e28 m5 - for that legendary engine alone - 4 doors plus some nice creature comforts - I'd pay over 10k for the right model with the right milage and history and colour - don't like the m-tech kits though

I had a 318iC and 325iC at the same time. The 318 handles more 50/50 from a balance point of view - the 325 moves around the engine more, feeling more nose heavy, but both are great fun to drive; you have to be slightly more careful with the 325. The 320 is only a few more BHP over the 318, and the...

Hi, I am a proud owner of a 318is - spending about £400 on it over the next few months - most of which will be to get rid of the small amout of rust and to fit the z3 short shifter thingy whatever its called. I've been looking around on the various sites like e-bay and autotrader for a convertible...

hi, you could try Joe's motors in Hawthorne Grove off maple road in penge. Joe knows his stuff and drives a mint 1986 M6 - he isn't expensive either if you do go don't let the state of the place put you off he's old school.

to be honest I would rather do it myself - its not even the couple of hours labour cost - but the satisfaction of doing it yourself and beating the BMW dlr network. Yeah for a car that has 152000 on the clock its an amazingly tight drive. I just wish it had under 80k on the clock as i would do some ...

power steering pump - how much technical expertise would one need to repair this. Well curosity got the better of me so I fired her up, so far so good, reved her up fine, reversed out the drive fine and drove off noise completely gone, power fine etc. So panic mode switched off - phew. One thing tha...

hi fuzzy there's a e30 addict who lives up the road - he owns a mint e reg m3 evo 11 in a rare silver colour with just 60k on the clock - I knocked for him earlier but he wasn't in. I'm going to have to take the car out for a drive again to be honest with you fuzzy, but I didn't notice anything but ...

hi, thanks for the compliment Gareth - your right it is a very classy name :D thanks for the feedback. If it is the PAS I'll be happy but I don't think it is, the steering seems ok but again i'm no expert and I didn't drive it long enough afterwards to notice if it was. One thing I will say is just ...

hi all driving earlier on and all of a sudden after performing a 3 point turn this racket started coming from the front of the car and sounded like it was coming from the left hand side of the engine bay. At first I thought maybe something has caught up underneath and was being dragged along like a ...

can't wait for the pics mate, whats the milage on it.

the 325is is basically a C2 2.7 alpina - sorry not true, the 325is have proper m3 suspension and 95% have aluminium panels - its a very different car to the c2 2.7, not better, not worse just different.

the 333i is a rare beast and very fast but not my favourite of the South African Exclusives. BMW SA made you choose between PAS and AIR CON - you could not have both - and given the climate most punters ticked the aircon box making this a very heavy car to drive. 215 were made packing out 207bhp at ...

150 bhp - nice, how much did that lot come to chicken?

I'll pm you when I have some dosh for those headlamp wipers Chris, cheers.

Hi everyone just found this really usefull site. just bought a black 318is coupe black e30 H reg 1991 Its got a high miles of 150k but the bloke who I bought it off has owned it for 11 years and just 1 previous owner before him.
