Am I mad?

[Baked_bean]

Hey guys,
I'm basically thinking of buying a very slightly rusty e30 320i with 12 months ticket for 300 or so pounds (depending on my dealing). It only needs to get me about for a few months but it will need tax though. Is this a silly idea? I'm having doubts you see.
Thanks

As long as you won't be too upset if you end up losing your £300 if it turns out to be a lemon, then go for it.

If it drives ok, why are you having doubts?

Sounds like a brilliant idea to me...

Even if it is a lemon, you can sell it on with at very most a hundred quid loss..

I havnt driven it yet but I'm going to view it with the aim to buy it on Monday. Wish me luck.

If it does drive/feel ok you'll end up keeping it for more than a few months!

Great cars IMO. Years ago a mate had an auto e30 320i snotter. It'd had a hard life and was pretty much on its last legs...... but that engine!

It still purred beautifully.
