Fell in love with my car last night.

[pictonroad]

Went up to the No Rice meet at fleet services, only had the car a few weeks and last night was my first b road session.

Wow.

Everything they say about E30's is true. Mine is a well looked after car on Mtec suspension with proper sized wheels and it was a dream.

So faithful on the corners, comfy, fun, looks cool.

I LOVE IT.

You know that moment? Great isn't it.

G909. I promise to be faithful to you and to polish your shiny bits properly.

Give you 6 months and i bet you do so much to it, its an addiction especially being a member to the zone. Just make sure you keep taking pictures. 6 months has passed for me and i am trying to get her in the mintest condition ever, 15 year old car that gets compliments on the road is an accomplishment, but hey i guess bmw's are the only car that still runs at this age and hasnt rusted away.

[Greeny]

Still the Ultimate Driving Experience! I love E30's.

Never with any other car (and I've had a few) have people gone out of there way to tell me that they love my car.

[Cotty]

Sounds like you had fun, just keep it shiny side up

[Stu_B]

Picton - what model is it? Looks nice! (It's Stu from RetroRides by the way)

but hey i guess bmw's are the only car that still runs at this age and hasnt rusted away.

Hmm... yes, plus old VW's...

[J_Mac]

just don't go as far as the bloke in the papers custom knob sized exhausts, you get the idea

[Gouki]

As spence_star said, this place is melting pot full of ideas, since joining the zone my pockets have been lightened! Good luck with the car dude.

Ha Ha I know what you mean.... only had mine three days and havent driven it much.......was out in it today and overtook someone and then down into this windy bit of A road..........actually shouted yeah baby or something like that when i came out the other side

[Pal318is]

No other car like it....at all

Pal

[snoops]

you can't beat the e30, looks better with subtle mods nothing to MAX POWER

[bigmattpowell]

Only had my touring about a year, had a few problems but already I'm thinking of it as "my first e30" of many

[Barx325i]

I've yet to sample the delights of the 318iS but I've had a few moments of excitement in my 325i

Was amazed at how much you can push it around the corners when I first got mine (billies and eibachs helped a lot in that department!) After a few months of E30/RWD experience I was hard pushed to find anyone able to keep up in the twisties. pi55ed from a great height on many a scooby and 20k/30k + cars in my £700 tool of choice.

heh heh heh how the mighty have fallen to a 189,000 daily driver nail (tarting the old dear up now tho)

It's been a 3 year love affair so far, longer than any girlfriend

[oakey]

i used to go the norice meets. good meets. Ive been told its got HUGE now?
ive been in love with me e30 since the day i bought it. i treat the e30 far more than i treat the mrs!

[pictonroad]

I'm not blinkered, it's a 320i, I know it's actually pretty slow and the mpg will get to me one day.....

I've been a VW man for years (still am really ) and I know the threads about beating Scooby's and Lambo's from my Mk2 16v days...

I'm a bit too old for all that now, I'm well aware that it's not the fastest car in the world, nor would it be faster than my mate's diesel even with a 2.5 in it!

To me, a car is more than just how fast it is, it's all about how it makes you feel, if it makes you smile then I don't care if it's a Yugo, go ahead and enjoy it.

Oh, and No Rice was awesome, the police closed Fleet services because there were too many cars Couple of M3's too.... dribble..........

The chin spoiler on your E30............where can I get one? Will hide a cosmetic imperfection erm perfectly!!!

[pictonroad]

It was £800...


came with a free car though.

[kadettc]

Can anyone else shed any light on the chin spoiler on this car? I.E Where can I get one from? Does anyone have one for sale?

Will slap up a wanted thread too just to be sure. It is ideal for what I want.

[iDreamBeemer]

it is an iS lip spoiler and you can get one in the for sale section here if you want a 2nd hand one or new from a dealers
