Fun couple of days

[Be30]

Hi all
Thought id make a post here as we all need a bit of entertainment now the weather is sh* and i need a but if advice!

I drove with a few other mates up to Milton Keynes yesterday as Ollie had seen a Mk1 Golf for sale up there and i had also seen a Pfeba body kit for sale on ebay... which i won for the huge sum of £41!!

I drove up in my 318i e30 touring and it didnt miss a beat for the 430 miles we covered whilst hauling all our tools and luggage and hitting 180,000 miles on the clock, properly impressed with it.
After picking up the golf and the pfeba kit we proceeded to come all the way back home stopping every thirty minutes to let this golf cool down and top up its water. What a heap.
All the while the e30 munched up the miles


Heres the kit, missing front lip and one of the “ears” for the side skirts:

Really nice chap who sold it, shame i wasnt able meet him really- he may be on here to be honest

Does anyone know how to fit the side skirts? I know its a preface kit so im not sure what modifications i would need to do. I was originally just going to tidy it up and keep it for another day but ive seen some picturea if it on and i think it looks really cool...

Anyways, today the white touring ive been breaking went to be cubed up and made into beer cans... which made for quite a picture

You're lucky to have found a scrap car, as around by me they're extremely rare . Back in the day 15 years ago I had a 20 ft shipping container rammed with spares and was able to pick up mot failures for £100 , just looking at the prices and availability oh how I wish I'd kept it

I have not SEEN an e30 for nearly two years now

Oh wow! Bet there was some rare stuff in all that too...I was lucky enough to pick up the other white touring for £150, non sunroof shell as well! No engine in it so for the minute ill put in the one that came out the one i broke

Hows it going Mart? Two years without seeing another e30 ?!!! On the drive to M Keynes i was passed by a two door which had quite a keen driver in it by the sounds of it hehehe
(Hope those Baur badges are coming along okay?)

Going OK mate
I`ve been very tired recently so most stuff has been on the back burner but definitely not forgotten , and the wet weather has put a "damper" on it for now but I will be back

I thought it was spadge/jules when you said about MK.

He was a big trader on here a while back.
