Hi @TM,

this is Thorsten from Berlin, Germany.

Bought a 2012 M3W (chasis number 18 so it seems to be a very early model with the original welded BV box mountings) ) this winter from sweden and learning now about all the pro's and con's of this funny little guy. Seems to be a good friend to my RNineT ;-) ...



In a first step I added an wooden steering wheel with an alloy spacer (to get a litte more space for my legs) and a wooden dashbord instead the ,in my eyes terrible looking, original.

Next task will be to fix an oil leckage on the BV (incoming drive shaft) and im afraid I would need the Centa Coupling Mod from Phil , because of terrible noise when accelerating hard ...

Welcome Thorsten a lovely looking car and bike. Your steering wheel and dash look really individual, enjoy your adventures.

Going back a few years there was a young lady in Berlin with a white M3W that posted on here.

Welcome Thorsten! That is indeed a very early car. Don't forget to add it to the M3W REGISTRY thumbs

+1 welcome Thorsten!

A great looking car and I like the dashboard.

Re the noise on acceleration, check if you still have an alloy rear sprocket. If so this is more likely to be causing the noise than the compensator.

The compensator will rattle at idle or very low revs but quieten down as you accelerate.

cheers
