How long you going to be there for?

If its permanent, then i'd reccomend exporting one as the only ones (well... not only, but very few) post facelift e30's, about 325 sports (325is)

But a guy down the road from my parents is selling or was selling a 318is, for wait for it.....

10,000AUD or roughly 4,000GBP!

AND that wasnt even mint

Yep, we've got a permanent residency visa. Ta ta to the UK, hello Australia! :D

Did look into exporting but looking at £3000+ and thats just for a roll on, roll off ferry. Import tax as well on top! :eek:

Have had a look on Oz eBay and there's a few E30's knocking about. I can bide my time once we get there and one should come hopefully come along. :D

Another in Sydney. There are some nice e30s here, but as very few sports were imported, and no M3s, both cars and parts are hard to come by and expensive. Forget about Hartge, Alpina, Schnitzer etc. I've imported a lot of parts for my car, so it may be wise to bring a suitcase full if you plan on modding!
