    Haha it's alright I suppose! Front could use some work, but I've got some other bits to sort first

    Thanks dude. They are easy to make look cool with the right set of wheels.

    Here's a couple of snow pics with the daily, still having some tyre trouble, so will probably order 2 new fronts next month, I'm currently super skint.

    Yeah, thank you man. Wheels were just a good deal. Had some unfortunate issues with fitting the tyres however, so I've ordered two new rears

    Cheers lads, appreciate it.

    So a few weeks a go I was refitting the viscous fan. It slipped off as I was about to tighten it up and put a hole in the radiator. Wonderful, right?

    So as I stood there watching litres of old coolant flow out, I figured I'd go ahead and replace a few bits of the cooling system, since I'm fairly sure it was all the original stuff and I want to take it abroad this year and we all know how much E36's love to overheat.

    So, what I changed - The water pump, thermostat, thermostat housing, aux belt tensioner, aux belt and the radiator with BMW coolant. I tried to use as many OEM like parts as I could, as a few parts are quite important.



    Keen to get it all done today, I got the new rad out to swap some bits over and I ran into my first problem. Wrong rad! I think this is for non air con car. But I should be able to swap it tomorrow.



    I pressed on however and got all the other parts fitted. New pump in with the aux tensioner as well as the thermostat, housing and belt.







    I picked up some new wheels for the daily as well. £100 for some staggered 17's, I thought those days were long gone, but apparently not!





    Now I can continue with my 9j square set up on the silver Touring
