I've still got the guts of a carphone in my 88E 325iX. Also got a Techart module which attaches to the side of the centre console to hold a carphone handset.

My a/c is out of gas, my headlamp levellers and wash/wipe seem to have given up the ghost. I've got the black plastic tidy which sits on top of the battery. I have the original radio-cassette with speed-sensitive volume control (in a cupboard somewhere). I've got the Westfalia detachable towbar too.

Anyone else got a 4 spoke airbag wheel which doesn't adjust in any plane, is ugly as sin and is the size of ship's wheel?

are there any differences between the recaro SR's in the sport evo and new universal SR's from say, Demon Tweeks for example
the frames are unique ( hight/tilts/recline) adjustable

also the trim pattern in leather is different

Got an original BMW Smoked Sunroof deflector on my Tech 1 and the MK1 rear flat black number plate surround, Normally found on the Aplina cars.

And I have a few BMW radio blanking plates from an e30, now they are rare.

An original steel wheel (spare) in the Tech 1 NEVER USED with a Goodyear NCT65 tyre again never used.

A small poineer amp 2x 25 watts located under the passenger seat, still works. and original pioneer 5 1/4 on the footwells and rear shelf..

Did have the factory phone with the arial hole in the rear quater panel (which was remove and a black gromit put in place.)

Hiya, its still available from the dealer I just replaced mine 2 weeks ago, as my old one was craked.

It cost me about £22.00 in total. But it was a back order from Germany.

Does look nice and unusual.

A '91 touring I bought to break had a factory fit BMW phone in it. It all still worked, beeped at you when you turned the ignition key and lit up with the Vodaphone logo. Unfortunately being analogue it wouldn't work on today's digital network. I imagine it could have been modified to work but it went to the scrappy with the remains of the shell.

Image

That car also came with black split folding touring sport leather with rear head rests, working A/C, switchable auto, full-size rear load cover etc., etc.. Had to be the best specced E30 I've ever seen and had the original sales receipt in the history for £30k+ from '91. :o
