doesn't matter if you're still waiting on insurance docs, building it, converting it or whatever....

I'm 24 but I've only been driving for 3 years. First year I drove a family Volvo 440, then I picked up a shed of an e36 and I've now got my e30 and I'm very happy with it, just wish it worked. Have to use the 440 at the moment, it's going to be weird not being able to left foot brake oversteer anymore when the e30's fixed.

40 TODAY!!! :eek:

And I'm due to pick my SPORT up from the bodyshop later after a freshen up, mostly under the kit, jacking points, scabby bits on sills, rear arch etc.

These threads are funny, some peoples ages are hard to judge when they write.

22 here, on my second and probably last e30, unless a cheap m3 comes up...

Haha... didn't realise that most E30 owners are so young (unless the oldies just dont care or dont know about the zone...) tbh a lot of E30 drivers i see in jersey are older, but by their cars, they just only seem to car about the transport size of things.

I see a few tourings around, hope one of them will be mine oneday!! and maybe one of the few M3s!!
