126 BHP dragging 1400kgs around isn't going to thrill many owners.

At least he's not fitting loads of kit and leaving the 316i engine in there. Given the circumstances it looks like a good effort.

The last picture makes it look like a cut and shut job, surely can't be worth it?

DavS1 · 11-19-2010, 04:21 PM

I wonder if by "bought" he means "acquiered" as the 'shop' looks like it's got a load of err 'parts' lying around, and what with custom taxes....

Still. hats off to the boy!

was thinking the same thing - otherwise why not import a second hand m3 and use that...

Snooky · 11-20-2010, 11:10 AM

Can you imagine explaining that one to the person in the insurance company call centre in India?? Picture the scene....

Call centre worker: "any modifications sir?"

BMW owner: "erm........ahem, just a couple!!!"

Cool job though!

You wouldn't imagine some of the car duty structures some countries have. I know of a few that impose 300% duty on list price of any vehicle imported over 1800cc. Imagine that. I think in Egypt it's around 450% of list price of car.

I'l stick to paying £1.2x for my vpower.

Hats off to him, $460,000 for a M3 is absolutely crazy!!!
