So a quick update, got a few things done and more to come soon.
I really enjoy driving this car, its a great mixture of comfort with some power.
Replaced the grills with gloss black dual slat grills, looks better much! The OEM ones were wrapped black by the previous owner and the wrap was starting to peel. Looked shit.
I ordered a pair of cheap gloss black mirror covers, but they did not fit so will need to source a suitable pair of mirror covers at some point.
Also had ZF do the gearbox service and replace the diff oil with BMW diff oil - so that offers some peace of mind. Due to the higher mileage I was a little worried, but after they checked the oil they were happy with the condition of the gearbox oil and were happy to proceed with the service. Loaded xHP as well, still playing around with it but enjoying it so far.
Unfortunately it seems BMW still cannot get it right with the door handle material which breaks down and gets sticky, still happens on the G30. So I purchased some covers which are great!

The car also went to Sauber Technik for some pampering:
