Hi,
 
I have just recently joined the board and I thought I should I introduce myself.
 
I have an E39 530i Sport, which I bought last September and prior to that I had an E46 328i.  My E46 was fun, but the E39 is just something else.
 
Anyway, I live in Livingston and I am hoping to get myself along to some of the Scottish meetings. 
 
I am going to keep it relatively standard, the only things I have done so far are add a set of Predator ICE and a set of HID lights to the low beam (the standard lights were pants to say the least!).
 
I am also having an ICE upgrade tomorrow, but more about that in another post
 
Here are some pictures of my car.
 
PS.  please excuse the dirty floor mats ;)

Thanks for the welcome guys.  I am about 95% certain that I will make it along to the March meeting.  I am looking forward to meeting up with some fellow BMW enthuisiasts

Nothing as classy as that Stephen, I did check out the colour code once and it was labelled as slate green (pretty boring, eh??!! ;))

I am a big curry fan Tiko  
 
My only problem is that my wife does not like curries, so I rarely go out for a curry :(
 
As a result the March meet will kill two birds with one stone as far as I am concerned:
 
1.  I get stuff myself with Indian food;
2.  I can get to meet fellow Scottish BMW owners!
 
Cheers
 
Adam

Nice cars the E39 530i Sports.  I was on the hunt for one last summer.  Looks like it is loaded with toys too, nice.

We'll all help you out with any technical/oily bits/cleaning tips that you may have.  The guys on here are really helpful.

All the best

Andrew
