Very quiet this area. Are there any in the pipeline as the weather is getting better?
I did see the area had held a few previously.

Not much happens in Scotland meet wise these days.

There will probably be an impromptu meet at the Falkirk Wheel at some point and quite a few Scottish zoners go to Glamis each year but that's about it.

Where about in Scotland are you? I'm up in Aberdeen and I've seen more and more E30s going about so maybe we could get something set up! I'm kinda new to the forum so I've never been to one of the meets and to be honest, I wasn't even sure if there were any Scottish ones!

Craig, are you a member of ABZBMW yet. There are a couple of E30 owners on there and those guys have meets every now and then. I'm in Moray

I'm not yet no... I only had the car for a month before I took it off the road to get a heap of work done on it so I'm only just starting to really get out and about with it now. I have seen ABZBMW cars going about but I didn't realise there were E30s... at least I haven't seen any, but I will hopefully be getting along to some of their meets soon enough!

Unless I'm mistaken, there'll be no zone stand at Glamis for the first time in a long time. It's been a real PITA recent years with few signing up and even less turning up.

As above, no one will be organising it so I've joined the polishing boys this year Colin.

There seams to be much more on Facebook than on here for Scottish meets.

BMW car club Scottish region do once a month, first Sunday.
There was Scotland Beemers but seams to have disappeared.

Abz meet went well last night. 20 odd cars showed up. A mixed bag of models. Two e30's and an e28. Another e30 owner showed up but in his e36 and another fellow arrived who is in the process of rebuilding an e24 csi with his photos on an iPad. There was a 540, z3m coupe, a few e46 and more. Good banter had. Hopefully we can get more e30's to the next one.

Couple of phone pics I took

Hello guys picking up a car next week.

Looking for someone to recondition a diff (i have one that is the wrong ratio so could swap and one that is knackered recondition or part exchange for a good one) also someone to restore a tech one steering wheel.

In the medium term will need a spraypainter someone once suggested a boy in prestwick?

Hope your all well.

Paul

Gareth on here is the man to sort out your diff. As for painters, I've no recommendation. I'm selling lots of stuff right now so if you need any bits, let me know. Please note prices have increased since your last purchases,
