Re: Is it wrong to use an E30 daily?

I had a 316 e46, if you can get a facelift. Looks a little nicer and the 1.8 is better than the 1.9 of the prefacelift.

Hello, to put it simple, i have a 320 coupe and want close to 200bhp and my petrol to go a little further. so a engine drop seemed a good idea, however, i dont really have the time to take it off the road to try myself or the knowledge, so was wondering if there was anyone who would be willing to do...

Re: The cabrio is 'cute' :(

i think if you like the e30 (woman or not) depends on if you like cars. the missis first off couldnt understand why i wanted to get rid of the e46 for the e30. when she saw it it got a 'meh' comment. once she drove it, she liked it, and now wants to a get a tt and slam it and get buckets like mine.....
