Hi All,
Good forum.
Have just (re-)introduced myself to the pleasures of BMW driving, having previously had an E36 325i.
Just picked up my new toy, a 1989 E30 M3 in Macao Blue. Very pleased and impressed; so far, have used it on a variety of twisties and dual carriageway, neither at particularly legal speeds it must be said (quietly).
Anyway, here's my new baby (sorry, can't get larger sized pics posted):

Not for a bit. Maybe some minor cosmetics to start with, but any major fettling might have to wait.

I went to look at the M3 and ended up looking at the Pajero Evo, that must be a fun and unusual toy.

That's interesting. I hadn't realised that 'standard' non special M3 editions were rare in Macao Blue. Makes me like it even more now.

Sold it now, but the Pajero Evo was a brilliant car. Chunky, imposing, fast, great handling, fantastic bodykit (attracted lots of attention, particularly from boy racers).
