It happened today

[GC318]

No offence but i reckon over 50% of E30's with under 100k have been clocked

How do you work that out

Well i think average mileage per year is around 12k and most E30's are over 20 years old now so work it out yourself.

Sure there are gonna be some knocking around that have hardly been used or sat for ages.

Its going on with loads of retro classics at the minute, just knocking 50k off a car like an E30 can add around £500 to its value on the right one not a bad little earner for half hours work

123k on the clock. Only done 10k over the last 2 years + history to back up mileage

I reckon it's been clocked mate.
How many miles are on the pina lump?

Less than 50k, and its obvious when opened up

You would fall in a bucket of sh1t and come out smelling of aftershave.

I've never heard a E30 engine fail because its got a too many miles.

[chris_335]

so its gunna do another 200+k after then

[Dezzy]

Ollie why does everyone want you to bend your car?

[Ollie_bwoii]

Not sure, one less chromie and driver on the road.

I think it's a bit harsh myself. I did think you might have bin'd it like.

[Alex]

i got my 2nd years no claims through yesterday

[Ollie_bwoii]

Well for future, if you notice my absence on the zone, then yes i've binned it, and it hurt.

[Bob_S]

my 320 had an abused 183k on the clock when i waved bye bye 4 engines and 2 sets of running gear, 5 diffs and countless good times!

[paddywack]

116000 and no wear on drivers seat, and my last one 118000 was just the same plus a good bit of paper work to confirm

This wouldn't surprise me because you'll see how easy it is to "clock" an E30 if you've ever taken an instrument cluster apart.

i'm a day or two short of hitting 180k on the clock several new diffs, new brakes, new engine, new suspension etc etc... though to be fair most of that has been upgrades not failures.

the only original bits are the shell, some of the glass, the interior and the passenger side doors!
