Hi folks,

I purchased another E30 from an Asian guy in High Wycombe at the weekend. They had 6 of them sitting at there house at different states of repair and decay.

The one I purchased is a White Mtec 2 sport, did have red leather but we did a deal and I took it with cloth, Reg number: H554 RKU, guy had owned it for a year or so. Needs a fair but of work but I'm planning on getting it totally stripped next week and off to the bodyshop the week after. Hoping to have it ready by the start of June. It drives A1.

I've had a few in the past amongst loads of other things. I'm only 23, well 24 next week.

E30 316i
E30 325i mtec1
E30 325i mtec2
E30 325i touring
E30 325i mtec2 with S50 mag featured

Bit of a random post but I just wanted to tell someone haha. If you know the car for good or bad let me know :)

Cheers,
Stephen

I had the M3's when I was 18. I agree with the insurance, M3's were on flexibell insurance at the time so wasn't bad atall. I pay a fortune for insurance now which sucks! I'm presuming you don't believe me lol.

Check out www.bebo.com/m7stn

Not been on there in absolute years but logged on and made it visable to everyone and theres plenty pictures of some of my old cars on here from 2006 to 2008ish. Plenty with my M7STN plate on aswell lol. Not very up to date but will give you an idea of how much custard I've had over the years lol.

Go to photos on right hand side about half way down the page, click on view all and theres 2 pages of albums mainly of cars.

Oh ok sorry for jumping to conclusions :)

Haha that's quite good.

Ok so you want me to take pictures of cars that are in my driveway, garage and put a tin of custard in them? Or even better I could put me in them and get someone to take the pictures? Or even better both haha.

Something like that, if it takes your fancy. Great collection of cars you own / have owned. The non - believers will be out sharpening their claws!

Custard is a great leveller.

Custard does not lie :giggle:

"man said it on the internet,must be true" :D

if roy walker asked you to say what you see, some might say they just look like a mish mash of pics and doesnt seem to be any pics of the different cars at the same house/place/garage/drive, all the background houses look different in different looking areas, and hes not pictured with any of them either by the looks of it

To be honest I don't have anything to proove, if you guy's believe me or not it can't change facts. ha.

I do however find it a bit annoying so I'm happy to proove you wrong. Lets use the album "cossie and friends for example":

The pictures of the white sierra, estoril M3, mk1 & mk2 Focus RS's, (3 door cosworth and Mk1 focus RS in same drove) these were taken at Chapelwell Wynd Balmedie. Moving onto the next load of pictures with the white sierra by itself, the yellow mini 30 and MR2 turbo these were taking in Lumsden Way Balmedie.

Lets use the Album "Merc C36 AMG" next, if you look at these pictures the will all be in Lumden Way.

The album "My Mini's", lots of pictures with my plate, pics 9 & 10 were taken in Lumsden Way.

The album "cossie" the majority of these pictures were taken in Lumsden Way. Theres even a cavalier in the drive that'll show up when you use google maps.

"330d" album, pics were taken in bucksburn and all have my plate on.

"Mk1 XR2" from pic 8 onwards all were taken in Lumsden Way, you'll see the Bmw 330d from the album cossie in pic 8 aswell.

Album "M3 Evolution" All pics taken in Lumsden Way.

Album "5 series" Lumsden Way

If that's not enough I can go into details of works carparks / mates houses /random places after this.

Now get onto google maps and start comparing my pics above to see they were all taken at the same place.

It doesn't matter that he is asian. I was asking if people knew the car so put in as much info as I knew.

If he was Scottish I would have wrote:
