If only the yuppie who bought it new in '84 could see it now - he'd also wonder why his led carphone wasn't working. sweet ride muscle man.

I actually dislike chromies but that car has really changed my mind....in my previous post I mentioned about the colour and the wheels setting it off but its actually the chrome.

As I've said a thousand times before..... it looks SUPERB :cool: :cool:

Not sure if the new wheels improve the look tbh but they definitely don't detract from it.

One of the best cars on the zone IMO. Non-standard wheels not usually my thing but that looks superb :cool:

Regarding the wheels, I really wanted a change from the BBS's and wanted a slight dish, the wheels do suit the car imho and Falkster is right, the do work really well with the chrome. The car got some looks on the BBS's but now it seems to turn a lot more heads. Thanks for the kind comments guys :D

You know what? I never liked chromies, but I reckon this is my favourite E30 on the zone! As others have said: the stance, the colour, those wheels and, dare I let myself say it.... ....the chrome!! It all works well and makes for a gorgeous-looking car. :D

Your car is stunning, but I am not a fan of those Lenso's.. They let it down as they are fake replica splits..

However, I would like to say again, the rest is stunning :cool:

Beautiful car - just found this! Love the colour as I think it matches the chrome perfectly! The wheels are stunning on the car!

Thanks for the bump, like yourself had to see pics of the car. Just didn't have time to search yet.

Lovely car! Stance, wheels, spoilerless boot lid :thumb:

Cheers mate, Rs's are too strong money for me, could buy another half decent e30 for the price of them with tyres.
