    Wagon updates.... again

    So, I have a love hate relationship with this touring.

    On one hand, it's about the coolest car I could own here (2.0L taxes, 2.5L m50, bilsteins H&Rs, etc etc) but it has always had many nagging problems..
    Motor ran rough, clunks in the front end, electrical problems, traction issues etc.
    Since I live in downtown Brussels I couldn't do much to fix it as I live on a city street.. So I went to see my buddy axel (bavarian bimmer) and we went through the car's problem (again)
    -new control arm, sway bar link
    -new brake pads - BMW
    -New motor mount (nos m5 one broke after 1 month!!)
    -New IS LIP
    -Installed a charcoal cansiter + double checked all the vac lines
    -New rims (Melber 16x7.5)
    -Meguiars three step wax
    -New black Hella ellips
    -Red painted tails
    -New tires (still in the trunk)

    Sorry for the quality of the pix, they are taken w/o a tripod at sunset
    Bad picture of me:









    I'm sure their will be haters regarding the rims, but I was tired of my ronals and the BBS look in general (for now) and these have brand spankin' new tires (still in the trunk heh) and fit very well... And I think they make the touring look a little newer.
    And now a video (might as well be an MP3 ... lol)

        I liked the old wheels
