Are e30's shite?

They look great as per usual but they handle like crap and are very slow compared to new stuff. They are far from classic's so they only fit into that 'cool' bracket. Did i mention the rust?
The only worthy e30's are the alpinas, and the m3's due the rarity.

I think you did better threads back in the day mate
I think there are more shitters about now, a lot have been weighed that shouldnt have, but there are plenty about that should have been weighed a long time ago. There are still plenty of peasants trying to penny pinch their way to having a decent car and failing.

Come on guys.
Tbh im not going to moan about the handling and all that garbage. Its just all this mistaken belief that the person in the 2011 m3 is looking at your and thinking that its great and a classic etc.
The e30 is an old car. A sub one thousand pound car which many people just buy "because it is rear wheel drive".

Hi Jon long time, have to say due to your post. Why are you even asking. If you don't like them any more then don't bother. That includes posting btw.

Jon, I stopped in a layby the other night to meet Duke off here, a brand new 3 series came past and the guy was on the horn, maybe he was thinking what a pair of sad bastards, maybe he liked the car, who knows, who cares? Not I

OP. It would entirely depend on your E30 and your expectations of it.
Blimey. Chris W - hello

Reminds me of a certain white E30* 'cream puff' that Jon and I plodded up before it went to Northern Ireland. Let's just say the rear inner arch repair panels were 'grrrrrreat'.
*Not a 325i Sport Tech 2. Or was it?
