Great to hear you bought the car! I am sure it will be well look after by you. Make sure you keep the bird crap off of it. Can't wait to see the photos when you get them out. You should also make sure Richard in London features it on his COTM web site next month.

Hi folks

What decent spark plugs should I put in my 02? Its missing on one cylinder when idling, checked everything regapped the obvious,condensor etc new so it may be a failing plug.

Any idea?

 

oddly enough I just put Bosch Super-4s in my turbo and they were dreadful. Don't know why but performance was much worse. replaced them with the standard Bosch plugs and the car is pulling stronger than ever!

Hi James - I went (as you know I'm based in Brighton) but I spent the night before in London and didn't check my emails so didn't get this one - didn't see you and your orange 02, sorry to have missed you if you were there?

Good turn out & lots of interest in the cars, even the Dutch made the effort; http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q256/richstern/BMW%20Festival%202008/

I went today and was impressed with the turnout although I was 02 less myself. I particularly liked a pair of red 02s in great condition and a lovely black 1602 which was exactly like my first car when I left school. Also the green 02 featured recently on Richard's car of the month was a great example of a daily driver. I think it was worth the 280 mile round trip and I am now desperate to get my 02 painted soon.

Shame I had to work - looks like a good day. Any more info on the blue touring with the M30 engine?? Bet that sounds awsome with triple sidedrafts!!

Thanks Brad, I just need to give it a bit of a clean and I will take some photos. Does your 02 have air con and if so do you know what the unit was that was fitted, I seem to remember your car on the web somewhere and I thought it said you had air con?
