E30 Zone

Some of you will remember the Hartge H26 touring that has been around for years and that it appeared on Ebay a few weeks back ?

well as much as I Hate tourings (only ever owned them to break ) because there was Hartge content and i am Ill...I went to have a look,
I was suprised at how tidy it was so a deal was done..

hopefully with some minimal work I will have this ready to smoke around in this summer,
you will no doubt come across it at the usual meets

here's a few pics from when it was dropped off..



Nice ! only other RHD console Dials I have come across are in Ians H27 cab




the comfort cloth simply has to go..




I quite like Auto's and the Hartge switch logic system had me wondering, this is probably what made me go to view just for a nosy...



select 1-2-3 on the BMW switchable Autobox , and this little lever allows you to tell the box when to change up or down..
quite clever really,




to be continued

Wow, not seen that kicking around for a while. I remember when the days this always seemed to be forsale.

Where's it been hiding?

I knew I should have flown up

That looks like it will clean up very nicely. Would love that for myself.

Im not a touring man but that is nice, looks in good shape. Those mirrors really let it down though

Are they hartge skirts on there or just se?

Just SE.

That is nice!!
Iv never seen that switch logic or even heard of that before!

Any engine pics dude?

Looks classy steve

Very nice.

Looks great from the outside - stripes and wheels are

Not a fan of the Hartge interior bits though - that steering wheel is terrible

This will be sick w1v leatherz , innit !

This car used to be owned by a zoner years ago, used to be a regular at the shows.

Still looks in good straight condition.

What's going on with yours?

I drove this about 10-12 years ago.

It was owned by Kevin Royle from the BMWCC. The Fagtronic bit works well enough.

Glad to see this in good hands.

that will look good on my drive Steve
