280CE, Runing, registered and sold!
The 280CE is finished. New muffler, passed blue slip and sold. My brother has purchased the car as he wrote off the BMW that we ‘dismantled’ earlier. That means that it will still be featured on this website from time to time even though I no longer own it.
There are still a few things needed to do on the car, but otherwise it is good to see it on the road again. Those with eagle eyes will notice that the muffler has one pipe, rather than two as is correct for the 280CE. Even an aftermarket muffler for the 280CE was $500-$600, so in the end we purchased a standard muffler of a wider pipe diameter and had the pipes joined together.
