion,

That was the plan, however it has a fair bit of tax and MOT so i've insured for now mainly to be able to test things that are fitted to make sure nothings up. Hopefully everything will be on in the next month.

Then really it's just the cage to go in but obviously i won't really need to test that like i will brakes and suspension etc.

Erm various things.

I've sold 140+ centre sections for EP3 Type Rs at £150 quid each.

If you type r8byb into youtube it comes up with a fair few who did videos when i was starting out.
