They are not as interesting as what non-E30 heads think.

To disrespect a standard car is pointless as it's just a standard car - if you don't like standard you don't like E30s. It's when you mod too much that you attract criticism.

Anyway, I like the width and breadth of comments from the young / old public at large. Some get the magic, others don't see it at all.

I used to get that a lot too, and when i sold it nobody would believe that I bought an e46 M3 with the money and had some change!

Same old shite here too. "But it's J reg. Its old. It's not got much space in the back" etc etc etc. I care not. The good comments far outweigh the bad ones..

never realy had any, my ex nextdoor neighbour said that he always thought they were a bit of a girls car. but then he was a tool

the worst has to be a guy who commented it was "a bit of a beast" (i had just stopped in a car park after taking the entry "flat", to follow it up with "no way is it 20 years old, golf isnt it?" :x

My first 318i more door was an ex-dealers car, found out when I was forced to stop by three cop cars and one puzzled old copper, he didn't expect me to get out! Got sorted and the min I got home I stripped it just in case there was anything to find winkeye
