I want my life back and to stay out of limelight.

I hope you've also posted that on faceache, twatter and instagrump. At least a local radio interview too if possible

That's a fairly early N42 B20, Valvetronic of oil leaks. If it's smoking, the rings are shagged - common on neglected ones. Plus the usual E46 shite - rust, brake pipes, rust, door locks, wishbones, rust etc. A solid one does drive well but if it's burning oil, don't spend a bean more than is necessary to MOT it. 

 

I've got a 2007 E90 with this engine, just replaced the timing chain assy at 100k. Great when they run properly, fucking horrid when they don't.

POLITICS GRUNT: 

Leave blower is that under debate in Parliament shortly, hein?

I really want to see how well the car scrubs up. As far as I can tell, it looks to be pretty sound under the gunge.

Hopefully for political neutrality there will be remains under the leaves.

I hadn't thought before, but could you take it to somewhere where poor benighted east Europeans offer to wash and polish the car for a £5 and leaf them to it for an hour?

Thats a bloody decent show, even the first attempt was a good crack after being sitting around!

 

Nice work :)

Not even an advisory for OIL LEAK.

Must have fixed itself.

 

These are chain driven arnt they?

Should be picking it tomorrow and Im quite looking forward to it. No Lexobarge, I know but its another marque to tick off the list.

Er, yeah. Thats a cheeky pre-lay up shot ripped from the POs facebook page. Its still gonna need a right good clean. Thankfully, thats within my skillset.

Looking good there. It's even cleaner than mine! Originally Milton Keynes registered I think, specifically Luton area were most current plated Mercs have been registered.

My brother had one like that, the ABS light came on and it cost over a grand to fix.  Still, you might be alright, there's always a chance.

It costs a grand to take a bulb out?? pfffffffffffftttt

Tip top efforts there chap!

 

initial fail wasn't too bad, and it looks well all cleaned up:)

Excellent

 

One of the first to get a Christmusthave Tree, a For Lawn Bee Emm.   

 

Well done, you can get a minter that only needs fuel for a Grand, a runner with test but scabs for a Monkey, but it ent true full on Autoshite 'fun' and certainly no Bush Tucker Trial.

 

By Monday it's gleaming and ready for a re-test then.

I always thought German cars are sooo good, never break and last forever?

Now this one bombed its MoT in spectacular fashion.

As a result my espisteme is seriously fucked up. What shall I do?

You're all barking up the wrong tree with those puns.

That's the root of the problem.

I hoped they wood branch out so the acorn of humour could grow into a mighty oak of amusement.

Looks lovely in the dark.

I really like that. Will definitely be up for a (some) ticket(s) if (when) you come to raffle that.
