Bimmer Owners Club

Hi Michael....welcome to the Forum What is wrong with the engine and what size is it? I would be tempted to break down the task individually, e.g. take the car to a garage for the engine to be sorted and then MOT it whilst there, then take it to a Trimmers for them to sort the roof. I think you'll find that a restoration company would only outsource the engine work, trimming and even the MOT so why not organise those jobs yourself and save loads of money in the process. Let us know how it all progresses as have the same car sat in my garage for the last couple of years Cheers, Trevor

Hi Mike...that's a trick idea...do you have any pics of the installed lamps?

very nice and practical as well 🙂

Hi Annie from Somerset....welcome to the Club Feel free to post up a piccy of your Bimmer if you like. Good to have you onboard Cheers, Trevor

I would advise changing the grade to a 5W30 or even the recommended oil from BMW as this should make some difference to the consumption rate and also be more beneficial to the engine as it is now in the 'high-miler' club.
