the worse wheels i have ever seen on an e30 and that alone this leads me to think it is probably a piece of chavved up scrap. Hows that for positive?

i'd hold out for a 325i m8 50 bhp more and uses the same amount of fuel.
stay away from chaved up scrap!

Just reread the advert
"sought after model"

He obviously isn't a zone member with the hate for 320i cars!

Dont blame you! Its the painted drums on the back that completely ruin it, would look better with the standard rims but depending on your budget there will be better e30's for that money just have to be patient sometimes

Thats not bad for the money, the battery tray in the engine bay looks bit nasty thow makes me think there could be more rust lurking
A flight to edinburgh wouldnt cost a lot but you would still have to drive back and it could be a turd when you get up there

The front bumper looks like its had a whack on the one side also.
Have a look on carandclassic.co.uk and classiccarsforsale.co.uk there might be something on one of them
