Get a f* grip,we are talking about 20+yr.old sub £10k cars here,NOT the crown jewels!
Very nice looking- but forum rules state "if your car is nice looking, you will need to post up multiple pictures and give some info- not just a couple of teaser pics"
So get on with it

I'm interested to learn (I'm sure I'm not the only one either) where you managed to find such a stunner!!

Looked at perhaps 2 hardtops and a couple of convertibles over the last few years and they have not 'pulled' me in - i checked this out and barring some mechanical bits i could not really fault the car on general condition and it looked peachy...in grey and what i remember from 20 years back being 17 and passing my test buying a marina then onto cortinas whilst watching these brand new 325i sports driving about the place!
It's got good history, no rust and following mods :
Full equal length stainless manifold;
Full Stainless Exhaust;
Recovered steering wheel in grey;
Spax shocks/springs;
Lenso staggered alloys.
What i've already done.....
Cambelt / tensioner
Oil / filter
New Sump
Sub frame bolt drilled out
Diff oil (pretty clean what came out which is good..).
Immediate plans:
Tappets;
Main rubber hose going from manifold;
gearbox oil;

It's certainly a lovely car, but did you buy it from a private seller close to where you live or an internet sale. I'd love a nice Sport, but I haven't seen anything as nice as yours. Great purchase.

Jobs i've done so far over winter :
Colour coded the side indicators delphin grey (kept orange plastic) - looks really good;
Replaced plastic scuttle panel covers (around wiper arms) - they had gone grey and replaced for £25 quid all in from BMW;
BMW centre alloy wheel stickers;
Sprayed inlet manifold;
sprayed rocker cover and sanded BMW & FINS;
Took rear plastic number plate surround off to clean off some wax marks;
Generally cleaned engine.
To do before car comes out for summer - introcude some bass for system (sub and amp), replace foam on bonnet (£45 ordered from BMW), rubber inlet manifold tube is a little cracked so replace and get the tappets done as first job in garage.
I'll get some more photos up soon

interesting - you know the car from previous owners and its always good to hear its the car i think it is - condition wise. Cheers mate
(there is a self tapper on each side but they are black so dont look toooo bad - car is in better shape than when i collected as i've spent cash on the mechanical side - looks wise it was sweet)
Cheers for the comment mate

My favourite colour on an e30. Top car mate. :0)
That is nice.
Think i need the original front and side indicator lenses for mine as aposed to smoked, looks way better.

Yes i see the surround now, cool. Sure i got some originals somewhere in the house.E30S wrote:They have BMW logos now - perhaps not in the early shots.
I like the orange indiccators - had the black plastic surround off the side ones professionally sprayed dolphin which blends into the car really well..
cheers all
Nice car man.
Just up the road from me as well!
