Sooooo, I know i've been on here a couple of months now but figured to start the New Year with a proper build thread and introduction.
I've been modding motors for more years than I care to remember and have had a couple of previous cars magazine featured. I'm a moderator on EvoTechnik too so a couple of you I know already.
Previous cars include -
330d:
V6 4motion:
530d:
M5:
Last one was X5 but my wife has kept that so still in the family:
BUT now we're onto the 335i....
So this particular motor was owned firstly by Mike in Hampshire (which he kindly did quite a bit to her in his ownership) and then scaramanga (whom I bought it off and again added a few nice touches too also).
Unfortunately (which is unlike me) I don't have any pictures from when I picked her up off Nik, but sadly she was absolutely filthy.
Looked pretty much like this:
but had the Eisenmann tips sticking out and CM's style 359 reps on.
Now me being be, I picked the car up at 11am and duly drove straight to Drrncour (Darren off here) and chopped the 359's in for his genuine 313 Performance rims.
Then spent the Sunday giving her a good clean to end up like this:
