Due to an injury I am not able to fix my car, and also financially can't afford to atm. So it's up for sale. I'm gutted, but hopefully will be back in the E30 fold before long......if it sells! If it does, I might be looking for another one in a few months time, but atm my hands don't work, so I'm screwed.
This is the best car I've ever owned, but 'I'll be back'

Hi Fuzzy....nerve damage in the left as result of accident so 70% loss of use in that one which caused me to over-use the other one which has now started to go dead as well for some reason. Going in for nerve conduction study on the right hand as I have now lost little and ring finger sensation. My Mother has the same problem, both hers are in splints. :roll:

^^^^^Ha ha ha, Feels like someone else is doing it, though with no sense of pressure, it could add new meaning to the term ' Jerk off'! :eek:

I had to undergo one of those nerve conductivity thingys whilst recovering from a badly broken right wrist.Sorry to say but it was the most painfull experience I have ever had!! After an hour or more of electric shocks on my damaged arm,the pesky doctor wanted to start on the good one.....'for comparision'....FFS!! I still have a grip issue with my right hand,not helped by being lefthanded,which lets me leave nuts and bolts loose that are fastened with my right hand,it is often a ral struggle to lie under the car in such a postion that it is possible to tighten fasteners lefthanded.The last one I left loose was the rear L/H lower damper mounting..I traced the knock, knock,eventualy..good luck with your injury,I wish you well. :D
