Hi Everyone

Have been following the site and forum for a while now. Finally pulled the trigger with a 1984 320i sedan.

Glad to be here to share some tips and insights of this beautiful machine.

Thanks mate. It's not the original color though (lighter shade)... Previous owner had it resprayed and restored.

Nice one :thumb: looks really well

Bit of a shame they colour-coded the chrome and went black on the window trim.

Trouble is I did exactly the same to mine :o: now regretting it and slowly collecting bits of chrome :roll:

There will soon be a clamour on here for more photos :D

Welcome, good looking car you have.
I like the look of that dash top cover, presumably it has worked and the dash is not cracked underneath ? It beats the old grey dog blanket that I use .
I look forward to more pictures from Kuala Lumpur.
