I got this car off one of my longest serving friends! Probably been friends for 11 years and he had it the whole time I've known him! He has looked after it and he is an engineering genius but he has his personal reasons for not finishing it how he wanted.

The car is gorgeous but the engine is not finished yet, I'll post some pictures of where it's at right now

Its a 325i Sport, not Motorsport.

325i Motorsports were convertibles.

Looks nice enough and has genuine Alpina wheels. :cool:

Fastroad, the roof and front half have all been done, but although the rear inner arches aren't bad they will need doing at some point, my friend says that's quite an expensive procedure, but we all know these cars are money pits, we do it cos there's nothing better!! I've driven a few before and they'e awesome

Totally agree. I have said so many times over the year that I will not buy another E30, but just can not help myself.

I have a few but never enough a˜Š

Thanks guys! I'm super excited :) I'll start work on it within the next couple of weeks and I'll start a build thread :) I might buy a second hand engine and put it in so I can drive it up until the summer and then do the swap in the summer.

It's got some really nice black leather in really good condition, and I have in my garage a brand new e30 floor carpet and sound proofing! Just dyed the carpet black! Post some pictures soon.
