Hello
Similar to others, been lurking for a while and now signed up.
Purchased a 1990 320i auto saloon in green just after Christmas and have been enjoying it since.
Not much wrong with it and very little rust, apart froM a patch (hole) above the number plate light.
Been applying some tlc over the last few months, like fixing wiper issues, indicator issues, radiator change, fluids change, etc. Have enjoyed it.
James

Hi James, welcome. Looks like a good car you have there. Any chance of sharing a few more pictures of it?

From one green to another - looks great!

What are the ‘Buttons’ next to the centre air vents on the dash?

I’m not sure to be honest, not buttons though. They’ve got little mesh covers overs. I thought they might be original. I assume not now.

Yes, After blowing up 100x I see they are ultrasonic sensors, neat install.

A close up.
No alarm system on the car now though.
