bought this very clean 318is from a zoner last sunday.

of course i had to put everyones favourite council wheels on for this very special occasion of posting it on here

Its a clean car , solid, and fun to drive. Im toying with the idea of dropping a 24v in it sometime this year but i dont really want to bastardize this 318is .

Still havnt decided what wheels to buy..im liking the idea of borbet A's but we will see what comes up for sale.

Just do it! if your worried about keeping it original or loosing value, once you removed the M42 chuck it up a corner with a sheet over it, when its time to sell you always got the option to lob it back in and no one will ever know. :)

I owned this car about 5 years ago, it started my love of E30's! It has changed a bit mind over the years. No leather or black kidney when I had it. So glad to see its still on the road :D

to be fair, them wheels (although i dont "like" as such, somehow dont look bad and suit the car with the black/red and general all round look

the car looks super conditon, steering wheel needs to be rectified

That's a pwetty car. Looks in great nick. The leathers in particular look in good nick and firm. Nice buy that man. For what it's worth and my opinion isn't worth a lot, bbs would finish it off plus a tech I or tech II steering wheel. But the wheels on ther do look ok. Good work that man. Very lucky to own 2 x E30's.
