Some great pictures there. In the fourth one down, the guy with his back to the camera was telling us about him and a mate buying a 325i, putting M Tech stripes on it and going off for a blast round the Nurburgring. He was actually showing his MX-5, he said, but still had a soft spot for the E30s.
If it ain't broke, fix it till it is

The owner was actually a really friendly chap. He'd done all the modifications himself before he turned 19, so the car is a 318 (to keep insurance costs down). Had quite a long chat with Gortour, Gazman and myself about it.
Not exactly my cup of tea either, I have to add!

I work with the owners brother, the guy who owned the lovely Rolls Royce and pink Limo nice bunch of guys, Mmmmm that e30 isn't to my taste either but he put alot of work into it and each to their own I guess.beemerbird wrote:The owner was actually a really friendly chap.

That mk2 Scort is Awsome 
I quite like the green cab actually... Not that I'd ever paint MY car that colour...
A good show, despite the weather, plenty to see, and plenty of stalls too. Even a Punch and Judy stall, haven't seen one of those in
years... lol
Glad I wasn't the only one having trouble with the garage. The SatNav was telling me to turn left off the M4 where there wasn't an exit... Then had to go up to the roundabout and back, and then assuming I'd messed up, I then did it again, and there definitely wasn't an exit there. So we came in off the roundabout after the garage and worked our way back again...
