E30 Zone

Ello All. A little story to tell. Coming back from dropping the girlfriend off in Crowthorne, Berks, at 12.30am the other night, I was going over the speed limit pretty much all the way home (2 miles away). A smart looking "F plate" 2dr black E30 (similar to mine but nicer) was following me, and lit...

Thanks very much Brianmoooore, yep group 13/14 sounds right. Cheers

Hey guys.
I have a 1991 2dr black 318i. Just wondering if anyone could give a rough guide of the insurance group?
Any help much appreciated.

Good Feedback from me for project E30 (Darren)
Received floor mats well packaged and as described, good time also.

Hey guys and girls.
Problem solved! I knew the exhaust was a bit noisy cos of the baffles (car was standing for months) and this turns out to have restricted power from the engine!
Many thanks for all your help

Thanks for all ur advice. Although tis quite annoying that so many people rip the m40 engine. Im 18 yrs old, tis my first car and its perfectly adequate! I agree with brianmooooooore on the "temporarily fault free" thing. The car was standing from may til November, with little use. Since then ive do...

Hey guys and girls. Today, i changed down from forth to third at 40mph, then floored it. The usual power ensued, but for a second there was a real boost of power, but then back to usual. i have tried to make it do it again, but to no avail. just wondering if anyone has any ideas- i.e. fuel etc. many...

Cheers again

Hey folks. possibly thinking of selling my 318i as its not very practical for uni in sept. Its a 1991 2dr, black with 15" BBS, Sports seats, boot spoiler etc. Shes done 140k with very gd regular service history. No rust at all. Just wondering if neone could help out wid a possible value? Many Thanks...

Hey. Ive got a Black 2dr 318i. Im 18, and have one years no claims. My policy was Ã‚£1000 fully comp with RAC. Personally I found all of the specialist performance and young drivers to be very expensive, and Confused.com is a definite no no. Hope this helps

Big thanks to Nelly and jcjdavis1
That makes sense.
I'll go try now!
Cheers guys.

Hey guys and girls.
Discovered this morning the passenger seat was pretty damp, with some "Rain drop" splodges on it. Cars a 1991 2dr, with manual sunroof. Cant see how water cud be getting in. Also the sunroof "jumps up" when you close one of the doors! Any ideas?
Many Thanks for help in advance

I dunno what looks better- the car or the scenery! Some beautiful shots there. Im loving the colour.

Aplogies for jumping your post Spadge, but I have a similar problem on mine, except sometimes whilst stationary and you turn the wheel ,there is a loud "honking" noise from the engine bay. Possibly rubbing noise?

Pretty much all of my deals on The Zone have been through Tony, each one being quick, easy and smooth. You really can rely on this fella.
Nice one Tony

Many thanks for your advice Brianmooooooooore

Hi All
As you may well know, 318i's only have a single tone horn, which I find quite embaressing!
Just wondering if I buy the second deeper tone horn, how do I wire it/mount it to the car?
Apparently it goes above the front fog lamps?

Any help much appreciated
Cheers

Many thanks Dazzaboy, i''l post up a pic when ive done.

Cheers

Cheers guys, I am rather tempted to make my own, probably quite a task though. I'll see how much pods are.
Many thanks for your help

Help! I have gone and bought some Sony Brookland series 6x9's, and they are too deep and slightly too wide to fit on the parcel shelf.
Does anyone know of a company that does a small shelf for them to sit on, or shall I make my own??
Any help much appreciated
Cheers

Quite simply the sex

Thanks very much for all your advice.
Much appreciated guys

Sorry to be a pain mate, but where were the clear indicators from, and how much were they?
Did you do the red rear lights yourself? They look sweet

Cheers

Cheers hammoj28, bloody nice car btw.
Someone I know recommended those too, so I just ordered a pair of Brookland Xplod's. Ã‚£49.99. Sweet

Cheers again

Interesting stuff. problem is, until you buy the damn things you don't know how good they'll be in the car.
Oh well lol

many thanks for everyone's advice

Haha lol. Too right. Then I really would be a BMW driver

Thanking you Simon.
Totally agree E30bemer! Lol

Cheers

Ah right cheers, yea infinity are a sweet sound.
I may be tempted to stretch my budget

Yea '91 318i.
Should I just buy a two piece horn from the scrapyard? Or add another horn to mine?
Cheers

Lol!
Yea I think I only have a single one, because its hiding behind the kidney grill, and I can't see another. In which case i'll buy a two tone horn.

Many thanks for your advice

Just wondering if my horn sounds right. It sounds like a really cheap french horn, and I want the nice full sound like a new BMW.
Anyone had the same problem?
Possible Recommendations?

Any help much appreciated

Cheers

Just wondering what 6 x 9's people would recommend, to go with a pretty standard Ã‚£100 Kenwood head unit. I don't really wanna spend more than Ã‚£50 on them.

Any help much appreciated

Cheers

Great advice, cheers guys.
I'll post up a pic when its done!

I'm going to spray my front grill (around headlamps etc) black, but I need some help!
I have a primer that is suitable for plastic, do I need to rub the grill down with sandpaper, or can I just decontaminate and spray on?
Any help much appreciated

Cheers
