It would be easier to list those that I don't miss, but Stevie BMW was good entertainment, and E30beemerlad was a good guy, had a lot of dealings with him.

Eko from Devon.

And many from Scotland as the E30Members stopped attend shows on mass. Some are still floating about but the more recent e30scotland Facebook page is great.

Yes, Pony was one I wouldn't tire of seeing punched in the face. What a weapon he was.

Remember when he was caught drunk in his car I think parked up the wrong way down a one way street as he "moved" his car?

Cough, the note on the screen was a brilliant thread, where are these as they should be in Zone Gold.......

Me neither, arrived on here while deciding what to do with an E30 I had parked up before the interweb got going. Reading back through some of the old threads has been informative and a laugh to boot.

It is just a shame the links to threads couldn't be carried through the Zone upgrade as you can't always get the whole story.

Looks like I missed quite a bit for the years I was driving an E36 winkeye

Stevie was harmless, just a bit dim. Didn't the zone club together to buy his car and blow it up, or something like that?

Definitely special, I went and fitted his springs for him just for the fact I thought this kid is gonna kill himself, he had that red 318i with a rocker cover hand painted in Dulux white and saying he wanted to get a perspex bonnet so people could see in :D I would have cut the bonnet cable so nobody could ever see it :D

Didn't he also fit a rear arch repair so badly that the petrol flap didn't line up with the filler neck?

Been to his house a couple of times. The work he did on E30s was incredible, considering the limited facilities he had at his place. Even his drive was about 1 in 3 steep.

After all these years I will admit and put my hands up to placing a note on Pony's Sport windscreen pretending to be a disgruntled woman from Chiswick berating for him wheel spinning and for being a knob or something along those lines........

He did go off on a rant I believe and it was a comedy classic thread........

I wouldn’t say I ‘miss’ anyone but been a few times I could’ve used the Zone to sort some technical agg.

Forgot how many annoying tools were in here let’s FUCKING GO.
