E30 Zone

Morning guys-

Been away from the site over a year and thought I would pay a visit and see what's happening.

I don't have another e30 and ended up buyin an insignia-

Anyway just thought I would say hya.

nice motor aaron, would look the part on a canvas lol

and here's me thinking it was E30 chat....lol

I have a dilemma

I have owned a 318is and a 325, and now an SLK...........but which E30 should I get next?

The 325 was more of a project, but don't really have the time now......any suggestions

in the process mate...............would you believe another dick head has bid and wants to retract........wots happening.

lol......had to stay in yesterday while they fitted carpet mate........haven't forgot about THE nob...lol

yeah noticed he had done it before, but at some stage you have to give the benefit of the doubt.

ne mercy in future

i hope this pratt doesn't have anything to do with the zone, but if you use ebay for car stuff beware of:

1st time this has happened to me and its really pi**ed me off

cheers for that guys, very interesting...............what I have seen is most RHD...............they are also graded upto 5 and normally B/B condition isn't bad. My mate got an RX7 for Ã‚£1600 + shipping + taxes He has also just got a Z3 for 2800 + shipping + taxes So the general consensus is to hav...

cheap.......very cheap
don't mean an e30, looking at newer 5 series maybe................just wondered if anyone had done it.

Just a quick question, am thinking about getting a BM from the auctions in Japan.
Anyone done this and know what to avoid/ look for??

cheers

Must admit I am seriously thinking about piling more Ã‚£'s to get her finished and back on the road through the so called summer.

I wonder how many cars can be left standing for 5 months and start up and idle nicely on the 2nd attempt? Thing is it's cruel for them to be left this long, and then you feel like selling, then you don't. But, I spose that's the beauty of E30 and old car ownership. Is there only me that thinks like ...

woah chill bill,....

..........my post was aimed more at beginning of thread....

......peeps saying this that and tother

and as I said above, I was just getting my thoughts across

no sweat mate, just getting my thoughts across

sorry to hear the problems you've been having mate. I think you should point out what you actually got for your money, just for the critics. Graham has been a good mate for 10 years and you know you're getting a good deal from him. As said previously, he won't sell anything with a fault........it wi...

I wish they would lower the car tax.......does about 3000 miles a year for almost 200 quid tax........what a rip off this country is.

tbh mate, i was in the same position last year.......i ended up buying a very good set of black leathers for Ã‚£700 i think it was......

i couldn't justify the extra Ã‚£100's to get new leather...........good luck whatever you decide

Here's one for you, have a series of pics or vid and do a what happens next. be better with a pic, as a video would probably be researched on you tube or something....lol

As above, in the meantime here is something I came across, apologies if already been shown

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJr0fxZE50w

i saw a guy on german ebay who apparently retrims mtech 2 wheels for 80 euros plus post
does anybody know of him.......dont fancy sending wheel over to lose it

does anyone know a trimmer who will retrim a steering wheel?
cheers

the thread must have been a couple of pages down the line mate........i am sure there are a lot of people with more than one thread to their name.

tried that eko, thing is the original mirror goes straight in and out, this is mega tough

corky you mean sort of slide end of spring down the screwdriver......if not y'll av to come round and demonstrate....hehe

tried but of the hammer and force it in, too dodgy tho, slipped a couple of times.....windscreen is a bit close....lol

sure is mate, gave it a squirt of WD, could get the spring to close up slightly, but different story when up in the air

hi all,
after wiring my map light mirror up, i tried to put it back in place,.......can i hell do it

there must be an easier way than just push..!!
tried hitting the bloody thing with a hammer and still no good

HELP
