Re: alpine whites??

Hi. Here's all the colours and dates for E30's as from www.bmwinfo.com. Im guessing by the dates yours is the later Alpine, the 218 code.

Re: Silver bmw on A2 late thursday night

My best mate is a traffic cop. He said if they were going to do you, you would have been pulled there and then and not to worry. You cant really be done retrospectively unless by fixed camera.

Re:

Oh, excellent. Thanks. Just been for a drive and realised its not actually the gear that 'clunks'. The clunk is more on depression and release of the clutch, if i release quickly, but im begininng to think its me just not being used to the car. It drives well enough, anyways.

Re:

Dont get me wrong, its not so bad you think 'bloody hell whats that noise and clunk' each gear change. . I didnt even notice until half way home until i hit traffic and was stopping and starting loads. The gears go in easily enough including reverse so i dont think its selector forks. Maybe its just...

Re:

Hey guys. Picked up the car this afternoon. Its as good as it looks in the pictures. Can confirm its a Calypso. The car is really clean. It got me the 110 miles home without a problem. Engine seems strong and quiet. Temp gauge didnt even get up to half so i assume rad and cooling system are good. Pa...

Re:

I was real mad on the Mk1s, Gooner. I had 3 at once at one point! Including one of only 140 supercharged ones in the country at the time. I suspect theres plenty more been imported since then but its still very rare i see one. Fortunately a friend of mine bought the supercharger so i still see it. T...
