thinking about giving up on the e30
Moderator: martauto
just about had enough of my e30 guys it seems one thing after another.I bought it for £350 and paid £150 to have it couried up here from london to hereford.(cant help it im addicted to these cars had about six of them now lol) and I've spent loads on it with parts and fuel to get the parts.the car was smashed up at front and I've rebuilt it all had new engine mounts fitted which cost me £90 cause the engine moved of the mounts from the impact it had.I got the car off ebay without looking at it so I had to have it but put it all back to gether new wings valance grill bumpers the lot .but nothing seems to line up right well to my standards anyways soz to moan lads but it is really turning into love and hate with diane (the car lol)
you bought a crash damaged turd for £350 and paid for it to be delivered, without even looking at it...and wonder why you get problems 
with the amount it sounds youve spent on it you could of bought a nice one surely

Can't be arsed working out what this is all about, but the 'management' are cracking down on this kind of thing in our forums.

nice pm polsta!
you seem to think it's fine to have random pops at anyone and slate there cars.
'sport'. maybe you would do well just to keep your big mouth shut and your opinions to yourself.
polsta wrote:so whats your problem then keep trying to have digs at me and play the sucker thinking your funny
is there any need or reason for it ?
never had a problem with you, or you me...yet you insist latley on being a , any reason ? "up pops magpie with a dig...suprise suprise" is getting the theme latley, makes me laugh and i couldnt really care a f**k, ...but its just tedious and i dont wish to have thread after thread containing tits like you having a swipe
best for the good of the board and peoples threads if you just lay off and keep out my way/ignore me if you cant help being a coz its getting tedious

Got the link to the original listing so we can have a look? Sounds like some impact! Does sound like you may be best taking off the bits you need, fragging the rest and switch them to a new shell.
I bought my E30 for £400 and poured a lot of time and monies into it.. still a long way to go but enjoying it more and more with each improvement

If your wife must learn to drive, don't stand in her way!
it doesn't sound like you can afford to run a car
e30's must be one of the cheapest cars to run out there, taking into account total cost of ownership

i'm fed up of my e30... it's currently sat in my workshop in primer ready to be painted... as soon as that's done and i get a fresh mot on it... it's going.
Mick i always had a lot of respect for you on here... but don't think you should of posted up the PM... at least Polsta took it to PM so it's kept between you.... in this instance it just makes you look a bit childish wanting to get the better on this thead.... as said... i got a lot of respect for you so please don't think i'm having a pop.
Polsta's not the only one who has digs on others threads... won't be the first and certainly won't be the last.

sending abusive pm's is out of order,when i opened the pm my 10 year old daughter was sat watching and read it.
let's just say i'm not best pleased about that.
cheers for the heads up mr Haywood,no offense taken .
