my convert

[nav786]

took my hardtop off ovaer the weekend, so got a few snaps.

its only a 318i as i bought it when i was 19, but have done lots of work to it.
318i design convertible in Neon green. ( only 25 made as im told)

Engine: 1800cc, scorpion half system exhaust

Suspension: lowered 35/35 on full spax kit, m3 replica wheels (dont like)

Body: Full mtech 2 kit, is spoiler, Hardtop, 34% tints all round

Interior: full cream leather retrim with green piping,

plenty of security.

The screens have all just been fitted and wired up.

I will be soon replacing the wheels, getting angel eyes, clear indicators,

and 2.5 engine. woohoo.












thanks for looking

[Davenotouring]

Thats really smart mate:D Looks so clean, I agree with you about changing the wheels;) Never was a fan of the motorsport alloys on an E30. Other than that, hot!

[M3RAGS]

been waiting for these pictures..looks fantastic!

[nav786]

cheers guys for comments.

placey - i did like wheels at first as they come with the car, but am now bored of them, and also think alpinas or azevs would look smart.

and i know alpinas have been done to death, but they do look good.

[nav786]

rags- one day soon i will have an m3 like yours. its awesome . i fell in love with the e30 when i was a kid and when my cousin bought an m3 convertible just like yours rags. it was left hooker. its been all about beemers since

[calypsocab]

Nav the cab looks very nice, I love the interior. where did u get the leather done from

[M3Imy]

Nice car mate. Love the colour. Haven't seen a Mtec kitted up BMin that colour before. I think the wheels look good too.

[Chaos]

stunning absolutely stunning.

dunno that i cud live with the colour myself but fair play its lush

just about the only thing i can see to do is to those cables from the headrest screens, id run them inside the back of the seats to the floor as opposed to hanging free.


is it just me or do motorsport wheels suit an e30 far more than the e36 ???

[McLuths]

How much did the retrim cost ya? Looks like a nice job...

[bootyman]

I've seen this car in the flesh and it's even better than it looks in the pictures and it's got a coded hard-top as well. Yum, yum. Well done mate

[willow]

That's got to be one of the best cabs I've seen yet - love it!

[tbmw]

looks really sweet
love the wheels, want a set of these for my motor

[cuk325]

nav that looks sweet....
love that colour.

[nav786]

tank you all guys.
i do like the wheels but am now bored of them. i would like a change.
the engine will probably sooner than the wheels due to cash flow. the screens are all wired up now. the wire runs down the back of the seat out and under the carpet, and i done most of it myself.

the re trim cost me around Ԛ£1800, which im very pleased with. the guy who done its based in east london.

again cheers for the comments guys, it makes it all worth it

[Simon13]

I've seen the car and it's quality, some nice refurbed rims will make it hard to beat for condition! The colour makes it so unique, I prefer the neon blue, but the green does look very nice too

[E30-Andy]

Well smart m8

[valver]

so clean!!!

the motorsport wheels actually look good on it, so needs clear lenses though

[Jason-E30]

minted

[nav786]

e30-Andy - love your motor mate. the kahns look awesome on it. where did you get them from if you dont mind me asking

[badnan]

nice motor

[Kam320i_cab]

nav, u have deprived every one for not showing your car long enuf! i will say this a thousand times - its fookin quality, better in the flesh, i love it

the colour and leather looks so good tgether

nice one bruv!!

by the way u want a sig?

[nav786]

im making one right now mate. i do like yours tho. the pic from rear looks mad.

[nav786]

whats happenung with the a/v unit kam? saw the car outside uni few days ago and no unit?

[Kam320i_cab]

nav i popd out for a couple of minutes so it wernt in, never have it in all the time unless im out with the boys on a night out. im very paranoid about the car plus with an expensive system - any one can cut the rag top and help them selves, even with my fort knox security!!

next time we link il show u my sounds

[nav786]

so you walk around with a unit in your hand, only kidding dude. i knw what you mean. i dont park mine anywhere too long

[fastcarz464]

Nav, thats a awsome car mate, u sound alot like me, i have a design 318 cab but ive got the neon blue one, bought it when i was 18 (insurance) did have tvs in the headrests till some scum nicked them, going to get new ones after i put my 2.5 in
Did your car come with the kit or did u have it put on? im so jealous lol!!

[nav786]

neon blue is so cool. my cousins got one with the kit on and it looks . hopefully i'll soon be dropping the 2.5 in, but unsure at the moment as am looking at options for more power.

I had to get the kit fitted mate. this is where most the money went really, as front and back are brand new bumpers from $tealers.

get some pics of urs up dude.

[fastcarz464]

Yea mate, here she is, hopefully it will work!



hope u like it!

[fastcarz464]

another one, car has seen better days, its going in for a full respray, and im adding AV3 rear bumper and side skirts with a rieger frount lip, maybe some new Kahn RSC's too! Dont drive it too much, ive got a black e36 318i to drive everyday, im too scared leaving my cab anywhere in manchester, too many theiving twats!

[nav786]

[Kam320i_cab]
