:D :D :D :D :D :D

I love it already!!!

needs a few things sorted out, stonechipped bonnet, missing glovebox handle, new mats and a new drivers seat!

Anyway, here goes:

BMW 316i (insurance friendly :D )
4 owners from new
FBMWSH up until 2003, then privately serviced form then.

The eagle eyes will notice it isnt taxed :( so not had a proper shot of it yet, but the engine runs sweet as a nut :D

Clean bay for a 14 year old car!

Still got original BMW factory tool kit, which is a brucey bonus :)

Anyway, what do we think?

Nice car coldo - well done, looks a good 'un.

Get ready to start spending your hard-earned wedge on making trick bits and performance mods...you have been warned!

E30s are addictive :cool:

Yeah I was the same, nervous as hell. Went from a 1.4 306 to this. Had to drive it home from Haywards Heath nr Brighton in the pouring rain on my own... Was amazing to get it though!!

Oh and nice clean car by the way!!
