M3 owner saying Hi :)

[Dino]

Been told about this forum for a while and thought I would sign up :) I'm related to Andy (P8AND) and know Baris (XKaLiBaR) too

I'm also on e36coupe.com and occasionally on the PBMW forum too.

I drive an e36 dealer supplied (Rossiters) AC Schnitzer M3 Evolution. I am 35 years old and have owned the car since Oct 2006. I use it mainly on the road but I try to do a few track days a year and also try to get out to the Nurburgring at least once a year too. So far I've done Donington Park, Oulton Park, Cadwell Park, Bedford Autodrome and two trips to the Nurburgring in it (42 laps in this car so far :cool: )

Spec of the car when I bought it:

'97 R Reg
Techno Violet
ACS TypeII 18" staggered alloys
Dunlop SP9000s
ACS/Recaro Terracotta interior
ACS gearlever
ACS gearknob
ACS pedals

Eibach lowering springs

Polybushed all round
'vert lower X brace
Front & rear upper strut braces
CA carbon induction kit
