316 M10... Worth saving? Pics added!!

[Loony]

offer him £50 then scrap it

[Ritchie]

Im interested to know how almost all of you guys think this car is instantly scrap?

From the pictures (ok there not great) there appears to be no rot and this is a two door shell. Scrap the fecker if its rotten but for all we know this might be a little belter underneath?
Just because it looks crap doesnt mean it is!
Before you can condemn it you need to see pics of the floor, sills, inner rear arches, inner wings etc.
Come on guys, before long we will be lamenting the loss of half decent shells.

Nothing to do with your car being in it too? (even if it is in B&W and next to the portaloos!)

If that car was lowered on 15"bbs and had a bit of a shine on it everybody would be saying "save it".
If it is rot free it DOES have potential.

Complete and utter abortion

If you want to modify an E30 with an M10 look for an M10 engined 318i, then to modify it use a snail

Carburetors are so last century

Yup I think they have bigger valves than carb versions as well.


This car is worthless.

Not at all!
Just cos red is better! Im just happy to see any pic of mine! Your one looks cool though but youve got polish in your bodykit.

When you can buy a tidy MOT'd 2 door E30 for £500 and less why waste time on scrap ?

[kuSt]

i got a shiny black 316i (m40) with 6 months mot and bbs wheels for £290, and that was from a dealer.

this thing isn't even worth £50 (unless you want to cannibalise it).

in fact, some guy one here from glasgow was giving a nice 316i away for nothing...keep looking.

edit: i think people seem to be saying scrap it, because it has bits of other cars on the front and back.

i suppose it comes down to how much f@cking about you want to do with it...

still doesn't change the fact that it's only worth £50 scrap/spares/repair

give it a good wash wax and t cut then it might look pretty good

then buy a turbo lol
