Plans:
17x7.5 aplina rims (or maybe something dishy)
coilovers
tinted front lights
full black leather
chrome trim changed to black

it'll just be nice to have a little extra power after driving a 1.2 polo for the last 4 years

dont get me wrong i love my polo but its just abit slow now and ive wanted an e30 for years so when i had the money to do it i thought it would be silly not to, i paid 1k for it with loads of history and reciepts from a friends dad, its alot tidier than all the others ive looked at in same price range :)
