Yesterday I fulfilled a dream by finally becoming an owner of an E9.
Firstly I need to thank @Simufly for selling me his lovely car. Simon had the car for over 40 years and obviously cherished it.
The car is essentially unrestored (it had a sill repair in the past but nothing else) and is in it's original paint. Interior was re-trimmed in leather and it's had few improvements to mechanicals but essentially it's original car.
Today I took it out for my first drive. Only a local drive to the Royal observatory at Greenwich Park, but even so I'm already in love!
Before I post some pics I just want to say thanks to @Keshav, @damienh, @The Don, @Wladek, @sandhu, @Peter Coomaraswamy and everyone else who offered me invaluable advice when I was looking for a car.
