1992 E32 BMW 735i, 1994 Mercedes-Benz W202 C250, 2006 Suzuki Swift, 2002 Mahindar
Ok i have to say, i've put myself in this spot, as all you guys have got mint photo's of your cars....... I love my car but unfortunately, i shifted country, some years ago, and brought my car along, i don't get to drive it here at all much as the roads where i live don't exactly go hand in hand with my car.......
The pics i'm showing of the car in my garage, it is sooooo dirty and unsed i know i'll get cursed for it... but at the moment, i've had to concentrate on my house, and a kid so the car has been put into the shed until i can get round to it.... most of the stuff i'll have to get done by a local mechanic, as here the Local BMW dealer is 850kms away....... it's a tad difficult to get a routine service hence the reason why i've just locked her away!!!!
I know she is in a state, but i'm posting as i was asked to, looking at the forums i know that you have to show you're car.......
It is a 1996 E36 M3, moddified with AC Schinitzer, Equipment, Type II Adjustable Suspension, AP Racing 4pot Front Brake Conversion, you can see the Rusty tinged larger Disc... 18" Wheels, Schintzer Carbon Fibre rear
diffuser, Quickshift.... Front Strut Brace..... Engine is standard save for an AMD ECU Map.
Here are some pics.....I know the car is in a rough state, but over the next couple of months i'll update the pics as she gets back in shape......
Hope these will be ok!!!!!!

If i need help in getting it back in shape, i'll be asking!!!!!
Thanks for now.... sivsk

Welcome...
Given the roads in India and the lowered suspension, your car might not survive the potholes and speedbreakers 
How come you didnt get an Indian plate? It looks like it still has a UK plate on it.

Hey Guys, Yeah the roads are shot to hell, i live in a place called trivandrum, and they are in the process of fixing the roads here, the result more craters...... Yeah i've still got my old UK plate on it, as well it does'nt hit the road much at all......... i got it registered a year agao, With a KL01 Plate but i just cant drive it right now, so she is off the road till the road gets sorted by then i'll have to get a new RC book to get it back on the road.......
But i'll get it back on the road soon, i had to get a new fuel pump recently as since the tank was, less than half full, the pump died, well actually the level was probably on the reserve tank so the original pump died, that was a real hassle to get and i finally got it last month, but touch wood she cranked 1st time.......... i'll post a pic with clean brake discs this week... like i said step by step!!!!!
I'll post pics of the road by home as well, give everyone an idea, why my neighbours and family call me a dumb**** for keeping the car!!!!!!
