Re: 318iS Backbox/ exhaust system.
Cheers for the reply dude. I did think that would be the case. BMW still have oem ones left but the price is now ridiculous. Luckily super sprint have just found a couple of new backbox’s so I’ll be biting the bullet and getting one of those. Around the same price as the oem box but should add a bit...

Power steering belt replacement. Broken tensioner teeth.
Hi all Power steering was making some horrible squeaking noises and not being sure when it was last done I decided to change the belt as per the wiki. All went well until I needed to bring the new belt under tension, the toothed 19mm nut just spins. I thought the nut had just worn over time but on c...

Hey guys. So my 318iS has been playing up recently. The battery was flat so jumped it and all good to go. Took it for a long drive, the next day I went to start it again and nothing. The battery has charge as the lights turned on but the engine wouldn't crank. This made me think that the alternator ...

Re: How much are E30 318is worth, top end cars
Agreed. 8k seems steep but if it sold then fair play! With less and less of them on the road I guess they should command some sort of premium. Colour probably has a fair bit to do with it as the white and black seem more desirable than red. If someone offered me 8k for mine (103k miles) id take it i...

Re: How much are E30 318is worth, top end cars
A friend recently sold a good condition iS with 75k for 3.5k I think that's a fair estimation. Some of the prices going on at the minute are crazy. I guess it's what some people are willing to pay.

Stupid money in my opinion, you could put your money into something far better than cars, at the end of the day anyone can put a price on something but you have to find someone willing to pay it. There is no way an m3 is worth that price tag, a dream car for us all i am sure but at the end of the da...

Drove past a white m3 today at walton bridge in surrey, anyone know if they are a member?
First time i have actually seen an m3 on the road in use and it put a huge smile on my face! Gave them the thumbs up.
