this holidays i felt like making a change. so i got rid of the Mk2 VR6 and replaced it with a 1995 E36 328i convertible. the car had 255000km on the clock and everything was just perfect besides:
1. the headlights were the crap aftermarket ones. i have since made it look a bit better but will install the original ones with quad projectors and angel eye rings.
2. the idler gear had a rattle. will be sorted by end of next week.
3. the control arm bushes were shot. i have ordered polyurethane ones.
4. rear plastic window on the soft top had two holes. the seller has ordered a new one and will deliver this to me as soon as he receives it.
5. the sound system had no bass but plenty piercing trebble. so i installed an amp and a sub. (thread for this to follow)
here are the pics of the car (before and after mods mixed):
