Are there elections in May?

They've effectively cancelled many local elections to try and bias the vote.

Take Sussex... West Sussex is predominantly right wing, Brighton is predominantly Vegan leftists. By combining West Sussex with Brighton, they've effectively neutered to Right leaning vote.

"We can't have elections yet because we haven't finished Gerry-mandering the seats". ::)
Pretty much. Snidey buggers.

I left my ncdc2015 in place and fully functional and simply tapped into the CDC audio.

Then, I replaced the glovebox with a NAV one and used the single din slot to mount a Sony  Bluetooth head unit capable of running the Sony disc changers. Using the Sony switch, XA30/40 iirc, I fitted 3 ten disc changers in the boot.
 The head unit had a remote with it and I also fitted the steering column remote as well.

Net result, functioning Bose, NAV, radio and computer, DAB, Bluetooth, RCA and phono aux in, and 30.CDs, all in a much more reliable arrangement than those daft expanding cartridges that always jammed up.

thats correct and the easy bit .i could tap into the cd input to the main switching ic (or even the tape input post eq and use some switching method )
i still use cd's and also cassettes as well but thought of using an external changer so i could do something in the existing cd slot/flap area.
other option would be to leave with existing 4disc changer and just add an internal bluetooth module and/or a usb decoder and piggyback the track skip buttons as req with the usb socket in the blank lower dash insert .
like i say mines all working ok just an idea for a future project !
after all the schenanigans with my other car stereos my head was in project mode !!!!

Or you tap into the CDC audio feed.

It's well documented mod that I used to good effect on my 3.2 Elite estate.

We shall see in that case hopefully it's followed by a GE in fairly short order.

His criteria was something able to take some mileage, (his 3 series has done 50k in two years), be presentable to use for clients and deal with a bit of water and tip duties.Towing was a plus. And it had to have all the fancy thing that new car owners take for granted like CarPlay and heads up display.

Apart from the fancy stuff, the ML would have done the job without having to worry about mileage or it picking up the odd ding.

Whoever gets the 125i next is going to get a sweet little convertible. It was FILs last car and he really looked after it. They just don't get the use out of it to keep it around. It's taken my SIL a good few years to be able to let it go.

Some cancelled but many (most ?) going ahead.
