The last year or so,I’ll be honest I was more or less using mine as a means of transport.After spending a fair bit of money on long over silly little jobs which have been annoying me or worry me, very nearly all done,I’ll be honest,lack of cash,wasn’t helping.so work Christmas bonus and a little stash of cash really helped.Anyway
1-blown bulb,on head light switch under steering column.
2-rubber surround around fuel filler.
3-4 new tyres.
4-bonnet gas strut,(fed up with getting smashed on the head)
5-found the ofending plug lead which was causing a slight misfire, replaced.
6-new dizzy cap and rotor arm.
7-a lot more serious,cam belt kit long ovdue,like year and half.I know I’m lucky.
8-a service.
9-new battery,which was nacked,I’m not surprised I found the original Halfords bill,2013.
10-wineing rear wheel bearing.
I know it’s a 320, but god when I put my foot down it pulls like a train.I now look forward to driving it everyday.
Back in love with my E30.

Good to hear mate. I always notice that if I spend a bit of time and money on mine, I end up loving her again. It’s when it sits there unused that you start to wonder.. how much is it worth
