E30 Zone

to pick up parts for your e30, ive got a three hundred mile round trip to make on friday, i must be mad

i want to spain im mine 1200miles in 2days

I did a 370 mile round trip for an alpina 6 branch from Sal, all my mates told me i was mad

Still haven't got round to getting it fitted, 2 years on.............

I went to Essex twice in 1 week to pick up 2 E30`s,about 400 mile round trip each time

done a 500 mile round trip to get a car, but to pick up parts probably a 80 mile round trip is the most.

6500 so that I found out that the topmounts needed replaced- does that count?

I've done 500 odd to drop an E30 off. Does that count?

Thats dedication.

went to spain in a van with no aircon and it was 40degreesC now thats hard

not in an E30 but i did a 400mile round trip to pick up some volvo BBS 18x8 split rim wheels which i got off ebay for £155 and sold for £620 on ebay 2 weeks later.

I fly from the east coast of US to Germany to pick up stuff. I also pick up things from UK when I am in country.

Well... I went from my home town of Victoria BC, which is on the west coast of Canada to Davos Switzlerland to buy my E30 M3 Cabrio. I left Friday night after work and was back at work tuesday morning.

Plymouth to Kent (Ashford) and back in an evening, January and snowy actaully to drop off a mate who needed dropping, but i bought a Mars bar and a ribena when i was there which i ate in my E30 on the drive back? does that count?

drove from Dubai accross Saudi Arabia to Bahrain (800km) with the roof down in my cabby, an hour after i picked it up, a scary trip and the radio fuse blew about 50km out of dubai, lost the speedo so had no idea of speed or distance and no tunes

mrlee

the longest i have driven to pick something up for the car was 50 km, so nothing to write home about. But the longest trip this car has done in its life was around 700km.

Bedford to Dundee to pick up my car, when I bought it and back again...Bought the car after seeing it in a pic, in top marques mag...

Funnily enough i've only been to Scotland twice, but both times to Dundee

Pal

Went abroad from Ashford in Kent to buy my Sport from Swansea, 500 mile round trip.

Loved every minute of the drive home though

Other time was to a mate's wedding. We left saturday night @ 12 - got there for half eight in the morning - went to the wedding, done the reception - then left at half six, to get home for half three in the morning...that was one crazy trpi

I don't actually remember much from my 1st trip up there, to get the car, except there was a small hut on wheels! close to the sellers house who sold cigs quality...mind you, it was nearly 12 years ago.....no wonder I can't remember bugger all

Pal

Drove 400 miles, from Yeovil to Cambridge and back in a morning to get a new roof!! Cheers Ed!!!

Glasgow to Rugby to pick up my M3

Nearly forgot, when I bought my car I drove down on my own, from Congleton in Cheshire to Cosham near Portsmouth, bought the car, drove it to a friends house in Hassocks near Brighton, then back to Cosham to pick up the car I went down in, then back home. Then went down on the train a week later to pick up the e30.

Checked it on the route planner and its 565 miles, suffice to say i was f***ed by the time i got home!

Cheltenham to Exeter and back to pick up some wheels. To Southend and back to pick up an engine

Also did 1000 miles in one weekend to do a drift practise night at Middlesbrough, then from there to a competition at Crail in Scotland, then home. 997.3 miles I think it was - in a stripped out 200SX with a fixed-back bucket seat and no stereo

Got off the ferry at 7pm one night in Swansea and drove all the way up to Newcastle upon Tyne that night for a few parts. Lots of red bull and coffee.
