  Did the brake lines get picked up on the most recent MOT or a case of out of sight, out of mind?

  I got the front-to-rear brake lines and fuel lines done on my e34 last week - costly but worth it for peace of mind (and in the case of the brake lines, to get it through the MOT).

  Thanks - good timing, its coming back from the garage after an extended stay to get a bunch of stuff sorted... fuel and brake lines, suspension, emissions and some welding...

  Very interested in the CD43. How much would you want? And would you mind pointing me in the direction of the plug-in... been googling but can only find US based companies and costing $150+.

  Doesn't the owner of driftworks have these on his turbo?

  My new E34 went in for its MOT. I knew it was going to fail on a couple things (namely corroded brake pipes) but there are a few other things that need sorting that are beyond my driveway axle stand level of mechanics. I normally try and seek a really good independent that specialises in the mark (e.g. MRC for AUDI S/RSs)... my default would have been Munich Legends for older BMWs but recent stories on here have made me think otherwise.

  Anyone got any other recommendations? Preferably SW of London - Surrey/Sussex way.

  Hmmm, in a weird way very glad to hear this as it might make the decision a lot easier.

  Can you make outgoing calls from the Continental? Or just answer when called?

  Heart says Blaupunkt Bremin SQR but wallet says something more like the Continental.

  Picked this up yesterday. Bit of a project with a fair list of to-dos already.

  Cracking on with the oily bits but also want to upgrade the stereo as the current one is a bit shagged. First the head unit - question is what is the forum approved period looking head unit? Needs Bluetooth connectivity for Spotify, calls, waze from my iPhone.
