E30 Zone

Condition is good but it'll cost more to ship than it's worth!

Do you ever head down this way?

I have a grey one. Proper 325 version with heavy backing.

You'd have to collect it though (Chertsey area) as it's quite a lump!

Where are you based please?

Indeed, winner has got himself a great car at ordinary car money...

If they're not here, I will be recommending e30zone to them for sure!

Best wishes to all, as always.

Hello Correct, no AC.Four electric windows and a sunroof though! And fabric seats that don't burn the backs of your thighs on hot days :-) My private car for sale through FTC. A proper, decent company. They are keeping it safe and clean, and handling all viewings. Basically following how I bought th...

Hi Everyone

As previously mentioned, here is a link to the listing for my car that started yesterday on Ebay:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/392889066904 ... 1758.m4704

Please wish me luck!

Best wishes as always

Yes, a bargain the 'winner' no longer has access to.

As of today, he/she has a new MoT too - no advisories

A one-owner, faultless, manual 325i cabriolet with only 24k? Oh boy :-) Treasure, totally worth insuring at Agreed Value as replacement virtually impossible. Have you kept ALL the paperwork since day 1? Surely north of £25k? Just my 2p. Supposedly with a finger on the pulse of the current market, ca...

Yes, will do. Once the new auction is up, I'll post a link to it here. It will be a no-reserve auction so will sell as long as the winner shows up! But if they don't (again!) I will indeed be keeping the car - especially as now lockdown is easing there is the prospect of having somewhere to go in it!

Well????

No-show from winning bidder on 325i. Happens a lot, apparently.

New auction next week - last try, then she's coming home.

Other two have sold.

Thanks for following-up.

May or may not be useful to know, but when I had my car done, the bodyshop couldn't find a good inner arch so fabricated it instead. They weren't that happy as it's very fiddly. I wasn't all that pleased as it turned out quite expensive. They did an amazing job though.

Cheeky bump!

No reserve eBay auction for my car ends tomorrow (Sunday) evening.

Please keep your fingers crossed for me - bidding started well but I'm hoping for something stronger by the end (of course!)

Best wishes to all

So, taking a chance and have listed my car on an eBay no-reserve auction. No apparent new issues after lockdown hibernation, we had a lovely drive out the other day, but it's time to find a new owner. Someone will be getting a very well sorted E30 - fingers crossed we get enough bidders, looking pro...

Visited the car today. Put the CTek adaptor plug on so it's easier to connect and disconnect the battery conditioner. No buyer yet. Going to lower the asking price today or tomorrow. If that doesn't get the right attention I will bring him/her/not it home and put something else up for sale. Fingers ...

Very nice! Got any links to those? For the pictures, you're likely best off adding to a site like imgur and then linking individually, she sounds like she's worth seeing. Your best bet for the £ may be pistonheads or another classic site - it sounds well loved and would be nice to see this avoid ha...

Good luck with the sale, she looks lovely.

What are the others FS, out of interest?

Thank you.

I have my E-Type and 944 up for sale too.

Thank you

Well, it's been too long without an income and I have too many cars to feed! I'm putting three up for sale, including my E30, to see if they will find new owners. Here's what I'm planning to say about the E30: Please PM if it's of interest. (Constructive :D ) advice re wording always welcome! Happy ...

Hello

If you own this car - a white 318i Touring - I have just stumbled across its original service booklet.

PM me and I'll happily send it over!

PS: Your timing belt is due for a change!!

How's the car?
Are you happy with it?
Lots to sort, or ready to go?

Just in case (I'm no expert!), though you're probably on the case already... Can I add the suggestion that you check all the numbers match? VIN plate, stamp and windscreen badge as well as paperwork etc. Has the seller sent you the VIN so you can decode it? Does the switchable auto mean LSD too? Or ...

Are there any areas that essentially write the car off due to complexity and cost of repair? are these easy to spot on a visit without putting it on ramps etc.? Thanks Daz I'm no expert, but as an enthusiast who pays full retail for any and all jobs done on my car, I'd say the main area to be aware...

At my first job there was a lad who didn't eat lunch and barely had a pot to piss in because he saved up and bought an Exige. He could barely afford to put fuel in it but I did admire him for having it haha. Did something like that when I was 19 so I could have a Capri Injection Special - my boss a...

I'm a fan of originality so we probably won't be chasing the same cars! It's surprising how little is known about 70s Japanese cars outside the usual suspects (Zs mainly!) Quite a niche market really. They did quite a good job of producing some interesting cars - but so many have rusted away. Just a...

I see it also put in an appearance on a TV show in 2012...

https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_554075-BM ... -1990.html

Yes. I used to own that car. Bought from Old Colonel Cars (drove past, saw it outside and bought it there and then) Guessing late 2007 or early 2008. Didn't like the colours or the auto particularly but great documented history, low mileage (at 47,000?), original everywhere except the wheels which I...

I hope you're not looking for a '70s Colt GTO

I really want one (UK spec GSR) but they're rarer than any E30!

I think so. Chap who bought it has a small collection of interesting Japanese cars...

Good luck with your E30 search

Sorry, not selling, but wanted to acknowledge Celica reference from one fan to another...

Or maybe I've over-thought it

You own one in the past then?

Wrong forum but hopefully the odd 'invader' is allowed!

Yes indeed. Bought it from first owner and brought it up to scratch, sold for a huge loss and wish I hadn't!

Sorry, can't help with decode but it does sound like you have very interesting car there...

Pin-stripe interior looks great! It's something a bit different to the usual leather or houndstooth etc. My car is Diamond Black with the 0376 silver and orangey-red pin-stripe interior. It's 'fresh' and bright, as well as comfortable. Referring to earlier post, I'm not sure it's any more durable th...

Big fat X1 bullying the little E30.

At least the E30 tucks nicely under the pipes.

First look, I thought the X1 was a Q7 - looks enormous!

(Great reg number for an E30 too)

I hadn't realised that E30 was conceived entirely as a 2 door. 4 door is so neat I had always assumed both were developed at the same time.

Great job, BMW!

Nothing quite so elegant and perfect from BMW since...

Santa Pod always worth a visit, especially in summer.
