Yay, I'm back in the E30 fold. Today's purchase:



Can't wait to pick it up, even if it does only have two thirds of an engine.

Nice work. Looks so very right.

How many e30s is that, now, amongst te regulars? Z, Punt and me... any others?

Me, if I'm classed as a regular.

I had an E30 race car many years ago.

I know, hence the winky on the original post. TRX GTs are £395 apiece currently, so not a million miles off.

Just makes you realise how relatively cheap BMWs currently are, especially comparing standard equipment levels and technological advances between then and now.

About as good as engine noises get

The car you were sad about selling a few days ago didn't happen to be a competitor to the GTA, did it?

I want that more than I've ever wanted anything with a diesel engine, ever. In silver, black or grey I wouldn't care, such is the allure of Imolarot.

No modern BMW is utterly superb in the metal IMO especially the F10 3 series, what a dog.

BMW have really lost their style, the cars from the 90's and mid 2000's were so much better looking.

Seen a few but can't say my bucket of wantage is overflowing for one.

I'm in a big red GT car mood this evening.

Something that Loon might be able to relate to:
