for the banter obviously :D

they could be here as ex e30 owners or potential e30 owners who are looking around and finding they're feet or they could just be here to kill some time :cool:

still eb interesting to see how many zoners are currently without e30's at the moment though

*Puts hand up*

Oops i'm still kicking about. Only sold due to insurance and I can fit more uni crap in a audi estate. I will own another e30 in a few years time as a toy. I like the banter, especially the current council banter at the moment. Naa i just like e30's and the way they drive, but not the way they rust :cry:

Agree to disagree lol!

Think the tech 2 looks a bit more evil IMO!

Each to their own though eh!! Still a lovely motor! Borbets arent wide enough though!
