E30 Zone

Did anyone see wheeler dealers on sky ages ago, The programme with mike brewer. The one where they did a 325i touring up, Just wondered who the guy showing his mint touring off was, it was silver i think and i think he was welsh. Just wondered because he mentioned e30 zone.

I remember seeing that, no idea who it was though

I've got that episode on my PC, the owner was indeed a zoner

Notice that Mike Brewer and Ed China fitted a standard exhaust system from ECP then claimed it was a stainless performance exhaust when selling it

Cheers,

The car in question is now owned by gazza325cab, much to his dismay and misfortune though

Yeah remember that, didnt they put a snidey chrome cover on the standard zaust. Cheeky gits.

Is that the touring wheeler dealers sorted out or the silver one?

The nice silver zoner owned car.

This is the car.





All im going to say is the previous owner of this car was a total and utter
And he was a zoner!!.

Loved that program and the car.

what was up with it gareth, i always thought it was well sorted car from what i had heard

I really like that programme, but there is one thing that bugs me...

he only ever makes a pretty small profit and the maths he does to show the profit are not including any labour by good old Ed. If labour or at least the costs of the upkeep on his workshop were factored in, then they'd never see a profit

Brewer does spout some proper porkies sometimes when flogging the cars

Chris,

Is a very unpleasent story and makes my blood boil just thinking about. And it's still not finished.

It's lasted 5 months. And the Police, DVLA and County Court, have been involved.

And this is not my doing. Very messy and between two zone regular's.

At the end of the day its an old BMW.

Honesty and Trust should come into any purchase between zoners.

Unfortunetly this didn't happen.

Buy me a coffee at Ferrybridge and I will tell you all about it.

Cheers Gareth.

Neil.

You got us all interested now..

Yup im also interested please!

Andrew

yes this sounds very interesting please do tell

Any news on this?

Andrew

If the courts are involved he'd be better off not saying a word until its all over with....

So hurry up- we all want to know!

I really dont know where it would get us all, if I told my story.

It would probably turn into a slanging match and go of subject very quickly.
The other zoner doesn't post on here anymore.
Maybe that tells you something.

I would however check if I was him to see!.

Poor Gazza found out that the car was fake just like his Msport. Quick, where's the Msport Police

If the other Zoner doesn't post here anymore then it's not going to turn into a slanging match is it mate, so come on spill the beans

I might start selling the story for 99p a go on eBay

im on the edge of me seat waiting to find out
you take paypal?

Hmm Group buy anyone

Gazza.. i can understand where your coming from. Same thing happened to me.. I still got it. In 2 minds whether to fix it up or do a 2.7 and keep it, or just flog it and start afresh. (2.7 is looking good.. Gonna try building it myself! )

The seller doesnt post on here anymore, but it was the same scenario.. You thinkyou'd be able to trust zoners, but obviously not.

What have i started here, I only asked who the car belonged to, Soz Gareth.

oh dear sounds like a barrel of laughs not.

former keeper was so well known and oldskool too!

Gareth have u had loads of pm's now from all your new mates on here asking?!

youve got to spill the beans now mate, might as well give your side of what ever happened and if the other party disagrees then im sure he'll chip in with his side,he might not post anymore but im sure he'll still read now and again.i dont know anyone involved but im curious now

I'm curious as a mo-fo too!
