Re: rear beam rage!
the bushes are cheap enough, but quite labour intensive then. i was going to get danthe to powdercoat a spair rear beam and fit the bushes. then i was going to ask my local bmw garage to fit it. ££££

rear calipers
hi, is there a difference between the rear calipers of a touring and the other e30s? i thought there is
would the rear calipers of an abs touring fit ones with no abs?
what are the differences between the brakes on the front of a 318 touring(vented) and a 325?
can anyone let me know, cheers

Re: e36 touring vs e46 touring
its looking that way for me to. the e46 is a nice car and drive. although the e36 is ahead at the moment, mainly because i like older cars.
i also like the e39 touring but i wont start that post

Re: e36 touring vs e46 touring
come on guys, i only wanted peoples opinions, pros and cons of having a e36 touring Vs e46 touring.
im sure people have had good and bad experiences with both. i would be spending a max of £1500, so just wanted views on which would be the better buy with my budget.
