Can anyone tell me if there are any other E30 320is' in the U.K. at the moment or have I got the only one? a¤”

I know of at least 3.

Two owned currently by zone members and another that was owned by a zone member.

No doubt there are more.

Breaks my heart to see it, but at least it's in good hands!

Sorry to break it to you but I have one!

Is yours a 2 or 4 door?

Post Sat Jun 10, 2017 11:00 pm

Awesome to hear there's another. Mine is a 2 door. Yours?

Mines a door two aswell! Once mines back from the workshop I'll snap a few photos and put them on here. I'm glad to see another 320is owner on here

Arrrr!! Awesome car, that's Dans old chariot isn't it. I've seen this in the flesh several times and she is a beauty. I once had mine in at BBB at the same time as yours.

I was actually speaking to the owner previous to Dan on Instagram the other day, and he was asking me if I knew the where about's of the car because he wanted to buy it back. His a detailer up in Scotland.

How are you finding it? It was absolutely immaculate last time I saw it. Must be around 4/5 years ago now.

Yeah, that's the car. It's pretty much mint still. Only come out of the garage when it's decent weather! Got a mk2 Golf GTI as my daily drive.

I know in the total bmw article it stated that Dan put like 80 hours into the paint! Have you had it long then? I'm partial to a MK2 aswell. Driven a few friends cars but never got one myself, but I will at some point.

I've not had it a long time, but I bought it from a good friend and I believe he bought it from Dan. I love the car, although I'm still getting used to it been left hand drive and that gearbox.... I'm so paranoid about getting it wrong!

It does take a little while to get used to but its so worth it. I like it when you tell someone for the first time where first gear is...they always seem to look puzzled aha!

I just don't want to miss shift and trash the gearbox and engine! But I am getting used to it, slowly.
