Τhe stupid law of Greece about cars non EURO4 an onwards. Simply you pay considerably low amount of money for an e46 but a fortune for an e30. "its old" they say....
Simply to register this vehicle in greece i had to pay about 350% of its estimated value!! Dont think it worth it.
I will only pay this money for an M3EVO....not for a 325i. But still my heart was breaking....!!

That's crazy! It's a law that suits the rich Athenians I suppose. Greece - birthplace of democracy (which translates to mean 'what the people want') - obviously does not escape the laws that spoil fun :?
