Mike- Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 I've had this since Jan 2013 but never got round to taking any pictures of it until now. I've kept it standard mostly, modifications are limited to some FK coilovers, 15mm spacers, ambers and some Audi exhaust tips. OCD has driven me to doing small s**t like new badges, mats and stuff like that. Its rolling on new rubber all round, spanking new brakes and lines all round and fresh off a service. Lovely peace of mind driving it round. On 134k and counting...

Mike- Posted August 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Funnily enough the car was debadged when I bought it, so that addition was my handywork. Love a bit of chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike- Posted August 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 No other mods, potentially replacing it with a 6-series, but with all the new 'consumables' on it (and the fact I taxed it last week for 12 months) makes letting go of trouble-free motoring difficult. If I keep it, replace the CCV and VANOS seals as it's using about 1L every 2,000 miles. Tyres are standard sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You already have enough chrome on the back (exhaust)... Mike- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddybrown23 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 That is a really nice, clean looking e46. It sits nicely on the MV1's and I really love the front ambers, giving me ideas for my imola touring now .

mneth1986 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Looks great mike, nice subtle mods. Wouldn't think ambers would work on imola but they look great Mike- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TriggerFish Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) Do it! That interior is lovely. There's just something awesome about separate rear seats. I'd love one, but can't really justify it. Edited August 26, 2014 by TriggerFish Mike- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungers Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I personally don't think the ambers suit it, especially as the rears are clear, but everything else looks spot on! Mike- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkynut Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 I like it just the way it is! A manual 330i coupe in Imola Red = Very Nice! Kirkynut Mike- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das_flo Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Looks well mate fair play! Was it you who had a low 328i sport before? I love ambers, agree on the rears but LED ambers are a bitch to find. A bit of Laminx would do the trick if you wanted them amber anyway. Something about this car, and I can't put my finger on it. Lovely! Mike- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike- Posted August 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Happy with the clear LED rears, break up the colour a bit in a similar way to the chrome at the front end. Yeah had an E36 before, would love to know if this is still knocking about, reg was T*** JCF if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
