Beautiful! Got a picture?

Here's one of mine to add to the festive E30 merriment. I was using mine as a daily up until December when the head corroded through and now it's off the road awaiting the successful hunt for a good head (as it were!).

They are great bits of kit, like I commented earlier starting to prefer my E30 over my new one.

They are brilliant cars. Really well put together and every journey is an event.

I love them. The 325i especially is still quick enough to shock some modern equipment. only drawback is that they don't have the protection that modern cars do (I've got two little nippers). Use the 530d touring for them.

What I really like about them is that you can do alot of maintenance on them yourself - they aren't daunting at all. Plus every journey I do in it is special (have I said that already?!)

I love the 'never show the whole car in a single photo' mentality.

Nice looking (parts of) car though smile

996CPS - is that a pre-facelift sport you've got there? LSD? Any other goodies?

E30's are from the era where BMW were decent cars, not boggo repmobiles.

My housemate has an E30 Touring sitting in the yard waiting restoration. It gets started once or twice a year to move it. Needs jumpleads, but starts first turn.
