  • 325ti Compact - Pistachio green love machine, down south...

    Hello!

    Whilst having a mk3 mr2 it became apparent I needed a bigger car for my mtb and dogs. I decided on an e46/e36 estate or diesel or even a small petrol. I then went to the Nurburgring and decided fuel economy is overrated, and I needed to go back so ended up with this:



    A "pistachio green" 325ti, within 10 miles of my house, had 81k a FBMWSH and was half the money I got for my MR2, with 2 more cylinders and 700cc more in the way of engine. The colour is quite vile (but I like it!), as is the interior, but hey, it was cheap!

    I then decided the suspension needed overhauling, so my "man economics" kicked in and I got some coilies:



    There are more lows to be had, but am going to see out the winter as is, and refurb the wheels I got... Then it will look like this, if not a touch lower:

    or this:

    I'll space the wheels as needed...

    Looking good man! Much prefer these compacts to the e36 shape!

          Thank you! A small update:

          I trial fitted the wheels, they need a refurb, but I'm quite happy with them!
