you have a very very nice looking car

may I recommend OE Hartge 16" wheels; I alternate between these and OE BMW BBS 15" cross-spokes and they do not seem to detract from the handling of the car at all.

sorry the pic is so small

I use the Hartges in winter... much easier to clean :D

Good looking car, reminds me of another one...:P Keep it up looks clean! :cool:

Keep the wheels as well, they look brilliant. You cant beat BBS.

not sure if you can buy them new anymore, but Birds are the UK distributor for Hartge.

www.birdsauto.com - new Hartge centre caps are cheap from Birds too.

the wheels come up occasionally on Ebay - I've seen three sets and bought one set.

But do keep the BBS - they are simply the best.

Good luck

(oh mine's a 325 - here's a slightly better/bigger picture)

Rubbish :pff:

Just messing :)......the condition of that car really is stunning though, especially considering its mileage.

Mine's only got a few thousand more on it and in comparison it's a bit embarrassing to say the least :oops:

Keep up the good work, and do keep it out of storage :thumb:

Hi there

That has got to be the newest looking E30 I have seen for a long time.

I can understand why you cherish it the way you do. The condition just belies it mileage.

Credit to you for keeping up the hard work.

wow my sport has done 100k less and does not look as clean as this!

Whats all this rubbish about bbs wheels being the best?

alpina 16's all the way

nothing beats them for elegance in my opinion!
