I bought my first E30 in November 1994. It was a metallic maroon (Burgundrot) 323i on the Y plate with bottlecaps, LSD and sports seats. It was £600 and the head was cracked but that was very cheap for an E30.
I used it for a while and although it ran very hot it went and went and went.

The cheapest E30 I had was free, the most expensive about £12'000 for a Sport Evo.

R15 000 South African for a 1987 chrome bumper 4 door 316 carb. That was my first E30, though I had four e21/e28's before that. First ever BMW was 1982 2.0L 518 (twin Stromberg) automatic that was so slow it got bug-splat on the rear window. Cheapest....free.

Similar to my first £800 one! That was supposed to have had a cracked head, but it turned out that the head gasket had been changed by an idiot.
Ran it for two years (until i had a drive in a 325!) and sold it for £1700.

i paid £3500 for a 2 door diamondswartz 320i with only electric windows and nowt else
was eight years ago though, thought it looked great on 17" hockenheim replicas

my second was a £500 tech 2 sport which is the one in my sig pic.

i paid 2700 for my 325i eight or nine years ago, its now morphed into a hartge wannabee

Wonder if there are any Y plate 323i's left, I know mine was starting to rot in funny places back in 94 and must be long gone now!

I paid £1200 for my touring, spent twice that on her in the two and a half years I had her, sold her for less than half that, and now she might end up being a van???
