Just been for a quick schnifter at Dave's new toy. After a bit of searching for an unmolested example that won't be a liability, he came across this 1995 M3 3ltr in Avus Blue. Looks quite a peach and is very clean & original. Sorry the pics are not very adventurous as we were a bit short on time.

Anyway, seing as this is an E30 forum, I'll start with a pic of his old cab. Those wheels are still for sale by the way :wink:

and neither are the amber indicators.

Is it a reshell?
Carefully check the arches against another M3 and a standard e36. M3 arches are wider. Also have a damn good look at the paperwork.
If it isn't genuine, get him to give it to me!

Are the old cabby pics at Preston Park?

you'll have to ask Dave about the specifics you lot have mentioned as he's the one who bought the car, but I think Dave has enough grey matter to know how to spot an original car and not some reshelled parts bin.

Johnna - the pic of the E30 was taken at Temple Newsam in Leeds, but I know Preston Park well, used to manage to drive my mini onto the crazy golf course at night :evil:

U know Stockton well then?

It's genuine! the early M3's had amber lights....

As far as i am aware there is no difference between any of the arches on a e36.... M3 or not. My old E36 M3 Evo front wings were the same as any other e36.....

looks original to me, thats what all the M3's in SA look like, the clear lights are aftermarket over here.and those wheels a proper M3.
