all plans are on hold at the minuteas im at university and the car is at home but come the summer, plan is fix all the little bits and bobs, lower it a bit. im thinking 40/40 at the minuet as i think im correct in saying that i will only need new spring were as for a 60mm drop new shocks are needed as well. and mabe some alpina wheels (replica ) but first it just needs a good clean.

good effort on the pics dude [took me a while],what engine has it got?


i'm breaking an e30 not that far away if you need owt for yours.

if you take pics from a camera or better phone they blow up when you click on them.

is that lazer blue..........pop the bonnet and look on the pass side suspension turret and there you'll find a sticker telling you the colour.

welcome to the deep end 8)

I do need a few bits and bobs so when I’m back up north i will have to give you a call, that if you haven’t sold every thing by then.

I used image shack for the photos and I resized them on that so it didn’t take 3 hours for the page to load but maybe a bit to small.

It is black but its that black which is sort of grey when u get close up. I will get some one to have a look and find out the exact colour. Its only a 1.8 Mr insurance said I couldn’t have the other two pots as I’m only 19 :x ,

Er there is a big window with a load of engines but they are mostly car ones, there is a huge plane behind them if that helps but I have never seen a E30 outside.

Got bake home late last night but couldn’t resist going for a quick drive, i love it.
When i was buying the car the storage pods in the boot stuck shut so couldn’t really see in. However got into them today and found some goodies :D , there was the original tool kit and the warning triangle. Triangle has 1 completely snapped reflector and a small tear in the material part but the tool fit is great. Going out later to give it a good wash so will post some pictures late.
