Hi all, nice to join the E30 club!
I was just wondering if anyone daily's their E30, and if so, is this any good for the cars? In terms of rusting when driving in all weathers.

I use mine every day,I suppose if you leave it in a heated garage through the winter it will last longer but why not use it and enjoy it.

Very nice and welcome, I use mine most days and no garage which breaks my heart , but the pleasure driving her outweighs the desire to store her away.
Lovely looking car you have there mate, ....I hope to drive mine more over christmas now a few vitals like the starter is fixed and I have new eyes in her.

Thanks all
.I have managed to fix a slight leak on the left hand front corner of the soft top now with a bit of silicone (not ideal) but does the trick. So could drive it all year round.
I'm thinking of getting a cheap daily to preserve the e30.

AND post facelift. Even better!
i put mine on classic car insurance which doesn't use your previously built up ncb, this lets me use my ncb on a daily driver which i use through the winter , salt/grit ruins cars .

Yes I don't want to ruin it through the winter. I daily a Z4 at the minute but looking for something more practical. Classic insurance is not so cheap for me as I'm only 22, multi policy is the cheapest I have found for myself.
