Re: E30 £100

wow that's clean for £100! Puts a certain car 318i touring advertised at £3k into perspective

Re:

Thanks Greentouring!

All luxes had sports steering wheels didn't they? - as opposed to the standard four spoke wheel

Re:

OK, mixed views here. I wouldn't be disinclined to pay a bit more than 2k for REALLY good, totally original low mileage minter, but it would depend on a thorough inspection to verify that it is totally original ie no resprays or touch ups or sill paint. Only problem is, I'm based in Dublin, Ireland ...

I'm on the lookout for a nice late model e30 touring 318i, and am prepared to pay perhaps a little bit over the odds if its a really good example, like up to 2k, but this car is way too expensive, isn't it? Even if it does look almost concours. Is it worth the money? http://www.sprintonline.net/BMW%...

Can you retro-fit a cat?

My wife is a bit of a tree hugger and is demanding that any e30 that joins the family must have a catalytic...
