Hi guys...

I am new to this forum, and though driving an E21 and being danish I hope I'm still welcome :D
Love your great taste in Great Britian! All your E30´s are so well maintained and classy styling!

I am the proud owner of a fjordblau 1978 E21 323i. The car has the 2,5 171hp M20 engine from the E30 325i, so it's a great runner.
Further more it has adjustable Koni suspenion, 60/40mm lowering from Ventura, sportseats, BMW M1 steering wheel, 15" BBS RS070, Alpina front spoiler and markings, VDO oil temp and pressure gages.... and much moore :-D.

It is a great driver and I love it very much winkeye

I'm not completely unknown to the E30; Untill last month I allso drove a 1990 325i... Great car, but unfortunatly sold :cry:
Image

And before that I had an E28 535i

I look foreward to check out all your great projects etc. 8)

Wow what a transformation! Well done, i love those shark noses :drool:

Off topic but i don't suppose you can tell me what the new style 11 digit BMW part number is for your washer bottle? I want to buy a new one but BMW cannot identify it using the old 7 digit part number on my unit. Cheers :D

Nope, sorry. But your local BMW parts pusher should be able to find it from your VIN number.
Or you could try to locate it in the spare parts catalog on www.bmwfans.info

Ah the thing is its going on an E30 Hartge H28 - They used an E21 washer bottle in the conversion so anything 323i related in the engine bay is most certain MIA, like the washer bottle.

Stunning car that no doubt. Rasmus and me have been many places in that car. We even done 2 BMW club DK trips in it into Germany. It's quite funny how much attention that car get's. When driving on the Autobahn people passing sit eagerly showing their Thumbs up.

And if we're at a Reststelle or the Ring for that matter we often find some 50 year old German having trouble keeping he's saliva in his mouth with that look of being 30 years back in time mentally on his face, stairing at it.

It is certainly an eye catcher and it also sounds fantastic, but Rasmus doesn't know that because he hasn't heard it from the outside. :D
