Over the years I have been a member of various car forums, but this is by far the best. To all of those who have given advice, thank you. Here in the UK we hear all kinds of criticism of the US and it's citizens (even if we rarely belive it, all part of being in 'Europe' I believe), but I have rarely come across a group of people so readily willing to share their valued and valuable (!) experience - just a few to name check (and in no particular order):
winfred, 632regal, bruno, 530itouring, Bimmer Nut Ed, and everybody else (please don't take offence if I missed you out!, and there's a lot of you!). You've all helped me out of many a problem. And the E34 scene is far bigger in the US than Germany itself (as far as I can tell), I speak reasonable German, and talking to enthusiasts over there it appears that they look to the US for many of their ideas, purchases etc. Keep up the good work, and I know there are a good number of Brits out there! Stop being so reticent, and join in!

Toby,

Nice note. It's good to hear the forum has helped you with your touring in the UK. Now, could you please let us win the Ryder Cup every few years or so???? :p Us golfers here in the US would appreciate it!

Wouldn't hurt to share some more M5 body kit snaps of that sweet touring of yours either.

Host/upload your pics for free at www.Photobucket.com and they give you easy img links to paste in here with too!

cheers

Done it already Geoff! (You asked when I first joined the board back in the spring). But here they are again (sorry if it's a bit long winded, I'm not very good at this kind of thing)!

Matt,

If I still lived in Carrollton I'd be there in a heartbeat. Unfortunately the drive from NorCal is a little too long. But it would be sweet . . .
