Ive just found my old e30 sport for sale in copart rochford.
The lot number is 26281343.
The engine caught light as i was driving, it wasnt a major fire but i just got disheartened with the car and let the insurance company take it.
If any one knows where this car ends up after tomorrows auction then ive still got all the service history book and loads of reciepts for it......
I actually nearly chucked them away yesterday!
Ill keep hold of them for another couple of weeks then ill bin them.
Im not going to just hand them over to anyone. I will want to see proof that you actually have the car.
So if you or anyone you know ends up with this car, just give me a shout.

Seems to have grown a couple more doors.
Big mistake going through insurance in the first place IMO for such a simple repair. The car's now got a marker against it, and you have a claim recorded against your insurance record.
