I would loose the stickers as well, maybe get the dish polished??

Still deciding if I like the idea of spacers.

The moredoor has the wrong number of doors but is totally rot free. It's now got the right engine in. It was a good lerning cerve. Also it's tech2 kitted, with every bush replaced. It has some very nice little trinkets fitted and will make a very good road car when finished

Almost the complete oppersite from a rotten 2.5 reshelled alpina :wink:
You know what I don't know what your problem is with me and my car Dezzy but I don't find it funny in any way, just seems another one jumping on a band wagon slagging me and the car off when I actually spent time and good money getting it all tidy. Seriously banter is banter but I see that as offensive and just tryingto get a massive argument happening and a load jumping on a band wagon like this goes on about.

Of course I would bite because I am sick to death of it.

Just like it's easy to wind you up going on about how a 12 valve m30 is the best engine to drop in a e30. People just can't help them selves with things. I still don't see why you try and egg me on, I guess what ever floats your boat. :roll:

You made a coment about my car I did the same about your t bag turd. I don't see why your getting your panty's in a bunch. Unlike you I do find it funny. I couldn't care less about what someone who doesn't know me or my cars thinks because they are mine. I think you should do the same. Unless you only have your Alpina to please others?

Chin up winters nearly over :wink:

actually i think the M30 is a decent donk just can't see the point in putting that much weight over the front wheels now M52 motors can be had for penuts.

Mines done 233,000 miles and does not drop a single specs of oil. Hell it don't even smoke any more! And yes it does have the right level of oil in it!
all m20's leak oil

an m20 with out an oil leak is not an m20. even brianmoore will confirm that
I was under the impression they burn oil rather than leak it everywhere.
My M20 does not leak or burn oil at all!

Of course not! I have already stated that in this thread. I am pulling your leg.
All M20/30 donked E30 owners do seem very touchy though.

I think it's your slow heavy engine's dragging you down. :wink:

All is good Dezzy, I take all this Engine bollocks with a pinch of salt.
You're throwing money into an engine that'll see slightly more performance figures than that of some M20's, Si's Alpina, and my M30, but mine was Cheap. :mad:

Ah yes, but i would only condone one 24v lump into an E30 to make it worth the effort, S50, nothing else.

What about a shrick sticked 3.0lt M50 with close to (hopefully) S50 power?
Not worth a consideration?
