Re:
Yes I did see the 8 Series Alpina. In fact, I saw the old guy that owned it. I smiled at him and said "nice mota" he looked very chuffed with himself and smiled back saying thank you!! It's a shame you didn't see the cover, maybe next meet, or show. It's always in the back of my car. I think I saw y...

All E30 models are welcome, even though some members might not agree, but the E30zone's philosophy is no matter what model you have, as long a...

Re: Ultimate BMW show / Santapod 21-09-08
Will be good if your better half comes along. Your littlen will love it too, if they are able to come. I'm sure there will be some littlens up there too. Not quite sure. Best to check.
Really looking forward to it. Not that far away either.

I don't care what people think of convertibles. I just think they are jealous. I still love my convertible. I don't pay attention to other people's comments. The only comment I take notice of, is mine and only mine.

Re: My cabby back on the road after 2 1/2/yrs
I just love driving with the roof down, whatever the weather. A spot of rain never bothered me that much either. I was driving too fast to care.
Love convertibles!! Even if they are supposed to be for hairdressers. :winkeye: :winkeye:

Re: MPG ON 325
Of course there will be a difference between mpg between a 325i and a 325i convertible. For one thing the car is much heavier. I never fill my car with £20, so wouldn't know how far I travel.

Fantastic restoration. It must have taken a very long time to do. Did you work out how many hours it took? Car looks stunning, but then your car looked stunning the last time I saw it in the flesh/metal!! Well done to you for such a good job.
