This arrived in the local breakers yard this morning, haven't had chance to see it yet but the photo of the engine bay is great, considering most E30 engines bays are covered in oil.
Only a 316i but still a shame it's in there in that condition.

I'll prob get up there in the morning and it's stripped bare, the last E30 was!

Wow, lovely engine bay indeed. Someone had a chronic arse though to destroy the seat like that! 8O

was up there today and bumped into Jimbob, that touring was in excellent condition, no real rust issues at all, no accident damage, someone can't have known what they had and just scrapped it.
