Picked this up yesterday. I'm quite pleased with it. The interior needs tidying up but apart from that it's pretty solid. The only non-standard item is a full stainless exhaust which sounds very nice.

Jobs to do;

- minor bubbling on rear drivers arch
- bubbling on sunroof panel
- sunroof not working, also leaking
- cracked dash, got a replacement already, 99p off ebay!
- replace the headlining
- swap the interior for my black motorsport leather
- stereo doesn;t work
- plus other stuff...

I can't justify (not allowed) two E30's, so the blue car will have to go :(

looks pretty straight and tidy to start with so you should end up with a really nice car and the colour is lush. :wink:

Cheers Wullie. I tend to do (try at least) everything myself but it's nice to know there's someone nearby.

no probs mate. i have all the gear for rear bush removal and some of the other crappy jobs if you ever need a hand.

gonna try arrange a mini meet at my place one day soon for any zoners to come and fix alot of stuff like rear bushes ect. much easier with the right gear.

I was specifically looking for a late model in this colour.
