Ettiene's 318iS

[that_guy_Ettiene]

So since I'm still waiting for my insurance to pay and settle my E90 320d, I bought myself a mint 1998 E36 318iS from fellow Fanatic Tinnivittee.

Picked her up from XClusivemods on Saturday where Faeez redid my seats in original black dakota leather aswell as the rooflining in black.

Drove all the way back to Thanazimbi without any issues.

Here is some pics of the interior;
Before

And after:

This morning I got up early to give her a quick wash and removed the rear lights to clean....holy hell there was hiding alot of accumulated dirt.

Clean and dried the housing and replaced all the globes front and rear just for peace of mind. Front replaced with Osram NightBreakers

Scared it would look too sombre inside...and it kinda works for me.

This car looks a lot like the one i sold to Moose a while back. That car also had on about 118k kms on when i sold it. Had in the "mustard" coloured seats i bought from Ralf (i think he is the Ralf that recently passed away who msm had contact with). Please confirm if this is the same car or am i wrong?

Jho....so this car is a bit of a Fanatics slut car.

So in sequence it was Solo Man car, then Moose', Tinnovitee and now mine.

I see from all the documentation that she was bought from Auto Atlantic, V&A Waterfront.

Yeah it like having a big ass dick[FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY].
Let me know when you get your hands on E46 330i calipers etc please man.

After driving the car a bit more I think new bushes are in order.
Will mail AxisEngineered for this.

The recovered seats look great!

Would you mind divulging what it costs to have a single seat recovered?

I don't know what a single seat would cost but you can contact Faeez from XclusiveModz.
Tell him Ettiene referred you. Price for my seats was lower than I expected.

Car certainly looks very well cared for! Thank you Moose and others!!! The cruise control was all she needed!
