E30 Zone

just bought a e30 320ise of a old guy near me hes had it for years and had plobs with his back so stop driving and just left it on his drive so went around and well ended up buying it.
am the 3rd ower of it he said its never been smoked in note apart from a k/n filter as been changed. but i couldnt help noteis the bilstien and that it as the mtec kit in and out side.

ive took some of the kit off and its one of the better ones ive seen. ive also been founding some little bits of bubbing here and there



pick these up as well
i will post a pic aswell but my spare wheel is new with a little orange slicker onit from bmw

my rear inner wheel archers are mint they had some rust but i just wire brush it and then resealed them and i will wax them up and i will do under the car as up onces ive clean it up and resparyed it.

am in need of a compete mtec2 front bumper and rear towing covers in any condition as some1 rob my ones when the guy had it on his front, am also having a alam fitted this week so think its being delocked as well.and as anyone delocked there boot .as one got any pictures of it done.

get some tan leathers or have yours retrimmed it would look wicked with a new coat of paint

i wana get some leathers out of a cab i would like to go black but i think tan leather would be diffent. cant wait untill i get it painted am hoping the body work will be done for next week if i can get a mtec2 front bumper that is.

leather out of a cab won't fit except for the front seats, looks a good solid car for restoration

looks a good solid car,plus only 3 owners
but the burning question is!

How much did you get it for?
(if you dont mind me asking)

am sure ive got some pictures some where on my pc with them fitted thats wat give me the idea , i will look into now you said that tho, i didnt really want to say at frist just in case i was going to sell it but i cant see that happing now tho, i paid abot 300 pound for it,. .

lucky punk ......thats lot of bmw for 300....

Looks like a solid base for a project. Interior looks pretty good as it is - doesnt look worn at all - I would sort out the bodywork and wheels first and then upgrade the interior .......good luck finding a tan leather sport trim though. I looked for one for ages and ended up going with tan cloth - which still wasnt cheap !

fckin awesome car to put your hand on! fix it up well mate! good luck!

wow ur lucky!!!
id be happy to take the steering wheel and gear nob off ya .
that interior is real tidy, even though it's cloth.

cheers for your replys, the interior is mint apart from a little crack in my dash .but i cant cry at the price i got it for, ive prime it up today. i will flat it one day this week when am not working and get it in the work shop and paint it. i will try and get some pictures for ya.cheers

ive got it primed and flated it

i wasnt to sure on wat colour to do it i wanted it the same at frist i ended up going 2 tone. we painted a black and gold one before and i liked it so i ended up doing it candy red and silver. i will take some better pictuers tomo in the day light for ya.

Looks good

nice,i do love candy red!

Nice Job

Looking forward to some decent pics

why leave the front windscreen in and spray half the wheels,radwasher bottle and exhaust they are full of dust and shit which could blow on the paint

that looks absolutely lush .....................

looks like this is going to be smart! will be interested to see how things go on this one...!

i think all candy would look better looks good tho

hi everyone.cheers for your good comments, i couldnt do it all in candy because my brother got a e30 mtec2 candy red cab so didnt want to copy to much, as for the windscreen with it being at work i couldnt leave it inside for a couple of nites so had to put the windows back in just in case it rain or anything.as for the radwasher bottle and exhaust i just blow them off as best as i could . i was a bit pushed for time because i have to do it in and out of works jobs. but over all its turn out cleaner then i thought am just going to nib the some bits out and polish it.
