Fixed your images for you :)

That N reg 220 seems familiar. If it's the same one, it was built by a guy on here. Was it a NASP originally?

Is one of them yours?

If we're all posting pictures, here's a rare shot of my two together... the green one (still) doesn't get out much.

Image

This was taken during a gearbox rebuild on the red 420.

Nice to see yours badged up as a 214 Dave. Adds to the LOLfactor of these things. Even with big wheels/exhaust, very few people would expect what was hiding underneath. My green 420 (dyno'd at around 250bhp) was badged up like so...

Image

I wanted to keep the Turbo badge just to add insult to injury. Some poor sod in an E46 330i looked absolutely gutted when he eventually caught up :oops:
