325ix

Fri Jul 29, 2011 5:54 pm

A question for those in the know.

Was the 325ix produced in a touring body?

When was the last time anyone saw a 325ix for sale and what sort of money are they worth?

Many thanks

2.5k iirc.

RealOEM lists production as Jan 1988 to Dec 1992

No shortage here either.

they are only rare here because they are LHD, pointless having one really.

There's an Alpina one over here too, but it's been "customised"...

Mmm hypno-wheels! My eyes hurt.

I have a 325ix touring!

Would love to see one of these, the 4wd system intrigues me.

Pointless because they're LHD?

BigBav is your car left hooker?

Thu Aug 04, 2011 10:24 pm

It will be unless it was an aftermarket conversion.

I'd like a ix for the winter and shooting trips but for use in this country it would be pretty much useless if it were a left hooker. A RHD conversion wouldn't be that difficult to do would it? Or does something obstruct the conversion?
My Subaru does the job just fine and is a lot quicker than 325, however an e30 would be somewhat cooler.
A RHD 325ix touring with an E36 2.5tds engine would be the ultimate in my opinion, can anyone advise if it would be possible without major arse pain?

There's nothing wrong with LHD in this country, ask any M3 owner

I had a LHD Fiat Coupe for over ten years and it isn't a problem unless you've got a serious drive-through habit.
I doubt a RHD conversion would be easy, there's a lot more going on under the bonnet with the 4x4 system and a lot of the front suspension parts are iX specific so you'll have fun finding RHD parts to fit.
Ofc, nothing is impossible - but is it worth it? Just drive from the left seat and watch the girls go by

Had a left hooker 911 for 11 years, man I loved that car. Anyway, so I've had my fair share of experience sat on the wrong side. I tried to use the 911 as a daily for a while but RHD is so much easier on a day to day basis. The previously mentioned drive throughs, car parks and most importantly if you are driving something with a bit of poke, you ever tried overtaking a van/lorry in a Lhd? Rolling the dice my friend, rolling the dice...
