Hey,

I have just joined the club. I am 24, single and I have an E30 318i that used to be the second family car. I come from Greece and I am studying in the UK so there is not enough time or money to improve it. Just for the record it is running on its 1st motor with 360,000 km on the meter.

Thanks for the welcome!! Yeah a lot of Kilometers. Although after all this km and almost 18 years since it was bought the engine is losing a small amount of oil every 4,000 - 5,000 km.

The average E30 Zone member is aged 30-40 and is unmarried but living with a spouse,employed,earning £30k+ per year to pay for the mortgage they have on their own home.

This was the conclusion from five seperate polls in which 430 votes were taken.

Er, I'm 39 and employed, but married, earning a lot less than £30k per yr, and have a large mortgage on my own home, and a '94 318i Touring. Wife has a 54 plate Hyundai, I've also got a J-plate Nova that hasn't moved since last July when I got the Touring - my 6th BMW...
