E30 320iSE Artic Silver Coupe

[eldarvanyar]

Hi Guys, I have just joined the forum. I am expecting to get back my 320iSE that I sold about 4 years ago to one of my mates, in the next 2 months and wondering what I should do. If I remember right it's an Artic Silver with Mtech body kit, illuminated mtech gear knob and mtech steering wheel and BBW 14" alloys from new, obc, wipers on the lights, elec sunroof . The car has done about 103k. I want to make some subtle changes, maybe angel eye lights (on ebay from the USA), eybrow spolier. What about a real carbon dash and chrome rings. Who do you recommend to sort the interior in Essex if I want to go for Leather and Alcantara? Thinking of renewing the suspension but probably don't want to lower it, sorry What shocks and springs should I go for,Bilstein etc and subtle MTech mods I want to keep it classy and not bodged. let me know what you think. My mate also tells me that the speedo is playing up, is this to do with the batteries leaking on the module to do with the service lights? I should be aable to post some pics soon. Can't wait to get my hands back on it. Oy yeah he wants £1200 for it does that sound about right?

Sounds a good price to me seeing that it's an SE with all the toys, ref your speedo, check the connection of the plug on the back plate of the diff as these some times work their way loose or get corroded over time - the speedo is electronically controled by the diff so no cable wrongness involved. If that fails, just replace the speedo it's self, easy job to do and you can check the SI board out at the same time.

Welcome and enjoy the Zone mate, Neil.
