Breaking the rules as not all today, but been a long week broken up with work and trip away.
Got the new daily last friday, has a few small issues which shouldnt be too difficult to sort. So far,
1. Inner door handle replaced
2. Rear door lock replaced
3. Brake pad warning light on dash sorted
4. Interior deep cleaned
5. Exterior wash
6. Wheels changed
7. New front wipers fitted
8. Net optics interior bits fitted.
Awaiting a new gear gaitor to arrive and that should be the cosmetics sorted. Then eventually overhaul the suspension components as they look a bit tired. Great condition for a 16 year old car.

If I’d have known you were after net optics interior set I could have gave you the full thing. Pretty sure I still have them in a box somewhere as I didn’t fit them after buying. 8o| Looks a smart wee daily.

@redanni I would always head to Newcastle over the port. Just prefer it.
If you are in Newcastle, go into the wee cafe right up at the end of the promenade beside the last amusements, it's in between two ice cream shops.
Base company...
Their servings sizes are massive and it's alot cheaper than the likes of mauds and far nicer!

Washed ‘her’ two cars. More than likely going to be holding on to the 3 series for another while instead as insurance for the X5 is extortionate for her. Can’t wait to get the winter wheels back off it though in next couple of weeks and get the M359’s on it.
