Congrats on your new daily. When i was in the market for a new daily i also wanted space grey but just could not get my hands on one. They either got sold or the mileage was intense. I eventually settled on a white msport e90. But your mileage is ridiculously low. Super clean up job.
Quite alot of dirt was under than unchanged pollen filter. Anyway happy kms with your 320.

Managed to pick up an E90 M Sport wheel for cheap yesterday. Already pulled it apart, will strip the soft touch off the trim and repaint in satin black for an OEM-like finish. Still deciding on where to send the wheel for a retrim.

Congrats bud, she's a beaut...

Regarding the trim, Tamiya matte black aerosol is closest to the OEM finish.

IMHO it would be an injustice to the condition of the car to not retrim that wheel. Also, with the leather having become so coarse and aged, you will not enjoy the feel of holding that wheel (or should I say that RIM)

Not retrimming the wheel isn't an option, I'm just trying to decide who will do it as previously mentioned.

If you could get it to Centurion, you could try Leatherboyz. Happy with how the steering wheel came out in my car.

Perhaps check if you could “courier” / arrange with someone on here geographically close to them.

Went through my first tank of diesel last night with 90km left to spare. Wanted to fill up at 50km range but was on my way home from Franschhoek and didn't want to chance it.

Considering this was 90% traffic driving and 10% open highway driving, I am super happy with these numbers.

The diesel life is good!
