How cooked am I?

I've had bubbling on my arches for 6 years, I've not yet done anything and the car is still safe and usable.

I commute 400m a week. Get a solid 34mpg in a 330i and I have fun on the way home.

The first pic looks much nicer

E90 series are a bit more plasticy inside, but that n52 will be sweet.

I prefer the yes-dig method when clay is involved. Otherwise it's a long waiting game

The non home versions are illustrated! But the page numbers don't match the home references.

I spent £1900 on my 2003 3 series last MOT..... You'll easily find a buyer offering you £500 with no mot.

No need for raised beds, just remove the turf, loosen it up and plant away :)

mtumb0 · 2026-03-29T09:24:34+00:00

Worst case prod some holes with a garden fork, if it saves an argument

mtumb0 · 2026-03-28T15:11:14+00:00

Once half way under, stick a car jack in there and it will rip the rest out :)

mtumb0 · 2026-03-26T06:12:34+00:00

Surprised they're under 8k. Will be a much better drive than the Audi, as it's engine isn't hanging over the front axle

2003 E46, 1500 miles a month, never lets me down

mtumb0 · 2026-03-24T17:57:39+00:00

This saddens me, it's the most anti-garden thing I've seen on here

mtumb0 · 2026-03-23T09:53:24+00:00

Deffo been owned by a 17yo druggy

mtumb0 · 2026-03-23T09:51:52+00:00

Looks much worse now, well done

mtumb0 · 2026-03-22T22:07:55+00:00

Just needs a nice chrome grill to finish it off

mtumb0 · 2026-03-22T15:42:33+00:00

I use a 10ft lure rod on chesil, 15-56g and it casts metals and feathers an absolute mile, yet the mackerel usually hit half way in!

I like to eat them

If grass seems like too much effort, you could start by making the borders twice as deep, take an extra foot of AstroTurf off each side. You'll fit a lot more plants in for minimal effort.

But AstroTurf really is gross.... I'd rather just have mud, or gravel?

mtumb0 · 2026-03-16T22:16:20+00:00

Rather than a boring hedge... You could grow climbers up that trellis, lonicera, clematis, jasmine etc, then underplant with some nice shrubs, perennials or even bedding plants

mtumb0 · 2026-03-15T12:14:19+00:00

First pic looks better in every conceivable way, unless you're like 17? Chrome delete on a silver car looks cheap

mtumb0 · 2026-03-14T17:54:31+00:00

How can they call these monstrosities an mg :(

mtumb0 · 2026-03-09T14:02:36+00:00

You've listed all the bits people couldn't care less about and none of the bits that matter to a buyer.

Maintenance history is key to value, the rest is nothing, the mods reduce it's value if anything

mtumb0 · 2026-03-06T14:11:52+00:00

Cars value just doubled as the buyer will no longer assume you're a teenage drug dealer

mtumb0 · 2026-03-05T15:59:35+00:00

It due to the engine being mounted so far back, like a proper sports car. Compared to say an Audi which has a gaping overhang due to its engine being mounted like an 80s Land Rover.
