Considering the quality job done by the valet team at BMW, I figured it's the cleanest it's ever gonna be. Shame I wasted it with a potatocam.

This is excellent.

Just so you know, I've installed an anti-jkm7680 alarm.

Oooh looking sharp. I bet it's a hoot to drive—I had a blast with the Octavia wagon I drove in Switzerland.

Good link. I didn't plan to take pics. I just happened to spot a fairly well lit car park on the way home.

So far so good! It's not fast, but it's got a bit of punch with some great mid-range torque. I've only been out in it twice so far.

Dammit! Sm70 installed one of those also because I keep trying to steal his rims.

Car looks top notch though! Anything planned for it?

I'm not really sure just yet. I want to do something to it, but at what level I just don't know. I've bought a big but well-used Mont Blanc roof box for it, which I'll spray matte black, and some Thule roof bars.

Any and all suggestions welcome!

Ooohhhh, sounds nice! Powdercoat the wheels black maybe?

They've just been refurbed by the dealership, so no! I would consider a second set of wheels though, and different tyres. The set on the car are Evergreens(?) and while pretty damn good in the dry, are supposed to be borderline dangerous in heavy wet.

The main things that must not change on this car (for these reasons are why I've bought it) are: anything that decreases mpg, anything that is detrimental to ride quality, anything that removes/reduces practicality.

Not bad at all then! Just watch out for brake dust, haha.

Really like that blue though, looks just about perfect on that car.
