Welcome to the zone!
A 318i lux will be a lateish plate touring,perhaps a K or L?
BMW always seemed to do plain but good quality interiors,there are two patterns of front seats fitted,both available s/h with cloth or leather covers.Colour and condition will govern price,but I have sold two standard cloth touring interiors in recent months for around the £70 mark to give you an idea.I have also paid £150 for a touring rear seat in light grey leather!
If you require technical help,a post in the tech. forum will bring you a fast response,we like to help you get the best from your car.
Tourings came with body colour plastic covered bumpers,I have a spare pair of plain black one's in my parts stash,but once again,an advert in the 'wanted' section stating what colour you are looking for may well find you the correct colour.
Please take a few minutes to hunt out the forum rules,especialy before placing adverts....
Thank you.
Oh,you wanted piccies...these are my two E30's,the cabbie is the current project...

Pity! The 5 door 318i (touring) has better brakes, better suspension and more effective rustproofing than the saloon, but welcome to the Zone, anyway.jkm wrote: 4 DOOR SALOON.
I'm still shocked the Diddler hasn't seen this and wet himself that there's another 4 door lover out there 
Dont get me wrong id love a free door but i cant be arsed breaking my back putting baby in back, iv had a phew quats today for leather trim out of some breakers and they all want over £300 any body any ideas? what sort of price do the burbury stile go for? i know its not burbury i just remember the similer trim in novas being called that!

Do you suffer from some strange kind of door related dyslexia? You could arguably call a touring a five door, but a coupe a three door????
coupe is what i wold prefare 4 door is what i have, i, leaving this post i seem to be embarasing myself or maybe you are doing it for me
lol thanx for the help chaps im sure i will be back on soon you can let me know what you think of the 4 DOOR not 5 or 3 or coupe 4 door, lol
