Andy,

The wheels are 17" Alpina replicas which I had on my E28. Was not going to let them go with the car when I sold it.

Paul

Dont blame you, would be nice to see some better pics if you can.

I'dve kept the alpina's as well, they're nice wheels. 528 came with 5 bbs cross spokes (my fave)and good tyres, so won't be changing them anytime soon.

Ok guys, Ian emailed me some pics of his wonderful E28 so I've built him a webpage here. If anyone else has any pics of their current/old E28 they would like stuck on a webpage, PM me and we can arrange to have them emailed - don't want to post my nice spam-free email address in open forum! A few pics plus a story about the car would be good. I'd like to get details of as many forum E28s as I can.

Excellent, I have one possible taker for the online E28 archive. Be nice to see how many we could get, so step up to the plate lads. Phillip, what about that nice E28 you have floating amongst the E23s?

I must take some scenic pics of my freshly renovated E28. it looks absolutely superb now with new rear bumper & a front wing replaced. all buffed up & gleaming.

I've got a sports interior to go in it, or I may be selling the sports seats to recoup some dosh, as I've spent too much on cars

Finally a decent audio system as the finishing touch, then it will be ready for the summer cruising.

Heres some pics taken after washing ( for some reason they are still poor - whether I'm not keeping still enough I don't know). Andy will take another picture of my wheels and post it on Thursday when I can get to my local library to upload them:

Wow Paul, that is looking seriously sweet. Have never really been a fan of the E34 shape, but that looks superb. Those wheels suit it spot on.

Thanks doive,

Needs a new bonnet though as there are paint blisters. Otherwise, drives sweet and doesn't look too bad. Already have the modding bug though, so I don't think will stay standard for long.
