Re: Unleaded Fuel

Cheers Paul, I think I will give "super" a go for a while but it could be a waste of money!

Unleaded Fuel

Hi
I have a 316i auto 1989.
I sit worth me using the more "superior" unleaded fuel? I am not after more performance but I would like to look after the engine properly.
Any help or advice would be great.
Cheers

Re: Colour Change?

I am weighing up my options. A respray is looking to be about £2k so maybe I should go the extra mile for the colour I want. A standard 316 coupe is quite a rare sight nowadays. I am really after a stock looking 316 with no mods at all

Colour Change?

Hi I am contemplating changing the colour of my e30. It is currently bronze with a beige interior. The interior is mint and I want to keep it.

Temperature Gauge

Brighter Headlights

Hi
Can anyone recommend replacement headlight bulbs for my 1989 E30? I know the standard ones are well known for not really giving off much light.
Would be great if somebody has a link to some decent brighter modern bulbs
Thanks for any help.
Cheers

Hi
Cheers for the reply. I don't think there are any in the country and they are really expensive. I will however check with Cotswolds.
Thanks for your help.
