A peach of a car Z3 M-s54

[Philip Foglar]

It's clear that this car is in better condition and well looked after compared to most cars - have seen cars less than a few months old looks as they are 10 plus years old, and I am not talking about tazz's just BTW... Then again, a car as special as this is really worth the effort and care! raise:

The left hand side radiator vane appears not to be fitted to the S54 cars.

We had ordered one which was ex Germany and here it is.

As with most things one thing leads to another.

Powerflex lower control arm bushes.
New design from Powerflex which works much better.

---

All 4 brake calipers will have been sent for ceramic coating in "factory spec black"

---

Absolutely smooth discs with a straight surface but worn pads after 28xxxKs.

Clearly no hard erratic braking.
I consider that as a sign of good driving habits.

Left front stripped

Here is the before pic.

Good lord that is expensive! But then it's a ceramic coat and not powder coat.

Replaced the stabiliser links with MEYLE HD as they are bigger better stronger and cheaper the OE.
