There was a blue one for parts somewhere at Pattinson industrial estate a while back. Fibreglass panels = shoddy fit.

That car would sell for the equivilant about 2000 pounds over here in Australia. It scared me how cheap (or free) you get E30s in Great Britain.

question: is the cassette holder that goes next to the handbrake worth anything ? not the whole console. just the cassete holder.

Casette holder is worth nothing mate, they always tend to break. Who uses casettes nowadays anyway.
If you are gonna break it smithy I'll b interested in some bits.
