I used big bavariane beauties, they have alot in stock but there expensive!!

Theres this one on ebay and its over 12k http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-M3-E30-1989-Cecotto-limited-edition_W0QQitemZ150273563829QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item150273563829&_trksid=p3286.m14.l1318 If yours in in the same or better condition then this your proberly looking around that region. But as said by marc...

does remapping really have a big benefit on these cars? and is £250-300 a realistic price seeing as thats all the cash? Actually who is good on here to talk to about it? Not to sure how much effect it will make on these cars. I had it done on my golf gt tdi 110bhp and fu*k me that thing took off li...

Cant you just have it re-mapped? More performance, better fuel economy, better response with the throttle and so on....

It cost about £250-£300 to do so!!

Thats the one, parkers.co.uk

Thanks Mrach109

Hi guys, there was a chat about the new tax prices with a link to the site to check your tax price on the forum not to long ago, i have been searching for it but cant seem to find it.

Does anyone know what the site was?

Thanks.

That is one faded out boot lid!!

Good luck getting it back mate!!

Oh ok then well thats good because my mate took his car to BM Works in stoke mandiville and never went back again!! There prices are a complete skank!! They charge way to much for a minor job so would hate to see what they charge for an engine change. Well good luck mate with the one your going to h...

Heres a tip....dont go to BmWorks there a skank!! Unless theres another one in england somewhere but if its the one ion stoke mandiville i wouldnt go there mate.

Go to MpMotorsportz, check there website out..... www.mpmotorsportz.co.uk

Ermmm i dont no lol!! Im at work so havnt checked, il look at it tonight when i get home. But im sure it cant say they wont pay out, my old insurance (CIS) paid me all my money back to the penny, and Swinton also paid me my money back even though i was only insured with them for 2 days and then canc...

Sorry mods i know this has nothing to do with E30s (although it was my E30 i had insured with them) but i want people to know..... I sold my car so i canceled my insurance with direct line. I have only been with them 5 months and i payed for the whole year already, when i canceled i asked how much i...

Who was? Lol

Mate i think you can all agree on one thing here.......get a small car to start off with, save up your money for a year or two, then get yourself a nice E30 as said above. The way things are going now mate i wouldnt spend the money because when you get stuck you will get stuck hard, its not the same...

Agreed, a 316 is a good starting point, plenty of later 316 lux models knocking about still that still have rear arches in them, tourings also seem to be in better nick, except tailgates which rot with the best of 'em. You can get a nice late J or K plate 316 touring for about £600. As for the insu...

When you get insurance on them go for a 316 then do it on one of your parents name and yourself as 2nd driver....i have been doing it ever since i was 17 lol. Some insurance companies such as direct line will also give the 2nd driver ncd so you can build up your own. Thats your only hope to getting ...

No matter how good the car may look or sound every e30 will have some sort of problem mate. If you can get the 1st one for a good price i would go for it, as said by Spadge if you win it and it dont look as described then walk away simple as that, we all done it before. End of the day its your money...

cars beyond repairing but may get it back as apart from the front end and rear quater panel was immaculate , interior etc.. il see though as a window smashed in the crash and i expect the cars full of water now sat in some salvage yard , as zaust said though its just a car at the end of the day , j...

Lol no i was not wearing a seatbelt actualy...so thank god im still here

Yes these cars are very strong arent they, unlike the crap they make these days!! I'd much rather have an accident in a modern car than an E30... Sad to hear about the crash mate, hope you're alright. So you would rather have an accident in a plastic car? Which will actualy crush if ou went into a ...

Dam into a telegraph pole that must have hurt!! Was you wearing a seatbelt? Hope your alright mate and not to badly injured. Make sure you claim on your wrist...neck....back....leg if you can be bovered lol!! Yes these cars are very strong arent they, unlike the crap they make these days!! Is your c...

Speaking of engines how much would a 325 engine cost? 1 in good nick ofcourse.

ooohhhh thanks for that mate

Speaking of the obc....how do you set the time on it?

I thought the same 60,000 miles then the cam belt needs changing, im sure thats for most cars also aint it.

Yes i know, when i take my car to him i know it will come back spot on with no other problems, plus he is a top mechanic one of the best in my area so good thing i know him very well lol!!

Im about an hour or so drive from you nelly, in aylesbury.

Been with my mechanic for donkey years hes a good friend of mine known him since i was born so he dont charge me much.....and he would kick my arse if i ever went elsewhere lol.

Im not doing it myself i dont have a clue how to do something like that, so its going to the garage, so im sure he will do all that for me.

If only it wasnt 300 miles away

then maybe i would lol

Flippin b*****d Lied to me when he sold me the car!!

Thanks Andy

Now im going to get cussed by my mechanic

Ok im not a mechanic and dont know much on cars i just drive them before i get laughed at.... The pre facelift e30 325 engines, are they chain driven or cam belt? Ive been told both so im not sure and as i aint got a clue when mine was changed and i have had the car 6 months now so would be a good i...

Really hard choice.....NOT!! AC SCHNITZER all the way mate, alpinas are nice i must say (i have them on my car lol) but i would prefer to have ac schnitzer. Either way its all down to taste mate, take a look at a few e30s with both wheels on them and see which you like. Or as said above...buy all of...

I think it dont really matter about being a cat c, personaly i agree with steve-e30 its an old car so insurance will write it off even if the bumper drops off. As long as the car has no major panel damage etc then its worth around the 4k mark. It wont half its value, the only thing i would be worrie...

Yes i agree 4k is a good price, doubt you will get that much as not many people want to spend money due to the credit crunch etc. Ive seen cars which usualy would sell for over 4k with no problem struggle to reach 2k on ebay!! But as they say a cars worth what someone will pay for it. Good luck with...

Its an old phone antenna mate, i had the same thing on an escort i had a few years ago. Would not worry about it aslong as its plugged properly and no water is leaking through its all good.

Also 99% of Cosworths have had the nuts thrashed off them. My mate had one of these for around 6 years and not even once had it been driven like a normal car....soon as it left his driveway thats it all hell broke loose!! Car was well known around my area...and also well known to the police, but th...
