Thanks mate....
Been studying design for the best part of my education....So i guess photography comes hand in hand.

It has taken me a while to put pics of my bemma on the site....lol
I will be changing them regularly so watch this space.

I did want a pic of an engine on there too but...At the mo mine is only a 316i, wen i upgrade maybe.

Welcome to the Zone

Nice ride you got there, v. rare. Take some more pics and get it submitted to the owners bit.

I saw the ads in the back of the BM mags and have read the reviews. Proper stealth cars these especially in 4 door guise.

These guys http://www.320is.co.uk/ are supposed to be putting together their website just for this model. However, just like Munich Legends they never update the messages.

I am looking to get a 320is soon , looking about there are a few for sale. I have just spoken to Rob320is from here and here sent me this pic of his interior - does this look like factory air con to you guys ? Does anyone know what this fan vent unit is below the heater controls ?

Welcome to the zone mate, nice car!


dtmpower, my car has the same aircon system, Demlotcrew reckoned it was aftermarket, but the centre grill in the centre console has a BMW mark on the rear, most of the system seems to be different to the usual E30 system though..

Cool, will have nearly every option in the book then, it was something I wanted to do, but it's a lot of work, and a lot of money to get working properly, good luck though!
