Not really.

My car has less miles and is showroom condition!

There is another zoner with a 318i cabrio with less than 30k on it.

Low mileage E30's are getting thin on the ground though.

Milage doesn't really affect these cars too badly anyway (especially sub 80k).

Jersey's full of low mileage E30s. We could flock them over for a tasty profit! Most are < 60k.

Also, a 318i lux isn't exactly a desirable model, whereas a Tech 1, Tech 2 or Motorsport Cabby would be a better car in that condition. Let alone an M3 8O

I know a mint, mint, mint 325i sport in dolphin grey with <19k on the clock. Most of them are motorway miles from trips too. Garaged car. My mates dad would never sell up on that though!!

Just look after it. They're nice cars anyway, and when they're clean and working well, they're so much better. Just enjoy it! :)

millions of low milage E30's in this part of the World as they all orginate from Japan where the MOT regulations practically prevent any car with over 100000km.

the point i am making is a low milage E30 is not such a rare beast and as its a mass produced car they will never be rare and thus worth loads.

for what its worth drive the car, enjoy it and look after it, it will be worth the same value at a later date anyway
