Hi guys,

A friend of mine is looking at this e30. Yes it does look dodgy - with no paperwork etc but wants an e30 to tinker.

Does anybody know this car ?

I personally would never touch a car without the correct paper work unless it was a sub £1000 car, and even then I would try to avoid it

Looks like an unmolested car.

Shame the seller appears to be an illiterate spastic.

Wow such command of our language- I hope English is a second language to the seller 8O

Seriously, who'd spend strong £ for zero paperwork? :roll:

If the owner doesn't see guarding a classic car's documentation as important then he is an absolute knuckle dragger. I'd be weary of this, it's been in the hands of neanderthals.

No papers, for all you know this could just be a stolen car with the locks changed.

It never ceases to amaze me how people make life difficult for themselves and throw money away for the want of a small investment of time and money :?
