Yesterday I refitted the interior and the Elite leather, everything except the dash was removed, cleaned, polished and replaced. Smells like a tarts handbag now

Just updating on post last week have now bitten the bullet and had cam belt done £270, service £100, 1 tyre £130 (could have got it cheaper elsewhere but let dealer do it as trade off on service) giving me MOT (fog light sorted prior to retest). Hope I can dodge problems til this time next year.

took out the rad, plastic welded a small crack in side tank, degunked the engine, put it back together (success, no more leaking antifreeze))  oil and filter change gave it a wash, took it for MOT which it sailed through yet again . oh, and put petrol in it .

Changed front & rear pads.N/s rear caliper has a sticky piston,which made it a bit of a chore and now there is a burning smell from the area,so will have to swap the caliper for another in the near future.

Furry vinyl arrived today

So had a little play...



Door trims look promising, but not entirely convinced by the dash panels

They been Flocked Al ?,mate of mine has his own business doing that and looks good in the right place

Alcantara door trims have worked well, but dash could use a rethink

Not being an upholsterer, it's a fair effort, but the dash panels aren't quite as neat as they perhaps should be..too many curves

Picked up the M3 from CPC Performance Engineering in Amersham. £320 lighter but at least the gearbox works again (and better than before, I think)!

Very pleased, really! The replacement sensor was £50 for a secondhand low mileage sensor from a car that suffered SMG pump failure, vs. nearly £300 for the sensor alone from BMW..
