Nooooo. Grey leather is nice! These are mine. Although I have been told this interior and the M-tec steering wheel was a rare combination from factory.

Especially as the ones you posted look like in good condition.

May have missed it but what engine is in yours?

I didn't think I liked this by the opening post however seeing it in the light I love it. Love it's rear. Not keen on the wheels mind you.

I think the grey leather would look great. Not a colour I'd choose but they'd be replacing grey seats in a very grey interior. Would make a nice addition imo. They look like they'd clean up well too.

 

[leeds_182]

Leather will look better in there, I'd have thought that grey interior you showed should clean up quite well. Bought it yet ?

Agreed to buy it. Picking it up at the end of the week. For £100 including door cards I don’t think I can really go wrong:

Unless you sell the car before it arrives :tonguewink:

To be fair, if I could find some genuine Bmw 17s I’d probably go for them but they’re all massively expensive. I quite like the alpina multi spoke jobs but at £700 without tyres it’s a no go!

I don’t think it can be ruled out!

Few shots from under da hood.

You're just going to slide about in the leather when getting all driftastic at Maccies

I’ve been looking at wheels and they are mega money. I’m after a set of 18” Style 32’s and in struggling to find a set at a reasonable price. I’m used to cheap French cars!!

Nice mate, where do you find these great cars from......

I just sold a set to a guy in Spain because they sat on eBay for two months

Don’t say these were the £200 set in London? I was about to sort out looking at these and they went.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Sell Clio to help fund holiday, buy cheap BMW, replace clutch, buy leather seats, buy big alloy wheels. Man maths at its best right there 😂

 

[alistairolsen]

Na they were on eBay, listed them for £350 and wound up letting them go for £300 delivered to spain

 

[leeds_182]

Really want some more noise from the exhaust as it’s pretty silent. Looking underneath there are two cats and two massive resonator boxes so will look to possibly having one of the boxes taken out I think.

I struggled to sell a 17” set for an age. Put them on eBay and some bugger on a forum finally decided he wanted them!

 

[cat171]

Style 32's are lovely! I really like them

 

[leeds_182]

Picking up the leather interior tomorrow night and back box delete booked in for Friday.

Picking up the leather interior tomorrow night and back box delete booked in for Friday.

That instantly brought back memories of when I did a back box delete on my E46 330i.

What a mistake that was, it sounded utter shite.

Really? I’ve seen quite a few vids on YouTube and they sound decent! We shall see come Friday dinner time.

Yeah it basically sounded like It had a massive blowing hole / no exhaust system at all lol.
Be interesting to see what yours sounds like :up:

Yikes! It’s only money! I’m leaving the middle box in to try and chill it out.

 

[R3k1355]

Rip the middle box(s) out and leave the backbox :up:

 

[Rojer]

Love this car, looks really clean. Good work!

 

[leeds_182]

Collected. Needs a clean but not bad for £100.

 

[AndyBMX]

I had the grey leather in my second e34, easily the comfiest interior I've ever had.

You've clearly never had a Williams or Valver...

 

[leeds_182]

Exhaust is done.....

RASP!

I quite like it. Sounds awesome on down shifts. Just a shame the cars not all that quick.

Did someone say Boost?

My spider senses think this is going to go in favour of a merc..

I wish. I’m about 4K short plus it’s nearly bike time!

It sounds nice then? Got a video of it?
I want to get a stainless system for mine but not entirely sure what - want some more noise as the 6 cylinder engine sounds sweet. Will be going to Infinity Exhausts as they did a good job on my old Clio's and Octavia's exhaust (Clio have manifold back and Skoda was just a cat back). But being custom made I can ask for whatever but not sure what!

 

[craigyt]

Booooost!

 

[Padso]

Love an E34!

Here's my own S50B32 powered one

 

[leeds_182]

Here’s a vid of the exhaust. It looks like I got the camera wrong but in fact I am actually parked on a really steep hill.

 

[Robdaviesss]

Who does your exhaust stuff local man? I'm wanting a box cut out of my clio as a temp noisemaker until I get a stainless.

The MOT Inspection Manual
8. Nuisance
Issue Date: May 2018
Page 2 of 13
8.1 Noise
8.1.1 Noise suppression system
This inspection applies to all exhaust silencers and under-bonnet noise deadening material fitted as original equipment. The inspection of noise deadening material does not apply to Class 3 vehicles. Exhaust noise should be subjectively assessed whilst carrying out the emissions test relevant for the vehicle. For vehicles not subject to an emissions test, the engine should be revved to around 2500rpm or approximately half maximum engine speed if this is lower. The exhaust system and silencer should be in such condition, or of such a type, that the noise emitted from the vehicle is not clearly unreasonably above the level expected from a similar vehicle with a standard silencer in average condition.

Are a nuisance.
