I've joined the 24v club with this barge

For being horrible to everyday, got it for £850, 149 on the clock. Original nikasil donk, runs sweet as a nut. Aircon is ice cold, and the leather interior is very good. Even has adjustible steering column!
Short Mot and a cracked windscreen, so i've got a week to sort this out, goes well!
Good car with some minor fettling me thinks

Looks like a good base car - my E36 Touring is one of the best cars I've had - I do wish I had held out for a 328i now though.
No ASC but you might be lucky and find it has an LSD

no chance of that with the slipper. I'm not bothered about ASC, just gets you stuck when it snows! M50 inlet and M20 flywheel/clutch me thinks to liven it up, after driving Kos' compact i like it alot.

Looks well optioned up anyway - even got park distance control and headlamp washers
Mines got ASC but I haven't used it in the snow yet - just have to switch it off I guess

Looks okay that for 8 and a half hundred quid. Can't go wrong can you?
It'll look lovely with a load of buckets, trowels and levels in the boot and a load of Red Bull / sandwich wrappers in the footwells. Much more like 13's car

dips, stop it !!
we know you have all the nice extras for these cars
Mr13's new car is nice and presentable for a bricky. with a few trick peices it will be hoot to drive nad haul all his wokr gear.
mate, get an e36 M3 3 litre LSD mate. its drops the gearing down to make it bit more zippy and will allow that turd to still pull 150mph

E36s are gay. Even though I turned up to No Rice in one.
What's with the betrayal of the E30 clan then? Daily work shitter?

E36 aren't gay! Much nicer softer car for everyday use, its time to grow up a little!

as clean as an e30 is, i dont want one as daily drive thats why i've been driving e36's for over a year now
the reason i switched, well i wanted climate control. i want one touch electric windows and switches that are not stiff, i want a smoother drive and better fuel economy and a car thats viewed as modern, not just "a clean old bm"
