I’m new to the group and just thought I’d share my one and only true love...!!!
I have a 1990 (G) BMW 325i Sport that I’m hoping to get back on the road after being stored away for the past 13 years!
I bought the car back in 1998 and it was just an incredible car but unfortunately it died around 2007! It was always going to be one of those “one day jobs” but I never got round to it.... I think it’s about time!
The main issue was the head gasket but the car was starting to show it’s age quite a bit so would no doubt need other work carried out to the engine and rest of the vehicle? It was used as a daily driver so had a fair bit of use as well as the typical problems like water in the passenger foot well and boot and the usual rust in places!
I’ve been tinkering around with it over the past month replacing a few electrical and other bits but I’m hoping to book it in to a local BMW restoration specialist for an appraisal to get the engine running again along with what else may need doing to pass an MOT again! I would love to give it a full nut and bolt restoration but I just don’t think my pockets are deep enough but hoping to get it back to a good standard and last for many more miles.
I can’t wait to get behind the wheel again, it’s a special car to me, I could never sell it.
