As an avid camping fan I've been thinking how much camping equipment would a Z3 hold? Great article and looking at photo's now I know.
All needed now is a map some factor 25 and a tilley hat, I can almost smell the summer.
Serious food for thought cheers.

tyres
The trouble when looking for tyres is the shear choice and the variation in price for the same brand and quality.I set a buget of £500 for a set fitted it seams alot, but with 190 bhp there the only thing keeping you on the road. In the end I settled on Continental contact sport 3 225/45-245/40 17&q...

Rattle
Before rebuilding car check the basics. Spare wheel tray,spare wheel,battery if in boot isn't loose ,tool tray ,the jack makes a nice rattle even with strap and then is it worse or quieter on different road surfaces.It is amazing how a little rattle sounds so loud when driving.
