    My Touring Lives once more!

    After my 'incident' with a motorcycle pulling out in front of me last year, my car is finally back on the road, even though she has the wrong door (from an '84 sedan) and the door/quarter are matt black, it is just awesome to drive her once again. Also ended up buying the RG's and putting those on (running without caps for the moment). Also bought a UUC Shift knob and //M suede boot.
    After driving round in the E34, its great to be back in the go-kart!!

    Excuse shite iphone pics! I'm excited, after 6 months without it, it's like my first experience with the car again! STOKED!

      I'm actually not sure what springs it is running, as these have always been on the car, with Bilstein Shocks. Prior to the accident I had a defect for being too low, so was forced to buy standard King Springs. But now with the RGs being 16" rather than my RS' being 15" it looked even more like a Range Rover so I had to put them back in, I must say I've missed it looking like this!

            how does a touring drive/handle/ over all feel different from a regular sedan?

                  Cheers Guys! The touring handles surprisingly well, my last E30 was a coupe and I think my touring (although it is set up far better than the coupe) handles very, very well. Takes a bit of getting used to, without a sway bar in the rear it can be very 'rolly' hahaha. But still love rocking up to the driving range with three sets of clubs in the back... lol

                  Iain I am in Yeppoon, stratight to the coast from Rockhampton. Hence the time taken to get all the parts and experienced shops (or lack of... BMW is a foreign word up here) to deal with it all.
