Has potential for sure..tints off with some nice recaro's to really make it shine :cool:

I like it!! Get rid of tints but I think the wheels and repeaters look good.

Which has been re-sprayed in the not so distant past - leather re-trimmed (albeit ugly)..

Well the 'de-councilling' is where the potential lies..I would think the E23 would be a sought after/cherished car as long as tinworm was nowhere near it.

I think for someone willing to spend the time, money and effort - it could be a really nice car!

LOL@known crack user! :P

The inside would need sorting, there's no mention of rot but presumably there will be some. My biggest concern would be gearbox, I don't know enough about autos to know how much it would cost and what the issue is.

Picture number 5 has me worried. Is that the check control panel on the right of the dash that's lit up like blackpool?

An excuse for a more modern lump and box :cool: M52 2.8? winkeye

I was thinking more body condition and status wise (don't see many E23's for sale - not me anyway)..it'd be a good platform to start..

I love the front look. E28/E21ish sort of blend!

I've weighed in better E23's than that. These shitheaps are in no way cool, thy're just a shed on wheels.

A 735i manual has an appeal, a brown 732i auto doesn't!
