Whats the worst comment you've heard about your E30?

[DanThe]

Or another youth saying "Nice motor mate, just needs a full body kit and some better wheels"

Better wheels? - it's got a mint set of 15" BSS with caps FFS!!!

He has some cheek he drives a rover 25!!!!

He has some cheek he drives a rover 25!!!!

His opinion is surely null and void in that case!!

My best mates saw my car this evening. Asked if I was a drug dealer..

[e301988325i]

My brother in law was taking the mick out my old beemers, and at 12 and 22 year old they are, I just laughed it off coming from a brand new vauxhall owner. And the last four words of that sentence sum him up!

[Hibsfan1875]

I dont care what anyone says about my car. I feel like a little boy with a new toy evrytime i drive it. I love my car and thats all that matters and ive had loads of notes under the windscreen wiper with offers from folk wanting to buy it. That just makes the boys at work even more annoyed.

[wullie325i]

drug dealers drive E38s with blacked out windows surely? Saw one last year with a 'HEROIN' number plate, something HER10N or HER101N

[e30ata]

someone left a note under the rear screen wiper,it read
BEST PRICES PAID FOR
SCRAP METAL

"Why didn't you get a proper BMW, like a 09 or something"
By a girl I was dropping home!

As I was quite near her house I stood on the brakes and asked her if she would like to walk the rest of the way home?
Even though it was always just to wind me up, she shut up ever since we carried on again to drop her home

Some mates give the jokes about it being an old BMW, calling it a kettle, worth fookall and bmws breaking down all the time (Some of them have E36 and E46s and they are always breaking down!!!) Mine only gets put off the road for "improvements" but they see it as something is after breaking and I won't admit it


Other than that mostly get all good compliments like, "lovely car", "looks good for its age", "I much prefer the look of the older BMWs", "its quick enough for a 318, has it got a 2.5 in it?" and alot of offers of "would you sell it" etc.

[sihooker]

I bought my first E30 cos a woman i was 'seeing' at the time said she liked them....turned out she was talking about the E36 and was not at all impressed with "that old thing"!

[danny_duke01]

I told my mate i was getting an E30 BM and the next week when i picked it up and turned up at his house to show him...he said "did you say it was an E30 or 30 quid??"

[gareth]

When are you gonna buy a new car? Ex wife last Saturday.

Thats why shes an ex wife

that sounds familiar! i used to get "you love that car more than you love me" comments... from my now 'ex' wife!:lol:

FAIL!!!!

[don2009]

Ive recently bought a GENUINE 325I sport in diamond sch black which is 'TOTALLY MINT' (took me months of painful searching to get it)...... Anyway my mate thought it was a £500 car, Yes £500!!! I felt like slapping him with a wet fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[robbo86]

"That shit brown wreck by the wife". Was pissed off for a while. She doesn't understand what I see in it, to which I replied that most people don't understand what I see in her either!

[TopSod]

I get mostly positive comments about mine, always makes me smile!
In particular I like it when I'm driving and it catches the eye of someone walking and i see them turn and look watching me drive away.

The one person who often wound me up about mine is now on the look out for one himself, without even going in mine or any other to my knowledge

[capri_rob]

one of my girlfriends mates called mine a "noddy car" once - which I still don't get

The other comments people have made have all been positive - one guy last Year was shocked that they put a 2.5 engine in such a "small" car ( compared to his newish 1.9 Vectra - a bus in comparison to the E30 )!

i always tell people my sports a 316 so they wont ask me to donut

[nm1]

another thing i was mucking about on the net and i typed my number plate in to see whats the value of the car. i couldnt believe it when they said £145

we value any car what a bunch of d1cks

[Dave_M3]

£145. haha, the steering wheel could nearly make that on ebay!


Thats what I like about the 318iS too is people don't know if it could do a doughnut or not as they only think an E30 can do doughuts with a LSD and only Sports came with them and nothing else apart from something supplied by a welder

[e21Jason]

I either get that's a good replica or is it real but when I tell them it's a cecotto sprayed white and converted to RHD sometimes i get the od death threat

A TT owner parked up next to me the other day as i got to work and said:

"Alright mate..are you looking to sell this?"

i said "Depends on how much your willing to...

(saw the 3.18is badge on the back)

"OH ITS ONLY A 1.8...CHEERS ANYWAY MATE!"

and drove off...its an I.S!!!!!

all ive ever got is "its clean for its age!" thank god they dont look at the inner arches

Makes me laugh when my DAD (the owner of two E30s) says "its just a waste of money" havent told him about the Engine conversion i have planned yet

[Royalratch]

Nothing but good for me and I live in Central London where a vast array of awesome cars are everywhere.

I get the usual, that's in great I love that shape BMW or it's like a new old car! Quite a few people asking if it's for sale too but the most interesting thing is it's been anyone from 20 to 60 years old.

Good point, actually.

Someone on this site - on this very thread would you believe - declared that the respray and modifications I had done to my car were criminal.

Like a give a sh*t

I don't follow.

[johnt0709]

The thread is what are the worst comments you've had about your car - Im sure you've had some derogatory remarks on this forum even if they are 'tongue in cheek' - none of them impressed you as particularly witty?

[Cypriotgeeza]

All i've ever had on this site is the 318i.s vs 325 sport debate lol which never goes anywhere!
