Transmission fault & front wing damage notwithstanding, I thought I was giving SMGData a solid car. How was I to know the head gasket was about to go? It never overheated, the coolant never showed up in the oil or vice versa and I never saw evidence of leakage out the side of the engine. Honest.

I loved being the guy who rocked this as his daily driver. I forgave the car much, just because it was so darned pretty.

When the transmission went "Christine" on us and drove the car into a light pole as it tried to run over my wife. There's really no coming back from an offense like that.

Series 3 with 7" lights and pepper pots. Photo at J&G Automotive. 2017 - It's hard to believe it's been almost 3 years since I got this car. Still feels like my "new" car.

Taken by Heather on our way to the first BAJrs run as the new custodians of this car. I felt considerable pressure to show I'd cared for it well.

First day for it's post-purchase (is it as good as I think it is?) inspection at J&G where it got a clean bill of health and hailed as an unusually good example of a series III. So, yay!

I'd never have guessed when I photographed this beautiful series III in January that I'd be the registered owner the following October. Feeling fortunate.
