For years I've walked past and admired a white E30 coupe just 2 streets away from me! I finally decided it was time to drop a note on the windscreen asking if they'd ever sell call me.
A week passed by and I'd not heard a thing so had given up hope. Then out of the blue, I received a phone call from the owner! He'd been thinking of selling as he and his wife didn't need 2 cars any more. Turns out he was the second owner, he'd owned it 13 years the same as the original owner!
Result! Went to see it, few issues that need sorting, unloved paintwork. But the bonus was, on the whole it's rust free! Some surface rusting on patches of bodywork but arches seem ok, as does engine bay, floor pan and sills. The lower section of the battery box in the boot needs repairing due to rot.
It's a facelift, poverty spec, no sunroof, non PAS, carbed 316! Paintwork had plenty of green slime and stains. And was totally flat, no reflections. Nothing.
That's enough for one post, here's some pics!

You've transformed that car nicely!
