[Davenotouring]

Here are some more pictures of my new 325i Sport.













Here's the new one...



The old one....

[Sjoerd320i]

ditch the civic and make this one a 2.7

I can only dream of 2 bm's in my drive way

Sjoerd

[Splondike]

ditch the civic and make this one a 2.7

Now that's a good plan

Looks very nice Dave - will be a cool ride once the lump is sorted out.

[Nelly]

I hate you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Only joking Dave - excellent find there my friend and a mirror imiage of your original sport.
Hope to see her returned to her former glory after you finish Uni.
Baggsy the first 'meet' ride in her.

[Davenotouring]

Cheer chaps.

Neil, the wheels are even pointing the same way!

How funny are the bottom two pics. You can see it needs a good polish! It's not bad, but not as shiney as the old one!

Will bring it to a meet in June I hope.

[nadz325i]

hey dave,

congrats on the purchase, nice sport indeed, reminds of my one lol even the picture when i bought it

this pic will stay in my head forever,

[Dodd]

Look after her mate.
She still looks very nice and I will miss driving her.
Looks like I have found my mk4 Golf gti so for now
I leave gutted in one respect but happy about keeping
her alive considering she was going to the scrappy the day before.
I will be back with another E30 just don't tell the wife.

[Davenotouring]

Look after her mate.

I will mate, don't worry. When I finish Uni she'll be having a proper clean up and I've already sorted a new engine.....Will be having the body sorted and the few other bits and bobs, and she'll be a beaut.

Really wish I didn't have uni work to do, or I'd be sorting out all these bits now!!

[Dominitry]

Looks stunning mate,

[McLuths]

Looks mint mate, what needs doing on her?

[Davenotouring]

The pictures are a bit deceiving....

It is pretty much straight and tidy, but there's rust on both rear arches (not holes, or major, but needs doing). A bit of rust on the scuttle on the passenger side, a couple of other bits but nothing too bad.

The interior is tidy, bar the base of the drivers seat, but that's in hand already.

It's up in Cambridge, and I'm down in Brighton, that's the main problem at the moment!!

[BMK]

Excellent Dave....it looks mint mate!!

[Adammcf]

Very nice indeedy!

[johnono]

good one fella u wanted the sport anyway
she looks lush dude, cant wait to see how she turns out

[Kam320i_cab]

hi dave!! nice one mate, looks stunning, chuffed for ya

I really want to join the sport club

[frosted]

aahhhh

you have to love the black sports.

sexy as hell

[Daryll]

Looks bootiful Dave!!! They really do look special in black!!

[gareth]

niiiiice!

does this classify as an addiction?

it does looks damn fine, i have to agree. your old one shows it up though... GET POLISHING!

[Davenotouring]

Yeah definately an addiction!!

She's going in tomorrow for the head to be checked, if it's something simple (yeah right!) then it'll be fixed. If not, I'm gonna get this secondhand head put on which my specialists has. Should be done in time for Ace Cafe!! (Hopefully!)

Now my dissertation is handed in, I'll be giving it a polish tomorrow!

[A1BMW325iSport]

top car mate!

thats what i`m hoping to get mine to look like... someday

[technoviolet]

Looks proper hard mate,cant beat diamond black eh!

[Davenotouring]

Yeah I love the Sports in diamond black

[frosted]

I leave gutted in one respect but happy about keeping
her alive considering she was going to the scrappy the day before.

why was she going scrappy????!!!!

looks lush!

[Zayyan]

Cracked head I think

[Davenotouring]

You guys talking about my one?

The reason I was considering breaking it was due to the amount I could have made from selling the parts. Which would have meant making cash rather than spending out to fix it, where making any money on the car is tough!

[Zayyan]

spending out to fix it, where making any money on the car is tough!

[Davenotouring]

Mate, it's true. I've spend silly amounts already, and I've not even started on the body.

[Zayyan]

The estimate didn't work out then?

[Davenotouring]

A definate NO

I'm chucking all this money at it in stages though, and I should get a decent sum at the end. May as well have put it in the bank! But I'm saving a Sport so nevermind.

[Zayyan]

As long as you're not actually losing money on it saving a Sport's a good reason to be carrying on

[Davenotouring]

I don't think I'll lose money, but it will be close after the body is done also.

Replacing most of the bits under the bonnet has killed me, plus using genuine BMW bits. Could have done it cheaper, but I have done it properly in my opinion.

[Zayyan]

Well it does sound like you're doing it properly

Real BM bits should improve the selling price anyway....

Good luck with it
