Blimey Charlie!!! Not bad considering you paid not more than a bag of wotsits and a can of tango for it not so long ago!

Nice one mate!

i just could not say no the car will be , never forgotten. he is a proper e30 entusiast, he also had the car verified by sytner as a genuine c2 conversion, it was the a bmw gb directors car, and no expense was spared , ie all the extras, i know i sold out a bit but 6.5k is alot of money for a little that it cost me , i mentioned the zone to him, i think the car will be appearing back on the zone . sad day but i will allways have an e30 of some sort cheers mate.

i had loads of intrest in the car, i did not even try to sell it but when they knew how rare the car was the offer just kept coming in, he told me he felt like crying as he desperatley wanted it at any cost. at least it is going to a proper owner.

That's a lot of money for a car that needs a full body restoration, and missing a lot of alpina parts!

Take the money and run....fast!
