    E92 - annual checkover by Conor and then in early for the NCT, not due till March.

    F10 - into dealer for a full service as service history primarily has oil changes. Still has 1 year warranty left from end of January so want to maintain that in case of timing chain/other issues.

    Get both cars a good cleaning, maybe a detail if I can arrange it. Between work and kids even washing it is becoming challenging. :-(

    Ohlins are expensive for motorbikes I can only imagine the cost for a car !!!
    Top quality stuff though.

    Gotta get my e30 back on the road again, sort out some rust issues, nothing overly bad. car got flooded with d1ckhead desmond so i pulled the carpet and it's spurred me on to get working on it. then i'll give it a full respray myself. I'll dye the carpet black too while it's out.



    and when i pulled the drain plug from the floor this happened!

    They're about €2,500 and you use the OEM suspension mounts. So they're not as expensive as you'd think really.
    Some info on them here: http://www.roadandtrackbyohlins.com/

    With the Lord as my witness my E36 shall be back on the road this year just not in time for the wedding as planned because of the usual reliability one gets from those involved in the motor trade eg. unreliable bodyshops.....

    And we will have to buy something else post wedding either as constantly tending to the E34 and her Mk5 Golf would anyone to an early grave!
