What do we think, just caught me eye as always

Not sure on the colour combo working like it can on other cars?

Are the red dash and door cards leather or plastic? I like them both, been looking at these since Simon got his touring, quite tempted.

Looks sweet enough. If it's a nice one with good arches and no issues, it almost seems cheap and certainly worth an extra bag over a 328i Sport.

I think the engine would fit rather neatly under the bonnet of my E30! Probably too nice to frag though.

that black one has a facelift nose cone, could be nothing but its a pre facelift car. I'd be chacking it over properly

The manual one is down to under 4k now, might be 3500.

its at a better price now(the right price i would say) but i guess really needs to be seen/driven to see what sort of life its had.

Can't hurt to have a look/test drive can it? Theres worse ways to spend a saturday.

It won't be rotton like an E30 can be, the mechanicals can be fixed easily and pretty cheap if it needs some work. Which it will. Biggest problem is if its a funky interior and its tatty. They love an interior rattle does an E36
