alright guys, i finally got me some night pics of my budget m42is. I'm up in Canada and i paid $500 for this car. Now, the only time i feel bad is seeing everyone else's m42s with a good paint and no rust, clean interior and the list goes on. But, i was able to drive this car 70km home going about 160km. now down here our main highways are 400-series and max limit of 100km and if you get caught doing 50km over the limit then you lose your ride and license and $2000 fine minimum. But, I made it home and I fell in love with my strong m42 motor with 239417km in it.:cool:
Take a look... a little time and tender lovin' care is all that is needed.:)

OH MAN... what happened to your car hoevesruperd!! E-30Dubbsz: polish the car with a special politur (theres something in like sand.. not real sand!!! ask in a paint-shop) it peels off the lyer on the top. then polish it like normal and put wax on it!! it will shine as on her birth in germany!!!

what happened to the car is very simple: it lives in quebec which basically means it will encounter the worst winter experiences possible since our government puts more salt on our road than there is in the ocean plus theres about 15 holes in the pavement per stop signs.

PO probably didnt care about that car either
