And she is now shiny! Couple hours of TLC on a sunday afternoon and here are the results!
Gotta love the chrome!

Your effort was worth it, She look's very nice
I reckon the ride height is practical for down ere, Bit's keep dropping off Delphin from driving too fast down bumpy lanes
Is that an Alpina lip?

I'm near to St Austell ( Car forever covered in Clay dust

)
Nice to see another E30 that's around Cornwall on the zone, There are a lot down here, Quite surprising with the salt air and I couldn't find one to buy in all the months I was looking but they haven't made it onto the zone yet.

Ha! The salt air down here/there is a complete pain! My car has been down here all her life and surprised its got a comparitivly little rust on it!
I can imagine that clay dust is complete pain, its no surprise tho, some operation going on down there!
Need to see if we can find some more members from down here.
Ciao

Pink E30s can always be saved
jaymo, the chrome rules

too right!!
Its very satisfying to get the pink back to red!! There always seems to be a bit on the car that turns back to pink quicker tho! Its the strip on the boot lid just below the boot spoiler! Red to pink in a few weeks!!!

Looking good jaymo, cleans up nicely
I know what you mean about being low, i have trouble with mine sometimes but you 2 are full on country bumbkins

so need 4x4's
Needs a good spit and polish so me and my mate are gonna go to work on it, he's got Ԛ£90 worth of zymol lying around

country bumpkins aint the word mate!! Im waiting for civilisation to arrive down here! Some of the Lanes around here are great but cant take advantage of them because of the Tourists in the summer and the Ice in the winter!!
It goes back to Red with Plenty of elbow grease, some Autoglym car shampoo, car polish and some Meguirs Gold Wax! Im upset I dont have a proper place and facilities to clean it when im in Cornwall!
Where abouts are you Adam318i? Car is looking great BTW!
