[fulllocke30]

as the title says whats a mint and i mean mint 2 door shell with no sunroof worth,it was a 318 model complete with doors,bonnet,and boot

[ImysE30]

Packet of Walkers crisps and a mars bar?














Just joking, could be worth anything without pics and a bit more details

[Dezzy]

As above pics required. Sort after though if near rust free.

[fulllocke30]

hi oh ok i thought someone could give me a rough price as i havnt got pics as it aint my car yet,the car has never been welded and is as clean as the exterior everywhere i dont see why pics are requiered,its a bare e30 shell which is totally rust free,pics wouldnt do it justice

[eko]

????????? i wish

[fulllocke30]

ohh its a 1986 model

[eko]

So what price was you thinking then??

[ImysE30]

If it was a 325 shell, then it would probably be worth a little bit more

[eko]

If it was a 325 shell, then it would probably be worth a little bit more

why?

[e30cossie]

Is it a rolling shell ?
Does a 86 car have small back lights ?
Where is the car located ?

[12345kevin]

Color ? Location ?

How "bare" is the shell, can you arrange delivery ?

PM an idea of the price you are looking for, could be what i'm looking for

[DanThe]

If it was a 325 shell, then it would probably be worth a little bit more

why?

because you can bolt 325 parts to it?

[fulllocke30]

hi yes its the small back light model,its not my car its one which is forsale by me,i can buy it complete or as a shell,1500 complete or 1000 as shell

Good luck with the sale

[DanThe]

1500 complete or 1000 as shell

Thats a VERY expensive 318

[Ollie_bwoii]

What colour is it? Where abouts is it?

[MarkT]

I've just paid. 150 for a very tidy, near mint rolling shell sans sunroof!

[fulllocke30]

eko its not my car,as for exspensive i dont have time or the money to pay someone to patch,weld or put new panels etc on a dog e30,sh*t e30s are 3-650 then needs loads to make them even tidy as with this its all original panels,paint,never welded just needs a nice block etc to put in her

[ImysE30]

If it was a 325 shell, then it would probably be worth a little bit more

why?

because you can bolt 325 parts to it?

Because it would have a better suspension set-up?

[DanThe]

Its too expensive IMO, you can get a much better deal buying a lowly 4 pot model complete

mint taxed and tested non-sunroof 2 door's with a banjo'd m40, make little more than £300, £1k is a bit optimistic

[Dezzy]

Wow it's worth Half that. I have just bought a completely mint no rust chromie with 1 years mot and 7 months rent for £700. White 2door. It has a sunroof though and needed de chaving but gives you an idea.

Just keep your eyes open and don't get a pan handle for the first clean very excpensive car that comes along mate

[Ollie_bwoii]

The question is, if its so clean why is the owner stripping it to a bare shell?

If it was pretty much minty mint and complete, I can't see why I wouldn't pay £1500 for it.

[fulllocke30]

hi ollie the chap thats got it bought it to play with on a weekend but has since bought a IS instead..
as for stripping i said i was looking for just a rolling shell really so i could put a nice engine and block in etc and play with it,and he said he would strip it for me

[Bob_S]

A bag of sand? I think he's a heroine addict and needs to feed it with a tag like that. Scrap isn't exactly on the up at the moment!

tag ?????

[e30topless]

if it is mint i would be suprised !

it's amazing how many describe theirs as mint when they don't know where to look,
I spent 6-7 weeks trawling coast to coast every evening finding one with ZERO rust

I payed over a grand for one with zero rust, and it was worth every penny

Not mint then??

Just incase you are confused as to what 'mint' actually refers to: Mint Condition

[Dezzy]

A car that has had paint isn't origonal. If it's not as it left the factory it isn't mint IMO

[R4N_S_S]

i sold my mint 1991 2dr 318i complete for £300.

Although the engine had seen better days - the shell was spot on
