    its leaking power steering a little bit, but no oil which is good. took some photos today, accessed what needs to be replaced. Rotors\tie rods are all I found so far.

            couple more shots with my roof rack, and my e34.





            I bought a dinan chip off here before I even drove the car. I got it registered today and drove it and found that it already has a chip as the rev limit is ~6k

                well played previous owner, selling the car as rust free:eeek: I discovered this while doing brakes today, this used to be the front passenger side jacking point but I pulled all the metal out with my hands. Dont really know what to do about fixing this, as its further forward than the passenger footbox so I dont know if removing the carpet will give me access, which i need to cut\weld new metal in.

                    Crappy PO. Hopefully that's where the rust ends. Seems to be a pretty clean car otherwise although If you see paint "cracking", there's something going on under that surface. Good luck man. I hope you get it all sorted out. Clean early models are a rare deal.

                      This would seem to call for some ebay negative feedback.

                          What's going on with the drivers front fender? Looks tweaked too.

                            probably just the photos, nothing wrong with it, the bumper plastic is a little warped making the gap seem strange.

                              That's too bad about the rust.. Looks like the car is in good hands now though
