Hello everyone!

Long time BMW fan, here.
E30 was ALMOST one of my first cars but it didn't happen.
Years later, I came across one of the best deals I have ever, in my life, and it is a great example to start off with!

Took 7 months of "rumors" about an "old BMW that someone just wanted to get rid of" and then finally, I scored this for $500 usd!

Had been sitting for 6 years.
Needed fluids, shocks/struts, tires, valve adjustment, output shaft seal and a couple vacuum lines.
Did all this and it is driving like a dream!

I currently own 6 BMW, this is the oldest.
I want to clear everything out and replace them all with E30s!

Hope to learn a lot and also be able to contribute to the community.

Cheers!
