E30 Zone

Hi all, Haven't been on here for a while now, got rid of the sport last year. New site is looking good - I did have a brief look not long after it first came back up and it was a bit odd, but then the forum was changed back to the way it use to be :cool: New colour scheme is good too. One thing I wi...

Hi,

Haven't been on here much since i got rid of my sport

. New site looking good anyway.

Would me and my mate be welcome in his e34 535 sport?

Cheers,

I can only assume that chidley is not a car salesman by profession....... 'unexpected bills force sale.' Using such a statement as a reason for selling is hardly going to yield positive results. Especially with the clear mechanical and cosmetic issues. 52,000 miles not bad though......if it's genuin...

Beautifully kept sport you got there. As Daryll said, can't believe how clean the engine bay is. Hope you're keeping it standard

What has been done to the M1 is just blasphemy. Shame about the M3 as well, it looks like it's in good condition. Paying money for a full body respray and picking that colour is utter madness. The Micra, however, is obviously bad boi, in fact I think I might get one just like it! xD. You do have to ...

Cool. I'll be seeing you a bit later anyway Shakeel. Do you know if you have to remove the back seats to get the old carpet out/new one in?

Cheers,

Hi all,

Just wondering if a 4 door carpet would fit my sport? The carpets look the same size, as are the cars, only the number of doors differ. Does this make much difference?

Cheers,

Some absolutely quality pictures there mate, nice work. Loving the 5th and 6th from bottom.

Harsh on you mate.

I'm 20 with 1 year NCB, 2 years driving. Paying £200 more for fully comp with direct line on 325i sport with 3 points.

Tesco... every little helps? I think not.

I can see where you're coming from Max but I'd have to agree with Hubble on this one. Whilst E30's are lovely cars, it does cost to keep them in good/working order. Also a M40 316 touring is never going to be particularly 'nippy,' as you know and it will get done by shopping mobiles. You do have to ...

Very nice indeed. You've done well to get it looking that clean, respect to you for keeping it standard as well. Insurance must be a hell of a lot cheaper in OZ if you can afford a 325is for your first car........Keep the pics coming.

Hi Zimmer,

Any chance of getting a grey carpet for my sport? I'm looking out for 2nd hand ones close by, but just thought i'd ask you as well.

Cheers,

Dave.

This thread is absolutely priceless, who would have thought a simple picture request would spark so much conflict. Moody is obviously very confused, if you take a proper look on the forum then you'll see that there are many, many E30's that have been kept fairly standard. A fair few may lower their ...

Lovely looking car you got there. You can join hubble and beardymatt's mint sterling club

. Nice to see another in such good condition that's not being molested. Nice find!

Poor chap, RIP. I will say though, after only a few months of owning my car I found out how careful you have to be in the wet. I wasn't even going fast but had dropped into second to go round a round-a-bout, put my foot down to progress onto a up-hill dual-carriageway and out I span. I got lucky tho...

8O Speedbumps p**s me off and mines on standard m-tech suspension. Some of these cabs do look very nice granted, but how you put up with driving them I don't know. Sy_325 very nice looking car, but I couldn't justify a drop that low. I'm guessing most of these aren't daily drivers. Baz666, just my o...

Hello All. I've got a very annoying high-pitched noise (sounds like a rusty swing) coming from the front passenger side wheel. This is only present at low speeds, however, the speed at which it is heard seems to be increasing. Started off primarily in first and second when doing 0-15 mph. Now, howev...

Zimmer,

How much would lower wishbones set me back? Also do I need to change them in pairs at all?

Dave.

With reference to my other post : http://e30zone.net/modules.php?name=For ... c&t=101565

What exactly is a geometry test and where would I get one carried out? Also what sort of price are they?

Dave.

Nice looking example there mate, very low mileage as well, especially for a D plate. I wouldn't worry about the arches, very common place to have rust on e30's and easily fixed.

Cliffy obviously hasn't seen this yet otherwise there'd be some chrome-related comments by now

Dave.

Thanks for your help lads. Simon if you look in the 6th picture down you can see the pipe I am talking about. I know the black one that runs the length of the car is for electrics, but there is a hole next to that where you can see the sunroof drain coming through. What exactly is a geometry test, w...

Cliffy I want your number plate! How many sets of rims you got there mate? How do you afford all this as well, correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you quite a young'un?

Further to this, can any of you recommend somewhere I can go to get a proper job done? I have been quoted Ã‚£200 by a guy I went to see yesturday and he seemed to know what he was doing. However, for a job like this I don't mind paying a bit more to ensure it is done properly, and I don't know anyon...

Hmm not good news really. I was told by the previous owner that his mate reversed into him at 'slow speeds' and there was a bit of work done. Should have got a proper HPI check before buying I guess, oh well a mistake to learn from. Could this explain the horrible vibrations experienced at motorway ...

The pipe I mentioned can been seen easiest in the 6th picture down.

Hello everyone. Some of you may have seen my other posts over the last week talking about the water in the drivers side footwell. After taking the seats out and cutting some carpet back I found this complete mess :s. Wasn't impressed to say the least. The pipe that can be seen in some of the picture...

Savage, gonna be a bit of a bitch to sort by the sounds of it. Never mind got a three day weekend to sort it out I guess. How does the centre console come out exactly? Is it just this bit, up to where all the heater and OBC is? http://img376.imageshack.us/img376/379/centreconsolevq9.jpg Dave. P.S. t...

Hello all, I was just wondering exactly what needs to be taken out in order for me to remove the entire carpet. Obviously the seats will have to come out. Beemerlad said in my other post that the centre console needs to be removed as well, is this correct? Just need to take it out for few days to le...

Cheers for that lads. Speedtouch, do I not have to take the seats out to get the carpet out as a whole piece? Gonna have a go at it tomorrow, hopefully I don't find too many hidden horrors :s.

Dave.

Brilliant! I know I would think twice before attempting to steal that car with a beast like that in the boot. My mate as a Briard cross that weighs 9 1/2 stone, he could destroy the car itself never mind anyone who came near it. If you know him he's a big softie, otherwise you better stand back. I'm...

Nice Leigh! Oh what most of us would give to prove the old bill wrong in such a way. Bet you had a nice smug face on at that point

Cheers Chris! I'll carry on as I am at the moment, but next time I fill up I'll start doing that. That way I can see if it makes a difference over the course of a whole tank. Fumes do smell quite rich when the car is cold to be honest and there's a fair amount of smoke produced when cold as well.

Excellent cheers for that mate. Ill give it a bash over the weekend. Haha and no its not all the 'sucky sucky,' I wish. Good picture though, made me laugh when I first saw it.

The carpet in the footwell on the drivers side of my sport is wet, not very good with the rain we're having at the moment. I'm pretty sure its the seal on the drivers door, as there's a wet patch along the very edge closest to the bonnet. However, it gets wetter the closer you get to the pedals, not...

Yeh that would be good Si nice one. Have to pop round yours again at some point, if you don't mind that is. Hows the engine going ?
