What are your general feelings about prices for the e30 C1 2.3's?
I know there are many that say its not worth much as you can get a better car from the c2 2.5/2.7's etc, so just after some info on prices for one of these.
Cheers all

as a guide 2k max for a minter with all correct parts fitted, fsh and minimal body rot.
they are quirky yes, but are exactly the same BHP and torque of a 325i which apart from the alpina bits makes them a bit pointless, hence why they are a bit un loved
i know more if u are interested because i am a very sad individual when it comes to these cars!

a real good one will be worth more than 2k.

From my ivory tower block i do decree that a very nice , good spec C1 2.3 should fetch between Ԛ£2- 3000 but since there are no nice ones left its irrelevent !

ebay. has nothing to do with a value of a car like this or any other car for that matter. unfortunatly it efects the minds of most council types, who see a turd ebay and then think every other example is worth the same if not less.
ebay is best suited for low end cars(like the ones i sell

I sold mine for Ԛ£1850, a very ropey example with an incorrect 2.7 engine. But there aren't any nice ones in the U.K, they're all 'challenged'. My white one, when it's completed next year, would be Ԛ£5-6000 but it would be a full on minter show car. Top cars command top money but with the C1 2.3 where they're basically all shitters there isn't a middle ground. I would say Ԛ£2500 for a tidy up together example with the right bits.

i was using ebay as that was the last nice looking one i saw. Seeing as they built 35 or so i expect there are only 10 or so left
