E30 Zone

Hello all E30 peeps!

First post of the mark - loving the look of most if not all the BM's here. My mk1 Golf is on the way out and I'm getting pulled towards an 325i E30 M-Tech Tourer and if all goes well will collect on Friday.

Only downside is she's an auto which I'm not so sure about - if anyone feels the need to fire some info my way or direct me towards a buyers guide I'd appreicate it.

Welcome to the zone mate,good luck with the prospective purchase!
Is the LSD fooked then?If so itll only cost you around £250 for a decent replacement anyway.

Might have a 3.91 lsd coming on the market in the near future
Here's hoping that it's OK though

Well...

I picked up the E30 earlier today and so far I'm pretty impressed
I'll get some pics taken and see what you lot think once its been given a good clean and a couple of small tweeks have been made!

Welcome Rich,

Nice choice, auto touring isn't so bad.
I loved my Mk2 golf.

Cheers Gareth.
