I just love E30's for their superb reliability, their looks and of course the way they handle.

My car is now 15 years old and I have not been driving it regularly for a while. Today it was booked in for it's MOT, an hour later, car back MOT pass. No problems whatsoever. Nice one eh? :lol:

Embarrassing point is that I've only done approx 2,000 miles in it over the last year!! My mileage is low anyway, this is going to make it ever lower as the years go by!!

I LOVE MY CAR!! What other 15 year old car can be left standing around in all kinds of weather, still look good and still pass it's MOT first time without doing anything to it, and I mean, I did nothing. Not even take the car to the test centre!! Good old Papa Malcolm!! Although my car is not yet back - probably having fun driving it around knowing him!! 8) Oldest' BEEMER Cruiser around!! :wink:

Nice one Lizzie, i've had mine pass no probs the last 4 yrs too. Done 1400 miles last year, only real problems i've had is a hard-to-find battery drain from somewhere.
