I washed the beater e30 for the first time since I’ve owned it:

I havent driven it in a few weeks and it sat under a tree, so you can imagine how bad it was. Bird poop and pollen everywhere. So bad the water turned YELLOW.

And, despite popular belief, the 951 not only runs, but it drives too 😉 Got everything sorted out except for a small coolant leak which I’m going to take care of after I go get a celebratory garbage plate
