Hello,

I've just purchased this 325i touring, its in really nice condition and has only 84k miles.

A few small plans for her including a scorpion exhaust, lowered, IS front splitter in black.

Does anyone know the car?

Thanks!! :):)

Thanks!

I have a soft spot for the tourings, my dad had a grey E30 325i touring when I was a kid, it had a mtec kit and leather. It was on a G plate.

I've been away from E30's for about 2 years but I was looking for a daily driver thats not to expensive and I thought, what better than a 325i touring.

I've got a LSD and 325i box in my garage aswell so that will be something else thats getting done.

Yeah thats one of the first things I'm going to do, they look gash.

It literally has no rust!

I'm only 21 but I've had 2 325i tech2's and a tech1 which was the best car I've ever owned!

I'm in Balmedie, is that your tech2 touring?
I would love to put the tech2 kit on mines but they seem to be like hens teeth for the tourings.

Is there E30 meets up here?

Aye,

The touring is my baby !! There are a few zoners in Aberdeenshire. Bad Dave, Nickso and Mummyboo to name a few. I'm in Caithness but hail from Inverurie originally. We're looking to have an Inverness meet soon, so here's hoping..

A' the best

Ah cool, I used to work in Inverurie in Phoenix.

Is that not south west?

Yeah must be the same guy, he told me the same thing. Not sure about the seal I will have to investigate that.

Thats really nice, I would really like to put a mtech kit on mines.

Anyone have one forsale? :)

Very nice! Strangley I think the orange indicators look alright on your touring as it breaks up the silver a little.

the guy told me that the seal betewwne the door and the window bottom was in need of repair as it was damaged by someone trying to break in. also mentioned somat about it needing a new drivers door lock. not too bad a job to do, but i went to the kitted one as i think it looks meaner. i dont mean to sound like you bought a pup, but i went for the easier one (distance as well as less jobs needing to be done).

Yeah he told me about the lock, I asked him about the seal and he said he'd already sorted it so thats one less thing to do. Thanks, Stephen

To the OP, car looks good, I reccomend replacing the comfort seats with some sports versions, they feel so much better

Doesn't look like I'm going to enjoy it now. It was "supposed" to be getting delivered to Glasgow. I payed the fuel and train tickets for him to get back.

I have left a deposit and paid my train down and his train home. Now his mobile is switched off and his house phones of the hook.

Total Dodger!!!
