Just been to the auctions in plymouth , i was lookin for cheap Astras to whack in the trader at inflated prices ,[my little side line]
But things went wrong , the first car i saw was a 325 in laschs silver on an E , very good nick too, i had to have it, the other half did not share my enthusiasm , so i binned her ! !
My collection now consists of 2 x 320 and 1 x 325 ,two of which she has purchased for me , so she cant moan can she ! !
The 325 set me back Ԛ£460 not bad as it had lots of T+T and only 135K.
Will get some pics up t.moro.
I have some probs with it so i will put them in tech help if anybody can help it would be cool
Cheers Jibbers :D

Oh.....now I understand when you got a 325 :cool:

Didn't know you had a pair of 320s though!

460 quid's a decent price.....it chrome or plastic?

Hi adam , when i say Plymouth i mean the place on your side of the water, saltash is where it all happens , i suppose you have been to that one , as for do many E30's pop up down there i would say no , its the only one i ever saw and to be honest the owner was a bit of a fool to enter it , its in far too good a nick in my opinion , he prob could have got twice what i paid if he put it in the trader !

Never mind , it turned out sweet for me :D

We could have a mini meet with some cornwall/devon folk,lol.

I know MissyE30 has just bought scotts 325i and she lives in St Austell, then theres someone on the site from exeter with a nice E30.

Thats it tho i think, so not to many at all, you going to this bm show day on the 8th of next month i think it is, Taunton i think.

Hope all goes well with your motors.
