sorry not got that totally?

the plates on my car in the avatar now are illegal because the font and size have now been changed??

Hi people, Saw the thread on here about german number plates the other day and thought they looked good, was going to order some when on the old mans mercedes 190 forum some MOT tester is saying there illegal, plus some other fella on there had his taken off him by the old bill? is this true as i do...

very nice motor the wheels look stunning!!

Worst come to worst he can always strip the thing down, i mean he must have a fair amount of cash locked up in all those gadgets?? tv screens, wheels, interior etc??

Not really a fan of that, maybe its just because i want to disagree with arsenal fans in geneal! Up the spurs! I'm thinking maybe a dtm or straight out le mans type thing? Would love to go to a place that makes them and try some out lol...... maybe ask a few people on here where the best place to g...

thanks for the comments guys really appreciate it, just out of interest what are banded steelies and what do they look like?

looks sweet. the wheels look the dogs!

Looks well clean mate, any interior pics? sorry didn't get any interior pick which was a bit of a no brainer!! the interior is box standard. i bought the car off an 83 year old guy who had it from new! so inside there is not even a mark which is really nice. :) He must of cleaned up the incontinenc...

hi people, This is my 1984 320i still all totally original and going to keep it that way....well as much as possible!. It's been in the garage since i bought it a few months ago doing a few mechanical bits to it. Still needs a more bits doing to it. eventually re-spray, wheels ect. The list can be e...

SPADGE wrote:Isn't it true that M3's converted to right hand drive lose a little power due to the exhaust manifold alterations needed to make it fit? Maybe if so this is what the fella means?

im sure that is exactly what he's on about. But im sure he was going on about all the e30's not just the m3's??

hi guys, just a quick question? Was talking to some fella who is a mechanic and he told me that left hand drive model e30's are faster then right hand drive one's because BMW were able to put a bigger manifold in them as there was no steering column to get in the way plus a few other modifications? ...

cheers guys

checked the fan yesterday and its not electric so spins round constantly? thought maybe could be a faulty gauge but somehow doubt that? also where should the temperature gauge sit when the car is running? really cant think what else it could be!!

hi guys,
When driving the motor, its fine and runs at a normal temperature, but when at idle the temp runs past the three quarter mark!

changed the thermostat on it and flushed the system through. can anyone give advice on what else to look at??

thanks

If a 1984 320i cost that much from new, not the most desirable model!!! it scares me to think that a later m3 cost near quadruple that???????!!!!!!!!!!!!

its true always wanted a e30, that's why i got one, but was also looking to buy a newer car as well, and always moaned about new car prices (wanted to keep e30 as baby :drool: )? But since i seen the price of a car 23/24 years ago it dont seem that bad!!! that goes for all cars not just e30's or any...

Was looking through all my fullbmwsh on my 1984 320i and found the original purchasing sheet...£11,350 it cost back then with only a few sh*t extras??? was wondering if anyone who had a more desirable 325 or m3 or anyything else? maybe had the same invoice and how much it was worth new....... lookin...

not keen on that at all looks like it has 2 over-sized nostrils and clumsy... like the interior...... but cant say that i would turn one down though

guess it would be worth getting them fitted first so not to damage paint work thanks........ shedrool83 they look stunning on your motor... nice car

cheers guys......... might pop up to charminster and have a look as well if there 100% then its worth looking thanks for the advice

try having a look for some borbets that look like BBS cross spokes but deeper ive seen them around im sure of it? might be 5 stud actually... Ronal LS are an awesome alternative to BBS that i found too mate, think theyre the way im going u cant deny those borbets look class though good luck with th...

Rears might need arch mods with the 9's the 7.5's would fit fine. But ultra cool would be 9 at the rear 7.5 at the front. Well the wheels are still a bit of a wait... cars going for a spray first, can get them to widen the rear arches then? I see your in bournemouth? can you recommend any decent sp...

So they would fit with no problems too?

Hi people looking to buy some alloys in the future, when i got the cash really. wanted to keep my car as original as possible, but the steel wheels have to go!! My first though was to find a set of original bbs alloys and keep it original but then i saw these Borbet A's and think they look wicked......

welcome to the zone
