Don’t be shy about posting too many pictures :)
Especially of your fab new car in exotic locations! |
Good evening , i took the SWB for an early MOT today and it passed! so have an MOT in place untill 22/06/20 . One item that i knew had changed from last year was that an ABS warning light had to be fitted and working , for those who have retained the Z3 instrument panel there would be no effect but if like me you have replaced the Z3 panel with separate gauges and warning lights it could be something to be aware of , Geoff .
|
Mine is registered as a 250 California, there are no details available to the MOT tester to say it has airbags so it passes. Could you get away with the same argument for ABS?
Sneaky! |
Evening Steve the way it was explained to me was because the car still has ABS fitted then there should be a warning light , whereas there are obviously no air bags installed no warning light is reqd . It would be interesting to hear if others had had similar conversations with their MOT man Geoff .
|
I wonder if you could get away with a putting the warning lights you don't want to see in the glove box or similar?
The warning lights are there and are lit up when required but just don't ruin the dash aesthetics. |

Lovely set of wheels, sets it off nicely. Look like my MWS and the same tyre size too, from what I can see. Pure class mate.

Very nice stance now. What are your tire sizes?

Are they adjustable, look as if you could drop another inch or maybe 2.
just noticed the side windows are wind up, look much better. What has been done to them? New aide windows along with the rear window made a great visual improvement. |

Molleur the tyres are 205/65/15 , thanks Geoff . |
Eibachs give it a perfect stance, had them on mine. They do settle a bit so it will end up ever so slightly lower.
The dishing and offset on the wheels makes huge difference - looks spot on. Have you done anything to the track on the front, I can't imagine those wheels would've gone under the arches on my Kalifirnia. Wish Grassbank had been around! |
