Just thought id say hi.Names Jay.

 Not had my first BMW long just over 6 months. Its a 318i E46 1998.

Had a few teething problems since bought it. Garage bought it from ceased trading 2 weeks after bought car. Just my luck. Have so far had engine breather valve, airflow meter and new rears springs fitted so far.

Few mods done myself are: Clear front and side indicators, removed the BMW business stereo and fitted a JVC dvd player + rear monitor. Few more in the pipe line.

Hi Jay, welcome to the forum.

Since you're proper North East you should come along to some of the Club NE meetings, first Wednesday of the month at the Lakeside Inn (see our website for directions).

We will also be at the Dilston Car Show, Corbridge this Sunday. Last I heard we had about 35 cars going so should be good if the weather holds.
