No work "yet"... so what's in the pipeline? Looks very original, don't see many like that still on the road!

hey guys, well a little info on the car, i got it from a guy who's dad had recently died, this e30 was his Love and Joy. its a 1987 316 1.8. the car is in next to imaculate condition being Garage stored All its life and the interior is just stunning. want to be shocked on the mileage? its ONLY got 56 thousand miles on the clock from new! ive worked the math out and its done 2.5k a year since new! and the biggest wow yet is i Only paid £525 haha! im a very lucky guy. ive spent all today cleaning the outside of the car and done 4 parts T-cut to get minor scratches out ive still got the interior to fully vallet. its due MOT tomorrow morning fingers crossed, but as i drove it back from manchester the car has NO faults to my mind and the under the bonet is Imaculate all Origional parts! i will post more photo's when im happy with cleaning up of it. ive got planned a tech 1 kit not chavy at all so that includes front bumber + rear side skirts and bbs alloys old multispoke and eventually ill want full white leather interior seats maybe heated seats i dont know, its keeping the Chromeness to it so dont worry fanatics! thanks for the great comments! :D

EDIT; the car on the photo had'nt even been cleaned in a year of being garage stored so you can imagine what it looks like now after a t-cut!

It does look a tidy one. 8) Shame about the extra doors though.

I looked robert. Oh how I do miss my faithful chromie. :(

Still all is not lost, and there may be light at the end of the m40 powered turd that is the tunnel.
