318 From the UK

[OMGWTFALIX]

Hello, bought my first Ti. Seen it pop up 10 miles away from me on eBay as i was casually looking for new cars and by the next day i had already bought it! It's a 318 Sport (1.9 M44) with 99,000 miles. Bought her for only £800

Already added some angel eyes (look x10 better in person) german plates, surrounds, aero wiper blades and new spark plugs. New filters and smoked sides/indis currently in the post and a new stainless exhaust is booked in in the coming weeks! Next pay packet - some wheels! Do people on here tend go for 17s or 18s?

Bad pictures i know but a couple of them are from the day i bought her and a couple are as of now. Gonna give her a good wash and wax over the weekend. Thanks and enjoy

Hi there mate and welcome to the club.
I have to admit that you bought a very nice car for £800. I like it, especially the colour. Enjoy it...TI's are very reliable.

PS: Are you allowed to drive with those plates ?

[John Firestone]

It looks like you got a really nice deal.

Yeah, those plates wouldn't be considered valid in Germany.

Welcome mate. Liking the colour. I hear u mention a stainless exhaust. Where r u getting it from as im looking to do the same but cannot find one for the ti

[OMGWTFALIX]

Yeah they're illegal here in the UK but i guess it's just frowned upon. I had them on my old E46 coupe and never got stopped. I even had a police X5 behind me for a while the other day and nothing happened. I'll just keep them until i get stopped

Stainless is booked in for tues 27th from Pro-Speed Exhausts in Cardiff mate, they'll custom make it to the car to my exact needs. One of the best in the country, you only have to look at their reviews online to see why. Worth the travel down if you're from England or afar, they even give you their courtesy car while you wait so you can go into the city shopping

Not much of an update but i've swapped the indi's and sides for smoked, fitting the black grills and led numberplate lights on Monday, will post some pics then.

Hello! A little update for you guys. Smoked out all of the front (grills, indi's and sides) Still yet to fit my bumper grill, will complete the front look after that i think. Apart from an Evo lip





On a bad note, just passed the 100k mark



And on a better note, had a little delivery this afternoon, cant wait to fit them



ZHP weighted gear knob on it's way too, will get some pics of it fitted asap

Enjoy.

Just another sneak peak guys, will get proper shots in when i've had time to clean her
