    Can be picked up for around 250 on eBay for good clean set.

    I'd say you'd get a free swap with someone. The Alu hex was the no cost option on the M-Sport, so there's probably loads of F10's around with that, and people wishing they had the swanky Piano Black option.

    Ahh I'll happily just buy the cleanest set of hex I can find and then sell my own when I have them changed over it shouldn't be too hard to sell them they are scratch free.

    Picked up the wheels today after a refurb at Wheel Wizards along with 4 new tyres, so thought it was only fair to give her a wash..

    There's no better start to the Summer, randomly going on a late evening spin, with little traffic, semi decent roads and a pair of V8's :D

    I picked up my new daily driver this week and with me being off work and the weather being good I decided to take me wee buck to the beach.... the fact that the beach may be 50km away on the best driving roads in the country on fanad head in county Donegal was a concidence.

    On the car itself I like it but coming from a WRX impreza it's a bit of a change despite being a VRS.

    I'd say if a cat seen that 640 it would decide to sit on the next car because it knows it would just slide off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,140 ✭✭✭James Bond Junior


    I would say there’s quite a few women who slide off if they sat on it seeing that....:pac::pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,231 ✭✭✭MarkN


    Ha! I took some photos to have in case it ends up on Carzone but I’m just not sure if I’m ready to do it when I look at her all scrubbed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,469 ✭✭✭Asmooh

    Spent a few weeks in Canada last month and this was my trusty wagon for the two weeks, before reverting back to public transport.

    I can confirm that cats love ruining the panoramic roof on 6 series with mucky paw prints.

    Be interested to know the reg of that 300zx. Looks identical to the one I had except the alloy wheels. I also smacked the front passenger side. 3.0 twin turbo automatic, grey cloth seats?

    89 C... Was automatic, converted it to manual myself :D no smack on the front or anywhere on the car bar a few scuffs here and there, a credit to the fella I got it off for keeping it in great shape :cool: when did you have yours?

    There were a set of buckled Lenso wheels on it, not fit for much else apart from propping up scrappers at home

    As big as it is, I found it pleasant to drive. Soft suspension meant that it rolled quite a bit in corners and when you stopped it, it would very slightly rock back and forth. Not the quickest machine either. Tech was poor in comparison to my Golf.

    But great for covering the miles we had to travel and with 6 travelling including suitcases it was perfect.
