Pretty sure there have been detail shot threads before, may be easier to resurrect a classic!

I don't know about the oldest still going as there is the Hennared one that was auto and then trashed, only to be converted to manual and someone is now hoping to resurrect it.
I do know it is the only surviving Press car from the launch of the E30 and loaned to Motor magazine for 12 months for their long term test.
