Hello guys.

was wondering if anybody knows of any breakers or anywhere else that i can get used and spare e30 parts from in west london?

I am in hounslow it would be handy to know somwhere close by that i could go look for parts and have a rumouge around as every where else seems to be quite far and being as impatient as i am i hate waiting for delivery. need parts now!!

P.s looking for a heater blower motor if anyone has or knows where i can get one from.

Thanks!!

Try London Autoparts, next to Vanguard off the A40, just before the Hanger lane roundabout.
Old school scrap yard.
Haven't been there in a while, but bring your tools.

Just try Adit or Pacerpete. Petes not far from you either. Very few E30's in yards these days.
Selection of BMW hardtops available, please ask!

gotta wear hi vis, sign in and out and all that. used to walk in, climb all over the cars, take what you wanted pay and get out.

now i think you have to put a deposit down, then tell them exactly what you're looking for all areas monitored by CCTV. i know it's a business. but what happened to the scrap yard mentality!

i work on building sites, and i hate all the health and safety malarky. i mean what happened to natural selection? if you're dumb enough to stick your finger into a live socket, then your no longer welcome in the gene pool! haha

sorry for the thread jack. i'll pipe down!
