Gave the roof a clean up today and it's immaculate. Should help with the resale value.

Missus moaned at me for buying it, then said it actually looks better. Women are odd creatures.

Just seen an olive green one of these drive past me, looked like an Army vehicle

Is that a factory colour?

I believe so, very rare I think.

I have seen a plastidipped one in matte green that looked good but I think that was from the states.

Ah yes, forgot you were in the USA. That explains it then. Looks ok without the ginger bits.

Cheers Matthew!

Went to fit my new steering wheel today, only to find out it's thinner than my current sport wheel

Bit gutted as the new one with the coloured stitching looked brand new, but i'll just sell it on for the same price I paid.

Yeah it must be.

Surely someone will want it for the price I paid. It's immaculate.

And it's off was really easy to remove. Simply slot the Allen key into 2 holes and twist, then get the missus to help lift it off. It's not heavy, just wide.

Could probably do it myself, but didn't want to risk dropping it!

I know mate, they all think they're lawyers drawing up contracts of sale between 2 parties

Sod that, I turned up and paid cash no problems. Not my fault the guy can't get money out in time is it? I managed to get it out the bank fine.

I'm not that keen on z4's but that looks spot on, it makes it look better. How much did you pay for it?

Cheers Andy. It was £700.

Matthew, worked the last 2 weekends so haven't had time to do anything. Hardtops back on and it's ridiculously hot again down here so it's coming back off again!

Found a nice parking spot in my local shopping centre. Must remember this one for the future.

the only thing that's similar is it's a parking space for one car nothing else
