Hi Guys, new to the forum but not the marvel that is the E30. Many moons ago I had a Sterling Silver H26 G*** XRG. God I miss that car!!!! Anyone know where it is now? South Coast last I heard.

Anyway, ever since my good mate zippy (Gaz) bought a rather nice bexley 325i Sport I seem to be having strange urges to buy another E30!!!

Just need to pass my 205 Mi16 on and I might be back on the hunt..... Great forum btw... :D

Welcome mate. :cheers:
H26 - nice :cool: :cool:

Ive got a couple mates with 205s. One 1.9gti and the other an Mi16 on 45s (I think, maybe 40s??). Still, which ever, its hellish quick but is forever being tuned and re-tuned. :roll: :mad:

Get yourself back in an E30, do away with the French FWD wrongness :lol: :lol:

Keep the Mi16 205 and get an E30 as well! :)
Ive always wanted to build a mint Mi16 205 for a track car but have never got round to it.
Since learning how much fun RWD is though I think if I ever do build a track car it will be an E30. :)

Na mate, it was a bloke called Damien or Darren from the Isle of Wight who bought it off me in 2001 (I think - christ was it that long ago!!)

Was a very nice car and was sorry to see it go but needs must at the time :(
