thanks pierrez1, I took a trip to my local dealer who found them in a Schnitzer brochure, however when they arrived they turned out to be the valves with normal dust cap on them.

They are going to contact Schnitzer for me so I will be keeping my fingers crossed.

Best regards

Some low life has nicked the dust caps off my wheels. The flippin car is hardly ever left anywhere either!

If anyone knows where I can get some replacements I would be very grateful.

They are Scnitzer Type III two piece wheels.

Cheers all.

Had an S50 ///M from 1998 to 2004 and have now had an S54 for nearly 3 months.

Just spotted a Dakar Z3 with the Reg ****AD passing in front of my house in the midst of the Kent countryside. Good to see they were enjoying the sun, top down! Just about to give Charlotte a good polish and then we're off to St. Albans then to Twickenham tomorrow to see Genesis. Will just about hav...

Cheers Dan, I did have a look but must have overlooked it in the brochure.

Looks like I will be in contact with the local stealer tomorrow!

Does anyone know if there is a Schnitzer steering wheel available for the ///M? I have often thought that the wheel has a very hard and dare I say it cheap feel to it compared to the rest of the car. The wheel on our 330Cd is much more tactile and also feels a little more 'racy' if that is possible....

Cheers Justin will give it a try.

Took advantage of the beautiful weather and gave the car a good polish. Found quite a funky stubby aerial on thee bay which just screwed on. Quite pleased with it for a few quid! The front splitter is being re- sprayed next week and a professional polish to finish off so should be deeply shiny then....

A brisk drive through the lanes of Kent is usually accompanied by Bryan Adams - Never be another tonight, or Frankie goes to Hollywood's version of Born to Run......."Sorry I've left my card at home" etc...etc... May sound totally random but try driving slowly to either song! Best regards ...

I like to think I am ahead of the times but M Roadster in '88, doubt it. I think I was driving a Fiat X1/9 then!

Carrid out the first mod today - the "Khushy" seat mod - makes a subtle but quite noticable difference. Lifts the front of the seats by about 30mm so you feel like you are sitting in it, not on it if you see wat I mean. Total cost £2.70, time 15mins! Many thanks to Khushy who showed be thi...

After a long search, missing a few and rejecting a few, finally have the S54 I was looking for. Its been 3 years without an M Roadster ('spose the 6 series softened the blow a little) so I'm like a dog with two tails now!! The car is an absolute credit to it formers owners, and I will ensure that it...

Any ideas on price so I can use it as a bargaining tool!

There has been a few posts about refurbing the shadowline wheels, however I dont think anyone came up with a definitive answer.

Has anyone had them done (South East perhaps) if so where, and if not too rude how much?

Think DavidM was about to at some point.

Cheers for any help.

Thanks guys, think I will change the head unit first off.

Indeed it is the Borough Green in Kent (can't be another surely)!!!

Should take delivery week after next hopefully, and no, I dont intend to sell this one, made that mistake with my first

Will shortly be taking delivery of an S54 within the next week or so and want to find out if there is an input to the Business head unit (where a multi CD would have gone) for my iPod? This may have been asked before so forgive me if I havent searched thoroughly enough. Also any good speaker upgrade...

Have been looking for an S54 and have seen an ad for one which states it has a 6 speed box. I was under the impression that they were on ly made with the 5 speed boxes due to limited space in the transmission tunnel. (or was that just the S50s) Also, met a taxi driver earlier in the year who said he...

Any chance of a bit more info, would possibly be interested as a project.

Have missed mine terribly for a couple of years!

Best regards
