Oldest or not, you'll not beat UBL44Y on condition! It truly is a thing of beauty. :D Here here! :thumb: But, again, nice one Duke for doing this. Owning the oldest known E30 in the UK is pretty cool and it's not even that bad condition wise. Obviously you have the benchmark set by hennabm but to h...

That is a photograph of my 83 323i engine bay, maybe taken at Harewood House.

Had my E30, 83 Yreg 323i for just over 20 years now. The mileage is 120000.

Hennabm is not the only red 323i manual left on the road. Here is mine, ex company car and with me for a number of years.
Pearl Beige std interior, green tints, manual sunroof are the spec for this car.

Poor chromie, 5 cylinder volvo engine, and large wheels and tyres! Can you call thia a BMW or a BMVOL!

I would agree with NatDJ on that one.

The car is required to be fitted with side repeaters by law and would also fail a MOT without them due to the age of the car.

I think this would be a good idea as I have a chrome bumper 323i. I would add that I also like the plastic bumper models aswell.

As a chrome lover I am now mourning the passing of another good car. Surely the beast has come this far and doesn't need to be slaughtered in this manner.

There must be some old plastic bumper 316/8 more worthy of such a fate.


RIP

Even better fun than taking the old ones off. I used good old fairy liquid to get enough slip on it!
Sore hands as well

Best of luck mate.

when i did mine it was a case of soak the end of the arb in wd40 and pull like ****
