People who try to sell cars to the already converted and state "common fault " as if it is something to by-pass. lol

Mart.

do you mean when people say things like the dash is cracked and then say thats just a common fault. Trying to make it sound like it doesnt matter.

Oh and rare sunroof model!!!???

Thats a good one

Im always looking at what E30s are on the market for sale and thought I would make a light hearted post about the common sales techniques (lies) people keep using to try and sell their (usually rubbish) E30s. 1. Dry stored for 10 years (probably stored in a driveway without a cover) 2. (Personal fav...

The Typ Number is the same also I thought there where two variants one with edging one without.

What was it advertised as?

advertised as genuine Mtech 1. What do you mean 2 variants? I have no knowledge about this, can you explain ? thanks

Heckspoiler is German for rear spoiler.

Stick the number in to RealOem to check and to be honest a photo or two speaks a thousand words.

This is what mine is missing.

This is the one I bought. Now i look at it, the spacing looks off?

I recently purchased a Mtech 1 rear spoiler which I was told is genuine. It has the marking saying something like Elasto... Heckspoiler and a part number on the bottom left as if you were looking at it on the car. However when looking at others for sale I see that they have a little BMW logo and par...

funny, I just did a search, no DVLA E30 numbers available, and it says you have to bid at auction - give us a link to where you're looking? Paul :-) The registrations are E3O not E3(Zero) - the letter instead of the number. This is the DVLA link where I bought mine from - https://dvlaregistrations....

Aint those plates pretty pricey from DVLA?

Paul

Currently £399 which is the bottom end of number plate prices and they make a nice E30 accessory, especially if you manage to get your initials.

Looks very smart Satan. Thanks for sharing. Picked one up from DVLA. I initially got the idea to buy one from this car because its the first E30 plate I saw.

Anyone willing to share pictures of their E30 plate because I think they look neat and about to buy one.

As above, thanks.

I understand that some people want power and therefore remove the mighty M10 but wondering if there are others like myself who love the M10 engine and wouldnt remove it. I find the engine is more than capable of putting a smile on my face everytime I take the old girl out for a spin. I expect someon...

What carb have you got on ? Weber mate but car had been sitting for years before I started bringing it back to life and gave its engine a refresh. Been driving it for 6 months and slowly ironing out all the little problems that come to light. Did you tune it and what did you do please? Mart. It was...

Thanks for the reply, one of the problems is that there is no steering lock.

the 22mm wont unbolt, feels very stuck, what can i do to undo it? Thanks

Thanks for the helpful replies.

Solved - Carbs needed tuning.
Every M10 problem = carbs

Mine has ripped and need a new one. Its an M10 engine. Cant find it on https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/partgr ... 30-BMW-316
Part number would be helpful. Thanks

Lovely looking car, love the M10 engine. Bottlecaps really suit it in my opinion. What suspension are you running?

really makes me laugh when folk buy a 30yr old car thats in pretty good condition then claim they can't use it more than once a week/month because of it's age, but what do they thing it was designed & built to do?? sit in a heated garage all the time? I would use mine all the time but I'm just too ...

Yup, I've got a 316 carby that I'm using as a daily driver. Seems to be working fine so far, despite the battle with the cooling system when I first bought it! I imagine If I owned a more expensive 320/325 I'd be more apprehensive to drive it. But then if ya don't, seems a shame! Having owned a 316...

Not sure that BMW made reliable cars, here in Germany BMW stands for "bring mir Werkstatt" as the common myth is that Beeema's spend half their life in the shop.

With the things ive heard, this is very true of newer cars and has put me off buying an e46.

I definitely think the pre-facelifts look smart with the black parts as you have all mentioned.

Seems a lot of people only get their cars out in summer. This made me question whether in the sea of financed cars these days, are there any remaining petrol heads who daily or atleast use their E30s often? As we all know the E30s were made at a time when BMW made quality cars and thats why alot of ...

As for the original question more info is needed on the car (M20 or M40 or M10)?

Thanks for all the helpful replies, Ive got a M10.

Interesting question, would also be interested to know because most cars have been resprayed at some point or have been colourcoded.

Dont know why but my car is quite jumpy when im very lightly on and off the accelerator at low speeds. E.g. for speed bumps. Any ideas why this is?

Haha, your neighbours just dont understand what a real car is

Exactly !

no matter if i'm out in the yard working on the e30, or my other car at least one will be moaning about what i'm doing, Steve, firstly ive got to say that those two quotes you have just below your reply are brilliant :D Your situation is a lot worse than mine but backs up the point that people like...

I understand your dislike of this chav but I would expect nothing less from the type of person who has a max power Silvia. Whereas it is hard for me to see how my standard 318 apart from a aftermarket backbox is causing issues whilst idling.

Ive only ever had one guy who didnt seem to understand my excitement at seeing another e30 on the road. Pulled up alongside a very dirty 325 and beeped him and gave him a thumbs up. He looked confused and carried on driving
