Watch it al the time but never seen the e30 you've mentioned!
The only one I saw was when one of his employees e36's headgasket goes in an M40 or something so they take an M40 from a E30 but the sump won't clear the crossmember, a lot of faffing and bodging later and they succesfuly fit an engine older than the car, I've never seen a less powerfull older, higher mileage engine fitted to a car before.

Wheels are momo arrows I believe and the windows are blacked. Jocks a big BM fan. Wouldn't be surprised if it's his. It is always there and looks mint to me. Possibly a Tech 1 if you look closely.

Funny.
The e30 is a pre 88, and at first I thought it was a convertible. Still not sure.

Could just be the picture, but the spoke look the wrong shape for arrows. They have a concave design. I had some on my council e34 a few years back.B7 wrote:Wheels are momo arrows I believe and the windows are blacked. Jocks a big BM fan. Wouldn't be surprised if it's his.

I was there last week, saw the car from outside and got chatting to Glen. Sound lad, He said he used to have an E30 cab. He was working on a Merc SL with an electric roof that was stuck, didn't want to hold him up. He didn't say what sort of E30 it was, that side of the garage was closed. Didn't want to go wandering around inside the garage either. (much as I would have liked to)
Jock was just leaving on his moped as I came along.
I like that show.

So there you go.

Did you point out all the extra business he would get when (if) we all get there, because most of the e30's here would need a service by the time the got there! Can you imagine the show...... 10 E30's lined up to have an oil change.B7 wrote:I have. And suggested a zone road trip to Marbella for a night on the lash with them? Might be something to think about in the spring?

someone organise it... i would soo be up for that, plus he would get tons of business from me, my touring would be shagged by the time i got there... he's end up going back to the scrappy and pulling another engine out for me
