after much thought ive decided to sell my 316i why?
the petrol tank has decided to disetergrate mot is due soon dont think it will get through looking underneth the roll bar bushes are pretty worn plus one or two other niggles
its been great owning an e30 its been totaly realiable,but ive got to be sensible and use my head not my heart
ive seen a 318is e36 so think i'll give that a look at .
thanks to all who have helped me in the past.
good bye dear friend

Sorry to hear that, mate. I like the E36 318is though, so sure you'll be happy with one. It's always good to have a change now and then

Hang on here. e30 316i (thats a 316i) in favour of an e36 318is? If it was a 325i e30 I might ague the case for an e30 but an e36is is a far better bet than a 316i e30 I'd say.

Should have changed for an E30 with some more guts.
The E36 is crap.

Anyone who knows of an S50 B32/B30 E30 for sale, please let me know.
You'll be back - I made the mistake and got a 325 E36, fast, comfy but boring as hell and while I was driving it I spotted loads of E30's so sold it and got one
(and the missus understood
)
Now got an E34 which was my first love really (I'm so sad) lots of similar bits to the E30 but still it.
Don't miss the MPG tho
I don't like E36's, never have but they are a good car - so is a Vectra or Mondeo

Previously owned loads of old E30s, E34s, a few E36s, E32s, E39s and an E38.
Currently in a diesel Audi - miss me old E30's....

I always say each to their own one mans meat is another mans poison drove it today for the first time ita a different beast.
wether or not ive made the wrong decision i dont know what i do know is the leaky petrol tank is not my problem any more buit the insurance on the 318is is
funny as it seems didnt see many e30,s driving the old car but on the way home in the new one i saw loads and they wernt the same ones i normally see either is this an omen i wonder good or bad me thinks i hear burgess mederith (twiglight zone titles speaking).
