So a 325i manual popped up for sale near me for £795 with just over 70k on the clocks. I've never owned an E30 before, but to me this sounds a bit cheap especially for a 325. The thing looks a bit of a shed too and obviously needs work doing but I don't want to waste my time with it if it's going to be a lost cause. So what say you? Is the price too good to be true? Pics below.

It's only rot that kills e30s really check all the usual places I believe there's a buyers guide pinned on the forum somewhere, if its tax & tested I think £795 isn't bad but would be nicer if it was £600 
good luck

Thanks, I'll have to go check it out! Also should've mentioned that the car isn't taxed or tested.M-sport325 wrote:It's only rot that kills e30s really check all the usual places I believe there's a buyers guide pinned on the forum somewhere, if its tax & tested I think £795 isn't bad but would be nicer if it was £600

Looking at the trim and the axed rear valance, I am guessing that is a lowly four pot with a 6 pot engine 'thrown' in to it. Under bonnet pics / dealer spec check will confirm all.
320 and 325 engines look similar to the untrained eye so be careful !

Thanks for the advice, I'll be sure to look into that. Exactly how similar are they? From what I can see the key giveaway is the intake manifold?pacerpete wrote:Looking at the trim and the axed rear valance, I am guessing that is a lowly four pot with a 6 pot engine 'thrown' in to it.
