I'm pretty sure it wont take as long to see a 2 as the starting number as it took to get to 4 figures!!!!!

I had to do that many in 2 days a fortnight ago !!

.... AND at less than 4000 rpm

Come on Dunc.... the car had to do it but you didn't lol Didn't you get your mate to drive it?

Cracking car in perfect condition.

Best colour aswell

I know its not startling news but the car was driven for over 50 consecutive kilometeres, certainly for the first time in its life, a fair bit of it nudging the max revs as recommended for the running in period.

Car sure feels sweet, just wants me to give it more, but I think I had better dump those 7 year old tyres before I get too clever!!

What do 4 new BBS CSL wheels sell for in UK/Europe, there is a set for sale here and I might be tempted as a spare set?

A set of CSL wheels are around £1650 new at a BMW dealer here in the UK last time i checked.

I year birthday of ownership just passed and sorry to say haven't advanced the kilometers on the car too far it now stands at 1206km.

Maybe I'll do better this year. I was in the UK for a short while a few weeks ago stayed in Buskingham Palace Rd (Rubens Hotel) 6 weeks before the wedding and again 2 days before the wedding.

Weather was awesome much better than we are having down under and the London was certainly buzzing.

Had to buy a new battery wouldn't charge 8 years of sitting around not doing much did it in I suspect
