	I had to sell my BMW2002 and happened to find this little gem via the Autotrader of all places. It meant a 7 hour journey by train and tube from one side of the country to the other but was well worth it! I even managed to sell the standard rims and buy the new ones you can see in the pictures. I have fitted a decent cd player, speakers and sub and the only other mod' I have in mind for the near future is to lower the suspension if I can find some springs? Oh, and some Recaros.....oh, and a 2.7 engine conversion.....oh, and an LSD......oh, and a respray next winter.....and a glass rear window from an MX5. I absolutely love driving this car and its cheap to insure aswell. I guess I could have bought a Mondeo or a Vectra?? No thanks!!

	You probably know, but you can get whole indicator sets with white lenses from W&N for about £40 delivered.

	I've just been and got a money order to post to them so I should have them soon. I ordered an Alpina horn-push for my steering wheel to! I can't believe what I have just seen at the bottom of the pile of cars on the back of a lorry on route to the scrappy.....an e36 with AC Schnitzer bodykit, rims (well 3 of them anyway), badges etc. I tried to turn round and give chase but got caught up in rush hour traffic!! What a waste.....

	When it rains hard I have a slight leak along one of the stitched seams on the hood of my car. Can anyone suggest any products to stop the leaking?? I was thinking of leather dubbing or spray-on Scotchguard or something? I will have a better quality hood made at some point but the one on there is in really good condition and its just this one seam thats the problem. Any suggestions would be gratefully recieved!

	I want to convert to single headlamps like the base cars like the 316. I don't suppose anyone wants to swap or has the parts I need for sale at a reasonable price?

	Got rid of the 15's for some proper old scool rims which look soooooooo much better. I just need to lower it now but I can't afford them at the moment. I just had a new hood fitted which was nearly £900 although my insurance took care of most of that as the original was slashed by kids. The new hood looks awesome and they made a first class job of it. I am saving hard for an e30 325 engine and the lowered springs which will make my car just as I want it. I'd love a saloon for a hillclimb and sprint car but as I now live in London I need a garage first. I can't believe how cheap e21's are compared to the 2002. They are just so underated. Shame....

	Just so happens I have the chance of one of those but its in Bristol. I'm also trying to find someone to help with the conversion as I broke my neck, back and pelvis so can't manage the stuff I used to.

	I keep thinking I've "done" BMWs but I see a sweet E21 and it just gets me all misty eyed again. The minilites are a big improvement - nice one.

	Really? I need to take that down. I was having trouble with finances as can't work after an accident but have moved home so can now keep it. I wouldn't be able to get anything half as nice for the sort of money e21's fetch so I'd much rather keep it anyway. I think e21's are totally underrated.
