i only have these two fairly uninteresting pics of my 320i but you get the idea 8)

the spot lights will be coming off but they do work lol

i am new to this beemer seen even though i have always had a soft spot for an e30 size beemer (or old shape M6) due to being a rather large ford fan owning over 35 different fords

the car is fairly solid and almost filler free which for a car this ages is quite impressive, overall it just needs a fucking good clean inside and out and a new drivers seat would see it right lol, the plans are just to use it as my daily runner to work ect and i will sell her in the new year as this 320i power just aint impressing me one bit so i`ll have my eyes open for a 2dr 325i sport (maybe even i cab)

btw heres my other toy

Great looking saph! Crystal blue isn't it? I am a ford lover too and have many different fords. Just got these two E30's now but recently sold a fiesta rs turbo. :cool:
As what jbh said, if the shell is good the an engine swap is simple and relativly cheap unless its a more desirable E30 like the ones you mentioned that your really after? winkeye E30's can be addictive!

Hi guys yes my sapph is crystal blue which is fords best colour for them 8)

i really love my beemer and on monday i took her to brands hatch and back and done 340 miles with out fault and didnt even use as much fuel as i thought i would.

as for rust it has several scabs in places and has had welding on the siils front and rear but the chassis is solid as and the only real shitter is one rear arch is dead and behind the drivers side rear wheel it rusted badly into that back area, i wll try and sort all these issues out bu to be honest i bought it cheap and it really was only bought to drive over the winter but i have fallen for it a bit so i may fix it up and keep her going but i will 100% have another e30 if this one does die.
