Sounds like a bit of a weapon that Fi. A mate of mine purchased an ex police Impreza a few years ago - it was an absolute animal.

Hi Mart! Yes, it’s a bit of a weapon indeed, but very bland in a silver 5 series touring way :-(. Going to be doing some gentle modification to lose the ‘doughnut effect’ 8)

Plenty of people on here have 5's as well :D

But always thought this one is good and all quite helpful, just like the Zone :thumb:

I'm not the biggest fan of facebook but to be fair the 'BMW e60/e61 owners club official' seems to be the best I've come across so far.

Thanks a lot Jamesy and flybynite. Makes me realise what a fine forum the E30 Zone is (not that I didn't know already :wink: )

I was picking up some bits for the E61 at the scrapyard today, and spotted a red E30 on top of a pile of squished cars. I would love to own one again some time, but in the meantime the E30s will just have to put up with the love I have for them :o: :bmw: :o: :mad:

Take care love and try not to be a stranger please ?
