How many true members ??

[DJL1987]

I don't post much, just wanted to buy stuff off here and I like to read stuff, but I have one!

[TPS]

I will never sell my sport as not only does it owe me money ill never get back, not only do i love the car it also has alot of sentimental value attached to it.

I know what you mean, I'll never ever get back the Money, I've throw at E30s over the years.

[chazmcdonald]

in new here and really enjoy the forum dont post all the time because im always scanning through the technical section, its interesting reading what people have been upto an how they overcame problems, ive had 15 E30's 16 including the one ive got just now,F plate white chrome bumper 325i convevable mot'd and taxed and my daily driver,

E30 was the first bm i ever bought i still love the driving experience, look, noise and everything else as much now as i did then and ive never had that with a car before, it has more character than alot of cars that are around nowadays an people always compliment it because its good looking, so its win win for me

[suhinaffy]

I just bought my first E30 a couple of months back, Its a 325 tourer in lach silver. I mainly use the site to look for spares etc.

so been around a while, had some good times on here, but this place has cost me lots and saved me lots over the time but its a great place.

only ever owned 2 e 30 the one i have now and the one i bought as a donor car for the one i currently own.

not sure if this is a claim to fame as such but i once spent 26hrs solid on here with out going to sleep ! with out the aid of anything but coffee i may add.......................oh life was so easy when i was single

[e301988325i]

I'm here piling unjustifiable ammounts of time and money into my first and only E30, which is slowly d=getting better and better although not on fuel!

[Dezzy]

26 hours solid without class A's?

Can't argue with that, If a little tragic.

[mce30]

Still here. got one e30 and put another to rest.

[GemE30]

Meee

Current E30: '88 325i SE with dubious future

Previous E30's: '89 325i SE Touring & '90 320i SE Auto 2dr

[rhubarb]

current:320i touring

previous: 320i 2 door

[glenn]

still here,
and look in every single day

[StevenC3828]

e30s started with a 320i 2 door daily. Then I got another mostly broken 320i to fix #1, sold 320i, got Lachs 325iX touring, 318i moredoor for spares, 325ix more door (crashed & sold), 325iX diamondschwartz touring personally imported from Austria (now sold).

Lachs 325iX touring is still in the back garden after 4 years of life got in the way of completing the jacking points! Now have a 525iX touring as my daily.

Don't post often but do have a read frequently

[Tommek]

I`m online almost everyday and i have a 1993 316i E30 Touring

[bss325i]

Its interesting how many people come on here often/weekly/daily and post so little.

[tommo325]

am on here daily and have a 325 2 door

[kieran325]

Up to 200ish

I'm here daily but I have nothing constructive to say.

So we can safely say out of 41000 members we have less than 1% who actually own E30's, how odd.

[hazd31]

320i cabby, daily untill last week

20000 miles a year in it

will be back on the road in november!

[Rav335uk]

[Duke137]

Pointless thread IMO

There is blatently not 41000 E30's going to put there name down and nor will you get a true understanding of who has/hasn't got an E30 in one form or another.

The way I see it is when they start drying up for sale on eBay then there ain't many left....

PS I have an E30 on the road.

[kieran325]

It's trying gauge the number of members who have actually got an E30 and still post something, whether it's knowledgeable stuff or utter guff.

I'm beginning to lose interest now in the E30, I cant put my finger on it

[sh55123]

I am on my 7th e30, having owned 2 323i's, 3 325i's (including a tech II sport with a c2.5 engine conv by sytner nottingham), a 320i moredoor and my current fully restored cab. I love them, and have loved them for 27 years now - had brand new ones and rust buckets, and still think they are one of the best BM's ever made - a masterpiece.

[grantfk10]

I've been here for over 5 years, currently SORNed the E30 cabby, and got a freshly MOT'd E36 touring as a winter runner.

/quote]

Or who actually read this thread, and can be bothered to reply and add there details?


It's never going to be a true indication of how many members/cars are on the road/still active.

[poolnoodle]

Owned my '83 Bronzit 323i since 1995. Once a daily driver now just for weekend fun.
Have looked for another E30 but not found one worthy of sitting alongside the current fleet.

Been on here for a few years but only really post when I need some info or have something worthwhile to contribute...
Being a colonial, when I am on line, most of you are in bed!!

Great site - wouldn't have got to this point without it.
I only wish I could find such a good site to help with restoration of my '72 2002
Is there a an '02 version of brianmoooore out there somewhere

[rrs]

I have a 325i touring and have been here a little over a year but look in at least once a week. This is the first "daily" car I've felt confident enough to take on all the maintainance for the keep it reliable and also the first "old" car I've used everyday a large part of that can be atributed to this forum and its active members.

I don't post much and I've only been to 1 meet so far, I really ought to make the effort and be more active.

[TouringTash]

Post when I don't succumb to the dark side.
have two tourings at the mo and if a rotten iX turns up for sale I'll have 3.

[jaymos]

You are giving a % after a couple of days and people are still posting, where is the logic in that?

[kieran325]

It's not exactly precise figures but gives an idea, we need 410 E30's to make 1%.

I doubt we will never know what the exact figures are

[Tedswagon]

I think this is a bit daft - if you really want a true reflection I think there should be a register.

BTW - my daily is 1988 325i coupe looks good in Bronzit!!!!!!!!

[Tedswagon]

There are 608 albums in the members E30s and half the people on here cant put up photos!

[SDM]

Mine's still going, although now longer a daily drive...

don't get time to pop on here either, work n wife etc...

[bdx]

318 is

Previous 325i wrote off by ex-missus

[M3Jim]

Still have mine, and visit here often, It's coming into the ground with me. I think even if I was homeless I wouldn't sell it.... I'd sleep in it!!

[Green]

I have my 88 320 turned 325. My first e30 and hopefully not my last

I lurch pretty much everyday around the site.. mainly on parts for sale as i'm a bit of a dreamer
