Do you know of any retail sellers of e30s?

I know of Old Colonel Cars, and years ago Chris Warburton,
could you guys let me know if you know any other reputable dealers?

Hopefully will have my 316i auto touring finished soon and would like to trade it in to get at least a manual 318i if not something even better :D

Why don't you sell it privately? Write a proper advert with some well taken pictures. No pound of flesh to a trader who will do the same thing

Thanks guys, (esp Datourer/Cloggy for remembering me) ;)

Was thinking I have a very low miles car, (42k) and wanted to use it as a bargaining tool to get a bigger engined car, and have a bit of comeback.
Was just a thought really.

Tony, there are two sides to every story so would you care to elaborate?

Pm me if you wish.

Well it's not really is it as your comment is implying otherwise which is unfair.

So.. would you like to discuss it here or via pm?

I for one think Munich Legends is a fantastic company, they have never left a customer feeling cheated or robbed.

No one has ever had a negative experience whilst dealing with them and anyone suggesting otherwise should watch as their favourite child is pushed in front of a slowly moving tram.

I've never dealt with Munich Legends personally so can't comment on their level of service from a personal experience.

However, a well known Zoner did tell me a story once which left me shocked! I wouldn't think this Zoner would have made it up either! I won't be giving any names nor delving any further into the story. IIRC this was when it was under old ownership or something? I'm not too sure.

As of recently though, I think they're great!

Oh yes, I seem to recall some tale about LSD-flavoured pumpkins being removed from certain cars and replaced with normal ones.

Whether it's true or not, I don't know...

Since working at ML I have been privy to what went on by the people who RAN the business under the previous ownership (the original owner being a banker who had no real day to day input other than storing his race cars there) from the few remaining staff that still work there and to be honest it was down right discusting.
