Is the Cannock in your handle anything to do with Cannock Chase?
Was on an ISO 9001 course many moons ago with a guy who used to cycle/walk in that area - think he lived near Wolverhampton IIRC?

Ahh I see, I've no idea why I remember Cannock Chase, it was 1998 and I've never came across it before or since ??

cannockwolf the car is looking great, wish I had the confidence to do some of the stuff you have but I'm a bit cack handed lol
One question re the 50th anniversary badge on the steering wheel, is it a sticker or a metal badge and if a badge did it fit over the top of the original or did you have to remove the old one?

Thanks

Nice to see someone from the same area, sure I’ve seen you about in the E46 a few times. Haven’t spotted the M240i yet though.

Currently got a yas blue M4 you may have seen, just purchased a M240i and this thread is going to cost me alot of additional money

Did you declare the grille meshes to the insurance?
I quite like them but the pain of describing what they are to insurance is putting me off. Mind you, i did the seat backs as you know and didn’t declare them.

I had mentioned everything i didto it, took ages lol, but they dont list half the stuff i told them on the insurance, same with the E46 too, it needs to fit in their catagories i think to matter
