Is it a sport or just a se

[Simon13]

poor car but hey ho

[JOHN21]

its a se ,only got it for drifting so it not a show and shiner got my fiesta turbo for that

[SteSE]

Doubt it's a sport mate, but i think it looks nice enough.

Having fun is the main thing though and i'm sure you'll have fun in it. How much did you pay for it John?

[Sanchez]

Is it a sport or just a se

if it were a sport it would have a body kit.

[SteSE]

SE's are better anyway

Not all sports come with factory fitted bodykit, some come without it

[Sanchez]

ALL sports be they tech 1 or tech 2 had an mtechnic body kit from the factory.

[JOHN21]

no it is a se as it states on the log book dont plan to do much more with it really lowerd it and welded the diff that will do for me for drifting ,im not going the full lot into drifting stickers and zip ties and it looking like a scrap car on the road like some lol

ill keep it as it is,its just for a bit of fun i could go and enter the EDC and all that but im not really that botherd tbh ,just fun and maybe a few track days for a mess about woundnt mind going to that lydd? down south

not going do the m30 route what ever that is ? 3.5 engine i guess ?lol

[bss325i]

.....shes is a brill runner with loads odf history....

Looks and sounds like a nice unmolested early 325i, becoming a rare thing now.

Shame your going to f*ck it.

Couldn't you have bought a plastic bumper fourdoor?!

I wouldn't put money on that fella

Is this the car that was for sale on ebay recently ( telford way IIRC ? )

Looks clean and straight - at first I was quite horrified at your plans for it but if its the car I'm thinking of from memory it has already been modified ( started life as a 320i ) so its hardly like you're trashing an original car.

Still......as Simon13 said.......poor car......

[SteSE]

M30 is the larger 3.5 engine

2.5 will be fine, maybe invest in a plug and play chip from Ant or Speedtouch and save the rest for tyres, suspension components and clutchs

[JOHN21]

yes it was from telford ,may mate said that 325s had certain things and this dont and he said it maybe a 320 or 318 im not fussed tbh it goes well and looks ok for an old car

[Eddie25]

I'm with BSS325i it's a shame to see a nice old chromey meet that fate but each to their own.

[JOHN21]

i could of got a four door yes but 3drs are better

if people are that bothered about what im doing with it ,get ur cash out and come and save it before i take it on track lol like ive said if i wanted a mint 325sport or e30 m3 i would of gone a got 1 ,but i dont i wanted a ok ish looking 1 that could take some stick ,i know its a shame but cars dont last forever

anyway not here to give off a bad vibe just joined the site to say hi and talk about e30s that were all into

john

Fair enough. Appologies for the blunt response.

[JOHN21]

no worries pal

[zaust]

Just enjoy it. Sell the rst and get a sport for looking good.

At the end of the day if you do reck it, it will just help push the prices up on them any way...

[JOHN21]

Sorry to be pedantic, but that's a 2 door, not a 3 door.

Correct. Only a handfull of 3 door E30s were ever made.

[powelly]

Correct. Only a handfull of 3 door E30s were ever made.

I never knew that, do you mean three as in a proper tailgate??? or just a touring with no rear doors!!!!

Also before anyone says it's not a coupe either, it's a 2 door saloon!!!!
