E30 Zone

An issue we've all encountered....

So, you're driving along in your gleaming chariot, pass through a council estate and what's that? An unloved E30....ooh, its a nice model/engine that is clearly in the wrong hands and could be worth £1500, £2000, £2500 with that rustspot treated, panel resprayed, wing fixed etc.

What to do? Note under the wipers? Knock on the door? Offer him a fair price or offend him with pocket money to increase your profit? Assume he knows nothing of their value?

Are there still people out there (given how widespread access to internet is) who don't know the value of an E30 these days?

Never treat anyone like a cu*t.
Assume they do & just knock on the door and play it by ear.

I've had at least two little penis crusts offer me chump change.

So to sum up.... don't be a penis crust.

they will tell you it's a classic car and worth at least a grand !

i can beat that there is 2 baurs in an industrial estate in Darlington that have been there since around 2000-2001 one has now gone, the one left is a C reg silver 320i baur on bottle tops

Not just in your area then

And that little bit of rust is expected with a car of that age. And the wheels are worth £500 on they're own... Pretty Rare bottletops you see

The owner probably has grand delusions of doing them up one day.

Ha, people often comment I do smell/taste of penis crust.

here's a "CLASSIC"example !

325i wrong door,rotten arches but hey it's a "collectors car " and worth a grand .

"Excellent condition apart from minor rust on 1 wheel arch."

Female seller....says it all.

The picture of the rust does look like it is a case of the paint having peeled and there being rust on the surface of the metal. But I realise it will be rotten properly.

There's one on an industrial estate near me ! Reg coupe 323 genuine alpinas, stood since 02 that I know of, rusty as hell no t&t he won't even sell for £500!

no good without pics

Check out this sorry looking cab...



Been stood there for a few years.

i see the centre caps have had enough and long since walked off .

Can't believe they won't sell them ?

I know of a rare .... Because it is early E46 (sorry guys) 328Ci Coupe on a T registration when they first came out .... Silver .... 17 inch understated Yuppie Star spoke alloys like I got .... Stood since 2008 that I can remember .... In Hammersmith not on a council estate but near one ....

I know of a nice looking T Registration 328Ci Coupe in Richmond St Margaret's looks sweet .... Considering these are getting rarer

At least they had the decency to park it in bay M20

I remember a guy used to park a silver 325i sport under a tree near my train station every day. I dont think he ever cleaned the bird sh*t off in 2 years! Always wanted to ask him if he would sell it to me, wish I did now!!
