E30 Zone

Hi all

summer is coming and i ve had a bit of interest for my J reg e30 320i cabby

so just wanted to know what you all think its worth got a few pics of it thought id put them on just to give you all a peak of how it looks

its got 106k on it and i have all the mots to prove the mileage since 2000 its been driven 30k

its been lowered 40mm all around has an electric roof that works and the hood itself is perfect its also got heated black leather seats at the front that still work its got HID conersion with matching angel eyes fitted to the original smily headlights has a carbon fibre induction kit fitted to it

has 17inch alpina reps in excellent condition

take a look pls

cheers

My new car is parked next to it

if the body's good, the interior's good, its been maintained and with the lowering you changed the shocks etc, and the its a genuine m-tech... i could see you getting anywhere between 2500 to 4k for it.

Much closer to 2500 though.

i value it at £1500 with plenty of T&T

To get top dollar out of it you need to be 100% original to spec etc.

I agree.

I'd agree with £1500, what's the spec on the replacement?

With a fair bit of MOT/Tax on it, i would say close to around 2k

More pic's and info would be needed though

Would you all value it higher if it was a 325 ?

Yep if it was in good condition too

yep!!!

One thing that stands out to me as a potential "bad point" the front and rear look like Tech 2 or late E30 and the side looks early E30 and it doesn't all quite go together smoothly

I may be wrong as not seen in the flesh but that would make me look at it twice.

It still has alot of good points though dude so don't get disheartened its not a 325

Agree on the sides not looking balanced with the front and back. If it had side skirts to match the front or had the front and rear standardised along with removal of the eye brows and BKs.

Nearer 2k if the above was done.

I'm not sure if it really makes that much of a difference being a 320 over a 325. A decent cabby 6 pot is nice regardless of 320 or 325 - IMO obviously.

BBS alloys, either a full kit or no kit, and you'd be looking at 1500-2500 depending on exact condition imho.

BBS alloys, either a full kit or no kit, loose the black kidneys, chromed instrument surounds and eyebrows and it would be £1500 all day. closer to summer - on a sunny day - you could go for £2000 +

As above, get some tech-2 skirts (and bumpers) & remove some of the non-OEM stuff if you want to get the best ££££ for it...

erm i am shocked i thought id get 2k for it all day long like it was

the iam looking for some m tec 2 side pods and skirts think that will make it look better

cheers for your thoughts lads

fit the correct body kit and a nice set of bbs with a good detail you might see 2k

make sure that chrome tat is removed too

As it stands? £1500 tops.

I'd recommend to get it as close to standard as you can and you may pull somewhere near what you're looking for.

Then ebay all the tat and you'll make a grand total of £15 grand from all the council types "surfin da bay innit"

I know it's off topic but what is the spec of your new motor, looks nice - just interested mate.

new car is a 2002 911 turbo just had it remapped form porsche specialist running nicely at 505bhp my e30 isnt for sale

If the E30 isn't for sale why are you asking about it mate? Also, zoners would all take your cabby (if you were looking to sell) as original as possible, you'd be better selling on Piston heads or car and classic to get nearer to what your after

IMO

Nice looking car mate - also as above, why would you ask how much if it's not for sale.

i ve had a few people nosing around it they ve been making me offers i just wondered how much it was worth i ve bought the porsche but its not a cabby and summers coming so i thought if i get a good enough offer id sell it and buy some nice wheels for the porsche but thats if the price is right

Nice idea, what wheels you thinking about for the porker?

iam thinkin some deepdish bbs wheels for it something like 20s with wide rubber for the back its a 4x4 but when you press it around a corner your butt cheeks go tight it was either that or a jeep for the missus you know what i went for

so i ve bought some nice bbs wheels for the porker and missus isnt to happy i am though so iam selling the cabby put it on ebay for 2300 with a veiw at selling it for around the 2k mark

hi all

sold the car guy come down had a look offered me 1800 i said take it he was a happy chappy told him bout the forum aswel

cheers for all the advice

should have sold the porker instead.

you could have bough this with the change
