320touring Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 Phenomenal news! Yer man Tickman was most gracious in collecting a new interior for this last weekend. Seller was north of Aberdeen, but was passing through Tickmans hame toon on the Sunday morning, so the exchange took place then. He then shuttled it through to Scotoshite in his spacious Italian estate, and we managed to wrestle it into the e36 for later fitting. Pics or an overloaded Coupe will be available shortly..

Split_Pin Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Exactly what I do on all of my cars, if the interior is broken/tired, fit one from a higher range model. Looks superb! Get some Gliptone Liquid leather on them and they will look brand new. 320touring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

320touring Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 Woop! Left work at 3.45pm, and luzzed a tankful in it at a local supermarket (1.129/l ftw!) Then it was a schlep along the free flowing A702 from Edinburgh to sunny Tebay for dinner. Suitably fed on chiff n fips, and caffeinated for m6 driving we headed out in search of Wrexham. Liberal application of straight 6 saw us beat our southern mates to the hotel (aided by them going to a similarly named one nearby) I parked in the exec section next to an x300 Then the e35* (compact, innit!)

The Reverend Bluejeans Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 What are you going to Wrexham for? Everybody calls it rectum. It is sort of in between two cheeks, Engerland and Way-els. There was that awful Korean 4x4 styling disaster that's known here as the Sssangyong Rectum.

320touring Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 Well she made Friday. A pretty damn good 458 miles on a tank. 36.8mpg That amounts to a 5p per mile saving over the usual 31mpg per 400 miles, or £20 a week saving. Think I need to throttle back..
