:cool: :cool: looking tech-1 you have there dude.

makes me wish i hadn't sold my tech-1 track car :cry: & got it fully road legal.

don't worry bout that pic of the rust as if you catch it in time it shouldn't cost you to much to repair.

now i know most folk on here will say ditch the tech-2 spoiler but if you ask me (&not many do lol) it look's ok (can i hear :shoot2: ?).

any way get it sorted & get out there & drive it & enjoy it dude.

steve.
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

It looks nice.

I am one of those who going to say you need to drop the tech2 spoiler and put the tech1 on as it will round off such a loverly shape. I love the colour too , but then I am rather biased :D

Yeah im going for a tech 1 spoiler, just finding one thats the issue.....

Also removing the m badge off the back, but for £1420, not a bad buy i think....

Nice mate - sorry to hear it wasn't as described but still looks good for the money. Another +1 to ditch the Tech 2 spoiler :cool:

So future plans include:

looking to service it later this week, get body issues sorted, put clear front and side repeaters on, get some centre caps for the wheels, M Tech 1 spoiler in place of M Tech 2, take M badge off rear, M Tech 2 steering wheels........thats about it i think.

Hey Stu, glad you've finally got an e30, I know you've been searching for quite a while!

The car looks really good and comparing it to all the other e30s you've considered, I definetly think you made a wise decision, even if does need a bit of work.

Keep us updated on your chromie :cool:

looks like a decent buy, am another that agrees tech 1 boot spoiler would be much more suited to the car, as would a tech 1 steering wheel. Good luck with it all and keep us updated! :cool:

Looks lovely. Looks like that may be a bargain. Feels like it is not that rusty.

Chromie is dumb. Metal bumper is a more accurate description.
