Had a passat welded to my rear bumper earlier until I got to the first roundabout and he nearly rolled it :D got to love the bmws ability to go through roundabouts like they aren't even there

Same!!! Just today, passat as well. Never ceases to amaze me how well BMWs handle, you don't have to thrash them you can just be doing 100km/h but you're doing 100km/h everywhere regardless of bends/corners :D LOVE it.
Car was in for test, told I need bushes for the front. New wishbones, bushes and balljoints done just in August gone. Also put in evo mounts reversed for more neg camber.
Now are they thinking the wheels are at an odd angle because of bush wear? If there is no wear would I get away with just throwing back on the normal mounts rather than having to take out the wishbones and get bushes pushed in?

Some facts on the E46 M3;
The (SG 6, Getrag D, S6S420G) transmission is the same transmission used on the E39 M5 and E52 Z8.
Body rigidity is achieved by the use of additional gusset plates and weld points. Reinforcement in the C-pillar and in the luggage compartment.
Has additional Caster (+8 degrees).*The V-Strut that connectes the rear axle carrier carrier to the body has a small plate panel that is curved to add cooling to the differential.
The E46 M3 does not have ServoTronic like the E39 M5.
BMW recommends to adjust valves at every Inspection.
The S54 block has 3 knock sensors. Each sensor for 2 cylinders.
The "bare" block weighs approx. 105lb. (48kg)The crankshaft is forged steel.
*Connecting rods are reinforced forged steel and are "cracked".Weight optimized (+/- 4 grams).
Only one set of connecting rods (the same weight class) is available to maintain balance.*
Pistons are graphite coated cast aluminum (full slipper skirt). Weighs approx. 470 grams.
Uses a floating wrist pin.Pistons are cooled by oil spray nozzles that spray underneath it.Does not use an electric heated thermostat.
Exhaust valve is sodium filled to ehance cooling.*
Normal operating pressure for the fuel system is 5BAR.*VANOS operating pressure is 100 BAR.An integrated ambient barometric pressure sensor is integrated into the DME
