Hello!

I bought my fifth BMW: -97 318ti M-sport just a few months ago.

I have been reading this forum since, and decided to register.

-Petex

ps. Sorry about my bad English.

Hello new member, I would love to see that car of yours. Why is it that no one harassed me about posting pics when I was a new member?

Itīs still winter here in Finland, and weather is awful.
I will take pictures of her some nice day, when sun is in the sky and I can wash it properly.
In just few weeks we are able to chance the summertyres on. Now itīs fitted with ugly 15" alloys and wintertyres. (or is it tires )

Welcome to the forum.
I know what you mean about winter. I still have 4 feet of snow in my yard and my car has been stored since the end of November. I'm starting to get a twitch...

Cheers,
