I absolutley love P1's and that one is gorgeous.

When the day comes i get a Turbo, a P1 will be on my list of possible purchases.

I love the wheels, i am not normally a fan of messing with special editions too much, but they really suit it, rim style and colour etc.

Well done mate, you should be proud of how it looks.

EddScott, The E30 M3 was Awesome to look at, and to those who "Knew" it didnt half turn heads. Even people who didnt know it's value/pedigree looked.
BUT to some people, it was still just an old D Reg BMW.

I have to admit tho, not as fast as you'd think, leaky and damp etc... (they are old now) also not practical. LHD is ok, but not ideal, especially when trying to drive quick. !

No mate, didn't touch the thing to be honest - totally standard mod wise apart from the back box and d.v.

I am led to believe though that a remap is probably a wise move for prolonged engine life, despite never having any problems with mine during the 3 years of ownership.

Re-map is advisable as any mod you have installed can be properly set up for the car. But also the original Map on the P1 when they was first built by Prodrive made the ECU go twitchy and funny over 112Mph. And thus caused a few Engines to go Pop, as i was told from the main dealership at Falkirk.

Also change the MAF sensor on the P1 every year too for bout £80quid, As this could cause the Fuel to run lean, and also Use high octain fuel Super unleaded of sorts!

Hope this helps Monki.
