Perfect :thumbs: now we're talking :beer:

OK cleaning continues, is it as simple as it looks to remove the front black plastic that covers the bottom of the engine...want to get all the wax off it seems easier off the car than on.

Solved the problem with the rust in the brake discs, pics tomorrow after I finish the first one to see if you all approve.

Also want to remove the offending, rusting (hardly) rear muffler box so I can get it coated with a hight temp paint is that just a matter of undoing the flange bolts and then the taking the 2 nuts off the rubber blocks at the sides???

Thanks

Yep the 4 flange bolts, and the 6 bolts that hold the rubber mounts to the car.
Be careful it weighs 25kg!!!

The plastic under tray is easy to remove as you rightly suspect. ;)

Hi mate,

there were 27 all together from BMW Australia... i used to own the 3rd one... great car and I saw your car on the internet for a couple of weeks, was really tempted to get it... but wife didn't like the idea...

Great purchase mate for 150K since it was 240K back in 2003/04!

cheers,

richie

Seems to be a few different figures going around about how many, I had heard 24 from 3 different sources so your 27 is new information. Guess I'll check with BMW at some stage to clarify for sure. Fron CSL to Gallardo S nice!!!! I'm jealous.

At that list price guess that make the $140k purchase price even better:wink:

Yep even my grannie could have done that one.

What about the metal cover thats next in line held on by several bolts and anything else????

27 is definitely correct... 'insider information'... 2 black and 25 grey...

there was a 360 in between the the CSL and the Gallardo... and if I could, I would have grabbed that CSL of yours... very good buy mate and keep on to it, it will definitely keep its value (at least here in australia)!

cheers,

richie

I would like to make it 28! What are my chances of bringing mine over as a presonal import later this year? Just to increase the numbers of Black ones!

Had a quick look on the DOTARS web-site, but don`t fully understand??

In point 5 which of the criteria do you meet to import a car, if its none your f....ed:bigcry: or are you going to be point 7 a visitor for an extended time?? Then I can figure it out from there.
