You should be able to pick up a 525 for about £500.

My last E34 was an M reg 525 Manual, picked it up local for £460 as he sold it badly on ebay :D spent a couple of hundred quid doing it up, did about 10k in her and old it on for the same price so happy days, very nice car

You'd struggle getting a 325 for that price - if you do it'll be a nail, go for the 525

Because bad grammar makes it hard to read, and you seem like a fucking retard.

Attempting to use grammar is a basic courtesy. Blatant disregard is akin to talking with your mouth full, while covering your mouth with your hand: No-one knows what the f*ck's being said.

.... lessons.
That was my first thought. Difficult to read and make sense of, or what?
Seriously, though, I'd be well pissed-off if anyone put anything of mine on eBay without asking. Severely pissed-off if they actually had the balls to go through with the sale! :mad: :twisted:
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

Sensitive boy aren't you?? You managed to correctly use some apostrophes and almost some exclamation marks. You can do it see!

No one said you're stuck up.

There's a difference between attempting to post something ledgible and not even bothering to try.

Most people, regardless of difficulties can manage capital letters and full stops. Try re-reading what you write before you post it. See if it makes sense.

Certainly not worth getting uptight about. You shouldn't asume people will assume things about you.
