Hi, thought I'd put a thread up about my E30, an ex-German 1991 215bhp model, with just over 86,000 miles at the moment. I've been the owner since 2011, and before that it belonged to someone in Jersey for a good few years, who used to bring it over to Munich Legends for the servicing

Anyway, not used it since last year because of the winter, so been having some prep work done before the summer. And will be going down to the Classic Le Mans in July in it, as not brought it on a trip for a couple of years

Few pics, hope you like them:

One of my all time favorite cars, if money wasn't an issue, then I'd have one in a heartbeat.

Superb, the best era for car design [imo] A separate thread for each car is required. Including the e34.

Thanks guys, glad you like it

Must do some more on the other cars if there's interest. The '99 E36 is one of the later made, so is loaded with kit including SMG. Some people don't like it, but I do. The E34 is avus blue '93 car and something I always wanted. The Mini has 264bhp at the last test and likes petrol biggrin

Here it is at the Irish Festival of Speed last year. The M5 was being sold early last year here in Ireland, and despite having 150k miles it had a stack of work done to it previously, so we decided to buy it between us and share any running costs. It's a 1993 3.8 with Nurburgring pack that was originally bought new in Warrington. Currently sitting in my garage on SORN from the winter, but must bring it back out again soon
