Hi guys, I have a 318ti called Brenda. We live in Wakefield - West Yorkshire.

Brenda is a 98 318ti on an R Reg with low milage (58000) so she's lovely!
It's a standard plus SE pack - Sunroof, parking sensors etc in Arctic silver.

I have a 98 brochure and price list that I picked up on eBay, I've scanned it and converted to pdf if anyone fancies a trip down memory lane (or just to see how much your baby was new) It's a big file, so if you're a dropbox user, let me know and i'll share a link with you.

It is, drives like a 4 year old car. Straight as a die, just the usual stone chips here and there. I'm putting some pics on over the next couple of days.

Here is a link to some pics of my 318ti. I'm just in the process of getting the paintwork stone chip free and waxed up. Here's the result of 2 hours with Meguiar's 3 stage lovelies today thanks to Hallfords running a 3 for 2 on all polish etc.

I might need to get in on that 3 for 2 action, I need some T-cut type stuff for some mild but unsightly scrapes I picked up the other day. Except I am so broke from all this messing around with exhausts that I can't even afford to fill her up until the weekend. Doh.

Asda do a coloured T-Cut and is sometimes on offer, cheaper than Halfords unless you can find enough cash down the sofa for 2 more items.

No, a tube of abrasive cream with the colour in it. No good for deep scratches, your wax stick is probably a better bet.

I'm in two minds whether to attack mine with 3 stick paint chip sets as it can make more of a mess than an honest scratch and I can't imagine how much a local body shop would charge.
