I've been messing about with E30's for almost 12 years now and over that time I've always owned at least one and ran one as a daily driver. That only changed December last year when I bought an E36 and now run an E34 as a daily. I currently have 4 E30's.

E28 under restoration.....but when it's finished, I've got my eye out for a nice chromie to do the same with.

This is easily the best site for 80s BMW knowledge!

We seem to have over 41000 members but I don't think we could scrape together under a 1000 members with E30's :?
I've just queried the database and we have 4233 Dead users this includes members that join but don't post.

if all you guys have so many e30's then the real membership is pretty low are there even 40,000 e30,s left? I have one but have been driving them for 13 years and have owned 6 in that time. Someone should contact the dvla and see how many are on the road (won't include most of the ones mentioned above) My bet is around 20k but its a wild guess.
