Hello all,

I've owned my e30 getting on 6 years, it's a 325i Sport Mtech1, manual coupe in Dolphin Grey.

It's been in storage for three years, and today I got her out, to prepare to sell...

But on seeing her again I just don't think I can do it. Too many memories. Wedding day, driving to Germany with mates.

I'm wondering if anyone might recommend a garage for a recommissioning? Both bodywork and mechanical is needed. I'm in Herts but open to location.

Thanks for reading if you got this far.

Cheers!

Hi there, lovely car you have and would be a shame to sell, especially as prices are on the rise. I would definitely recommend BMR performance for any major work, but what actually needs doing? I'm sure theres a lot you could do yourself to get it reliable again. A cambelt and full service are easily possible on the driveway.

I wouldn’t sell that for love or money,I’ll second BMR,I’ve never used them but we all know the high standards Barry has with his own cars and he also with his customers cars.
