Re: Hello

Lovely colour this, very unusual, what a great find. I spy non sunroof and possibly beige sport interior? Sunroof model unfortunately but sport interior, passenger seat has seen better days so hoping to find someone who still deals with these for a few parts once I make a list of parts it’s gonna n...

Re: Hello

Hey Steve, it’s been a while! Hopefully I’ve attached the pictures correctly. It’s a 1983 320i auto so nothing fancy, but great condition. Slight leak from the gearbox or torque converter but until I get underneath I haven’t inspected further. Bit of rust on the front foot wells but exterior is love...

Re:

Would you be using the 10k 316 at all or would it be in the garage all of it life? As Pete said above, the minute you start putting miles on it, the price will start to drop.

£6000 is an expensive garage ornament if you're not the sort who usually buys garage ornaments

What's worth selling from it? Front struts, rear arms, fuel tank, diff, drive shafts, sump, smilie headlights, headlight grilles, speedo, interior, anti roll bars, sum frames, full lock set. These things will sell easy, the rest it just a bit by bit jobbie. I'm not looking for any more at the momen...

Re: Breaking a touring

Why not put it on eBay at 99p and see what happens?

Re: Any photos of a neon blue cab?

Out of curiosity. The 150 of the blue and 50 of the green figure. Where did that come from? There seems to be loads of the blue ones still knocking about which makes me question these numbers.

I've seen a fair few in and around Leicester now
