My Ride: E61 535D
Default Hello All

Hi all, I'm Jake.

I have just recently picked up my second BMW, a 2005 535d. It's not the cleanest but it has some redeeming features that I love, mainly being super practical & also being previously tuned so more than quick enough and surprises a few people.
I bought this with as a project to make the best daily I could for as little £ as possible, the car has done 188k but mechanically is good & I picked it up for what I think is a steal at £1k.
So far it's had a service, brakes, MOT, at home paint correction & headlights restored. To do are fix an issue I have with a radio, try my hand at repairing the lacquer peel and other wear and tear work, restoring a set of style 95's I got free with it to put on or flip - and of course just enjoying it.

I am based nr Bridport Dorset
