Joel's first car


It is official - Joel (well actually Todd) is the proud owner of this 1991 BMW 318i. The 3 boys have been tooling around town in this - and have taken it to Brookville a couple of times. Joel driving - Todd in passenger seat and Eli in the back.

Todd dropped Joel off and then left some tread on the road.....boys and cars!!!

Hey Joel,
I hope I don't hear of you leaving too much rubber on the road. That is one sure way to wear out your tyres in double quick time, and mate when you have to start paying the tyre bill you appreciate just what I am getting at. Oh, by the way great car, and Aunty Lesle says drive carefully.

great Joel...I well remember the feeling, even though 17 was some thirty-ish years ago now for me.
So, um, what is the other car in the picture?

No intentions of leaving too much rubber - my dad did it!

I've just completed the first round of maintenance on the car:
-Fuel Pump
-Air Filter
-Fuel Filter
-Oil Change/Filter
-Spark Plugs
-Ran Fuel System/Valve cleaner
-Replaced Broken Foglight
-Timing Chain Tensioner
-Wash/Wax

To come: brakes, suspension work, replace all hoses and belts, some appearance stuff, exhaust, power steering leak.......bout it..
