Here she is. Still incomplete - there are various badges etc to be renewed and then I have to think about refurbishing the interior but you should get the general idea.

Very, very nice. The bodyshop has done an excellent job. Look forward to seeing it at Alford.

I know, I know!

Forgive me for teasing but I'd like to get it properly finished before I go plastering lots of pics over t'internet. New (genuine) badges for the wheel centres and bootlid are top of the list along with some very subtle upgrades. :wink:

Incidentally, when I picked this up from the bodyshop I swapped it for the B8, which has a touch of rust on one arch and could do with a front end respray etc. Once that's done, the BT goes in...

Looks great Chas, looking forward to seeing the finished photos.

Are you going to change the indicator lenses to white as it looked really good on my E34.

Thanks Jim. I keep changing my mind on that one. My plan was clear front and side indicators and the rears 'painted' red but when I see the photo above I can't help thinking that original is cool again :?
