Hi Guys,
It’s been three years since I have introduced the 320 on the forum and never really kept the thread alive all this time, so i have decided keep track of all the changes done to the car throught this thread...
I will start at the beginning, hardly two month having purchased the car, i was rammed by an old Mazda from the back. The owner of the Mazda did not have a driver’s license and literally begged me not to involve the police, well in the end, I did sympathise with the old man, lucky for me he stuck to his promise and paid for all the repairs that were done by Dent Doctor Centurion....

1. Rear Bumper Resprayed

Later on, I also decided to respray the front bumper just to give Batlhoile a more cleaner look by removing all the scratches...

2. Front Bumper Resprayed

When i bought the car, it had continental run flats at the front and Bridgestone’s at the back, I then decided to have the same brand all round, so i went to GW and put in new tires (Bridgestones) and discs.

3. New Tires and Discs fitted

Not sure how often one should change shocks, but when Banthoile hit 160 000k recently, i decided to spoil her with new shocks all round (Gabriels).

I have never done any mods on the car but recently decided to add a personal touch to the car and got black grills. Overall, i have added 45 000ks on the car and has been a reliable horse with just minor issues fixed (brake sensor and oil filter leakage) and there was also the engine light that came on but it turned out to small issue which was addressed (at a cost of R260) by Club Motors Fountains...

5. Black Grills Fitted

Hopefully in the near future i will do other cosmetic mods on the car...
