Is there any rust on the car, like the sills where they join the fron wings or up under the rear wheel arches?
Has it had any paintwork?
Any chance of the full reg to do a hpi check?

gotta say i saw this about 3 days ago, i didn`t phone for one reason........ location , not geographical location but ..........well something put me off.

If there was a problem with the cyl. head would the compression still be o.k.? is it possible that a fault which developed in the head could let water into the combustion chamber but not alter the compression ratio by much (....11.5 bar?) The steam out of the back sounds pretty ominous to me even wi...

Thanks alot Demlotcrew, does this mean my valve is knackered? is it repairable or do i need to get a new one? maybe secondhand from a zoner?? euro list a kit at less than Ã‚£1 would that be the gasket for this part or should i get a new valve? at either Ã‚£59.00 or Ã‚£99.00 depending on the type fit...

If you have replaced the bulb you might have a dodgy contact, this has happened with me before I would take out the bulb and check that the contacts on the bulb are touching the right place in the bulb holder. .......im no expert (at all) just my 2 penneth edit: maybe check the wiring on the holder ...

Hi, i have a problem with my old E 30, when the water gets up to temp the "junction" of plastic pipes which go into the heater matrix (on the left as you crouch looking at the underdash area) are leaking, the car has to get up to temp first but when it does the water pours out! Has anyone any idea w...

so, slightly off topic but the same rules apply By the same token because i drive a 1.8 shitter i do not have a right to state an opinion? so because i have not given Jodie Marsh, Jordan or that silly c0w Jade *one* i should not have the opinion of them as fame hungry money grabbing slappers? Or tha...

No Lambo has those wheels. I think he meant to say Lambo style. There is also more than 3 of the kits ever made. I know cause i have the 1st one in the Country and there was 7 made here. wonder why there's only 3 in existence, mebee its toooo chavvy or toooo expensive for even the most chavvyist of...

I know the centre bore is about 56mm and the E30 centre bre is around 75mm but does anyone know if a) the centres can be bored out to fit and b) the offset is reasonably sorrect, will they then fit,

Hi, can you please help me? My car was smashed yesterday, something backed into me...... and i think it`s totalled my 318i, i still need to drive it for a short while, but it won`t start on the key, it will bump and once started it will restart 2 minutes later, again on the key but if i leave it for...

I had a similar experience with a corolla gt many years ago, it hurts! Luckily it sounds as if Matty325 never actually bought the offending vehicle. ...me too with a Lancia Delta! gutted but thenin my case it was my own fault for not looking properly in the first place ! i was young and i had made ...

I had a `96 C 180 manual box, (yup a 1.8!) must have been similar to the 190 (no ? yes ? ) it was o.k. very very well made and had done lots of miles but a totally different car to the e30 it was just a family saloon car not really a sporty saloon car even if it was lowered, badged as an esprit (the...

. god dude i hope your having a gigle! Pirelli have never made a bad tyre. In fact none of the top 6 or so manufacturers in the world have, there may be the odd exception as with the 4x4 tyre made in America for a Ford 4x4 vehicle. The top manufacturers are, Bridgestone, Dunlop, Goodyear, Michelin, ...

......yeah, maybe your right (more than likely!) it just really p155ed me off so much everytime i get out of bed in the morning now i check to see if my luverly old bimmer is still there!

NNNnnnoooooo 3 ...

But how can it work? the noisey cam on my 318i is because the cam lobe and associated followers e.t.c. have worn parts, about .5 mm ( yes, .5 mm) worn from the lobe and the foot is almost flat at the point of contact. This is at least in part due to the oilway in the camshaft oil feed pipe, being a ...

Hi, i`m a newbee! :D I bought my first Bm, a 1990 318i a couple of days ago. It`s got a bit of a rattle, camshaft is worn and so are a couple of followers and lifters.
