I have a 316 Baur , 12 months test , no advisories .
Most of the paint is from new but has a quite a lot of "usage " marks.
She will never be A1 in looks ,but starts and runs fine for an old girl but will never beat the speed records. lol.
This not a sport / 325/ cab, but is an e30 like it or not, but at the end of the day .....these will increase in price in my opinion so ...what do you think ??

Here are a couple and the millage is around 123,000 and stacks of owners, but the real question is , are solid weird cars like this going up in value simply because of the rarity of e30`s? I have only seen three in the last year !!
I have no intention of selling as this is my little bit of 80`s which I also use year round even in the snow.
Just curious really

it looks in nice condition and has clearly been looked after, given that I know someone who has a Marina and loves will pay the going rate for it.

An M40 would make a nice upgrade..

The M10 stays as it is not that far away from an M40 .
Like I said before, I will not sell her as I bought her for me and my girl to fool around in during our hot summer months winkeye winkeye winkeye

I am still curious to feel the value so next time I insure the car, do I go for an agreed value even though she is not the most sought after E30?

Many thanks Mart.
