mRd Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 Hi folks! This is my E46 Hellrot red. First reg Feb 2000. 318ci..Nothing to be proud of, but hopefully will be swapped to M54B30. Instead of putting on Gallery decided to put my little project on here. Bought for £590, Had really bad decals which i removed the first hour i got it. Pasenger's side mirror was broken, rusty front wings and some other bits and pieces. Pictures when I got it: Came with these R17 alloys: Rusty wings: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But got heated electric interriot, silver trims (just temporary they were included in price, very good condition wings and some other small bits and pieces) They did let me to take out the wiring loom, so spent 5-6 hours taking it out, had lots of cuts on my hands because of broken glass, but it was great success got everything for £100.
