Right Cracker Jacks..
The Blister BN 200sx is now living in Germany with its new owner.. so i thought i would do a criss cross and go for something totally different..
So on Wednesday I picked up a 2002 BMW 745i v8 .. had it 2 days now so its time for me to actually run through the bad ass specs on the BMW and why I chose it as a project and Low 'N' Lush Project
For what I paid for the car it came with 90k miles on the car, a full BMW service history with loads of stamps, tax, mot, and a warranty
The cars original price from the factory was 73k with the additional extras to follow (inc pics)
Remote electric open and close boot with soft close, full closure alarm with all windows and sun roof that closes,
Rear heated seats with electric memory for headrests
Rear cup holder with dual 12v soctets in the rear (for 2x laptops or ipads etc) and custom climate for each side of the rear of the car
Fridge and cooled compartment in the centre console, BMW I-Drive system, Heated front seats AND Air Cooled front seats (air con through the seats for a cool bum)
In the front end you have a wireless phone with with direct lines to BMW assistance and and SOS button in the roof hard wired through a facotry hands free kit for both front passengers, above that you have the dual air con with outside smell stopper (yes its a thing), Also infront of the passenger front seat in the dash you have a 6 disk CD changer and another cd/dvd reader in the centre console for filmage etc, the grey square is a pop out dialing pad for the phone
and above that you have the dual screen SAT NAV (full screen or just right hand side) and TV (left hand side only)
Ontop of this the car has full soft close doors so if you close the door 95% of the way so its adjar the car softly closes the door for you so it doesnt slam.. and there is so much more to list.. like the lights under the door handles and factory 19" M-sport Split rims in staggered fitment

So today after writing this I decided the wheels needed a damn good polish, so after 1 hour on a 3" spot on 1 wheel I decided this was an inhuman task and I needed a machine.. but i didnt have one, so set about t-cutting the whole car on any scratches and marks I could spot,
On these 1st 2 the mark is to the right of the door handle bout 6" long like a key mark ... the 2nd pic is it gone thanks t-cut
BEFORE
AFTER
also then blacked all the trims on the car and polished the chrome surrounds on the doors inc the door sills (need to do it again though)
I then went back to the wheels with willpower and did my best to get some of the years of dirt off them
and as we havent got any 272 heroes stickers yet.. I decided these 2 will have to do for now
so at the moment.. the car is shiney as fooook and looks like this
SPRING AND TINTS EN ROUTE... then private plate time
AND FINALLY!!!!
one for you crackers to photoshop down 40mm for me
----------------------------------------------------------------------
THE PLANS!!!! are....
- SPRINGS 1st - 35mm drop for now
source some sort of front splitter
- New exhaust (still stealthed) but to let the v8 Burble sound better
- Tints on the whole car only light smoke tints though
- Private Plate
- ............ work out new plans
Thanks for reading....
sorry for the pic whorage
