Just been browsing through this site and I have to own the first three cars listed for sale.

It's a shame I'm skint and have nowhere to keep them, but there's nothing wrong with dreaming is there?

In fact, I have to have that M3, how much can I get for a kidney at todays prices?

Lovely car - tried to find a black, rhd version with aircon a couple of years ago but the right car never comes up just when you want it

Love looking on that guys website, I'd love to know where he finds all these timewarp condition 80s BMWs.

Anyone know how much he was asking for the M3, looks like it's sold now, it's got deposit taken at the price bit.

8995, which for the mileage and condition seemed a fair price.

I knew it wouldn't hang around at that price, these gusy tend to sell their cars fairly quickly.

I thought the RHD versions used the rack and stuff from the 325i, and the steering suffered as a result - they were all after market conversions?

Utterly gorgeous cars though

I believe Birds did a few conversions using the 325i rack, but the factory didn't do them officially as the steering column fouled the tuned exhaust system and the car lost power.
