If you've got a performance review from a period classic magazine, can you scan it in and email it to me or Kedge, or post it in this thread?

I want to put one on each E30 model page, from the humble 316 all the way to the 325i Sport. As an example, here's something for the rare 333i:

Is this for a new page or shall we add this as part of the brochure page?

Last night I added another sub category to the brochure page which ties into this a little;

My plan is to stick a review on each Model page, since there's a massive yawning gap there. No need to confuse it with the Brochures just yet.

Basically, I can't be arsed trying to think what to say about the 316 if someone else said it 20 years ago.

Makes sense really, can't really write a review of something you might not have driven :D
