Right hopefully I've cracked the picture posting.
I'll start with a piccy of the base car, it's a 1.9 narrow body for £1100 including travel to Swansea and driving back selling off the bonnet and other bits the total came to £970. I've got to get this picture thang cracked
Thanks redratbike for the hint so here goes.

I think I've cracked it, when purchased one of the faults was a fuse blowing removed the sleeve and bingo then a new MOT straight thru now I take it apart no disc cutter required

thanks guys, Chris is going to stick some more on here and the Z3 is a lovely drive but that compares to the spyder and a jago geep. The spyder is going to be painted for early next year slowly coming back together........
Hi Hutson, yes the original BMW colour with 2 black stripes like a dodge viper, I've some pictures but as you can see from the begining of the thread I'm having trouble uploading them. It's not painted yet but I'm using it daily to find any niggles before the paint goes on early next year, regards PAT
Walter hi, I have a set of those mirrors but they are not very good as mirrors but look good on the car still trying to find the best place on the doors or forward on the wings, my rear lights are BMW from a 2002 with a red lamp in the drivers side clear lens as a fog lamp,I'll try and get some more pictures on later cheers Pat..
Pat - If you put your mirrors on the door then mount them further back than on mine. I have to use a small child's hand to fit the bolts inside the doors. Also the passengers side is purely cosmetic unless you want to look at the pavement behind you as you drive.
The thrust bearing has just eaten it's way through the clutch bugger was making a noise should have done it sooner, got to be done as shes going to Chris n Dan for a remodelling on friday....

Bad luck Pat, my clutch failed while I was paying for dyno time so I know how you feel.
It started with a bit of a squeak, it's not just the thrust bearing it has destroyed the plate, cover, the duel mass flywheel (all the rivets rolled out the bell housing) and the thrust bearing housing tube on the gearbox, I'll still be at Chris 'n' Dans on Friday...
Got it in one Mr towed, it's flattened the sides and raised the arch I'm more than pleased with the out come and also resolved my filler hole problem, now awaiting the Audi TT cover. I shall endeavor to get my photos on now I've redone my browser. Chris did a brilliant job and I learnt a few tricks of the trade had a good natter and a laugh and done in a day 8.30 till 4.30. She should look good when I get the taller tyres on and the paint in Febuary,,,,,,, cheers
