Nice car.

Best way to make it faster is not to buy it and save your pennies for one of the 6 cylinder jobs :-)

Failing that, stick with a panel filter for around �50 or less. K&N is the old favourite... then on with a quality stainless steel zorst (Magnex or Milltek maybe) ~�300 (not one of the noisy fart pipe jobs!) finally sort out the chip with a nice Dastek UNICHIP ~�400. Should see you up to a max of 160bhp if you're lucky.

Try http://www.tesco.com/finance not sure how they'll react to your 3 years claim free in DK... do you operate a no claims bonus scheme there? If you do, just bring proof of your NCB in writing (and maybe a translation!). (I've also got a list of insurers at http://www.newtongrove.demon.co.uk/cars.html)

As a guide, I'm paying about �540 for a 1996 328i coupe, aged 27 with 8 years NCB.

You'll need to come to the Scottish regional meetings at Queensferry once you move to Edinburgh :-)

I will try to talk with my insurence, if the can give some proof about the 3 years drive, but let us hope the can give me.

540� is it for 1 years amount

Let us see, when im going to be in the meetings, but the problem is, i don't know anybody.

Yes, �540 is for 1 year.

Check out the region's website @ http://www.newtongrove.demon.co.uk/bmwcc you'll see pictures of some of the members. Just come up and say hi to anyone loitering beside a BMW on the day of a meet - pretty much no-one knew anyone when we started the meets - I certainly hadn't met any of the members before.

There's Superspeed out by Edinburgh Zoo and Ripspeed out at Straiton. Stirling (about 45 minutes away) has Pentagon window tints (http://www.pentagonglasstech.com), MMV (http://www.mmvperformance.co.uk), DVD, RATS (http://www.ratscaraudio.co.uk) and MOTAC. Peugeot Ecosse are also pretty nearby http://www.ecoss-peugeot.co.uk and they sell tasty Esquiss kit for BMWs.

The site does work, it's just not complete yet. Best bet is to phone them or visit once you move over...
