E30 Zone

I've only ever seen these 2 items on 1 Bmw I've had.

Were they optional extras and exactly how rare are they?

i know the rear blind was an optional extra but not sure if the fire extinguiser is

not that rare they pop up on ebay all the time.

Ive had a few of both the above,not that rare IMO.

got a blind in my 316

tell you what is a rare, iS Beige Check, now try find that. wonder who has that

did you see that gen. e30 petrol can that fits in the middle of the spare wheel......... was one on ebayus few months ago £80 odd quid i think it went for. think it was a chappie off here flogging it.
btw..... i wouldnt buy a 20 year old fire extinguisher and expect it to still extinguish fire!

Ive got a fire extinguisher on my 1991 325i!

Luckly I havent had to use it yet....... and i have a feeling it may be past its put out a fire by date......

So all these were just options from new?

ive got the rear blind, fire extinguisher and the petrol can that sits in the middle of the spare wheel

Spadge had one of those, don't know if its the one your talking about though.

yes. you ticked little boxes filling in your form at the stealers when buying it new. then paid more money for the odds and ends you ticked.

Fire extingisher could be recharged like others surely? Blinds are not that rare but ones with no speaker holes or original speaker holes are getting thin on the ground, alot have been butchered to fit bigger speakers.

I have an Alpina long range aluminium fuel tank btw, now that is rare. Never seen beige is check before though appart from 1an's.
The brown sport cloth seats that were in a gold 4 door with alpina parts that was for sale must be prtty rare to, never seen brown cloth sport seats.

Aluminium fuel tank first ive ever heard of that before.

my blind had the original speaker grills in it aswell when i bought it.

It goes in the boot between the strut towers, take the total fuel capacity to about 100ltrs iirc. My blind shelf also has original speaker holes but it took a while to find one that wasn't fubared. I now have a spare with no speaker holes but its a bit faded.

yes he did, sold it me. Lied about its condition though, he said it was mint and it was actually completely brand new, damn traders!!

saw your interior in PBMW 1an, nice

speaking of the se bootlid cover, anyone know how to get one off without damage? as the illustrious march109 is havin mine in the next couple of days.

Regarding the fire extinguishers i made a comment on a post about the genuine bmw update that is available for the e30.

I am using it on my car.

Brand new bmw e30 fire extinguisher but you must have the old brackets as you need one part of it to join the new parts to.

if anyone wants pics just ask

And a 3rd.

I have a fire extingisher that I bought off a fellow Zoner. By blind do you meant the ones on the saloons? I have dog guard/load cover that I believe is rare and tweeter pod for the mirrors, also cloth sport seats are pretty rare. So pretty much I couldn't replicate my car if it was stolen written off

I didn't expect the one I bought to still work I just wanted it . I bought new one that I put in the boot. But once recharged I don't see why the BMW one shouldn't work if required.
