I know it sound silly but loads more sideways!!! the cossie was a 6 time concours winner! so just didnt get used how it should have been!! Also most of the time it was all rapped up so it gets very expensive to have it sat around doing nothing!! Ill get some pics of that up soon too.

welcome dude :D
is it your first BMW? i got my first when i was 19 and another while i still had that, then i had a few different cars but nothing compared to the all round abillity of the E30 so i had to get another. I got another last may and never looked back, i still have that one plus my cab and just got another one, plus my mums got a cab and my dads got an alpina c2
once youve got the bug you cant stop like a lot of people will agree on here

well you found the right place to be anyway, hope this place is as good to you as it is to me
worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but it never really gets you anywhere

Welcome !!!!!!!!!!!

A/C was a standard option and is fitted in quite a few cars. Plus there are a fair amount of retro-fits. Rare no, uncommon maybe.
