Well, after owning several BMW's in my past (and two rather rough E30's which I never really drove) I decided that when a van destroyed my MX-5, I would treat myself to a better 3 series.She's only a 318 manual with around 140k on the clock, but having had a few 6 cylinder cars in the past, I'm not too worried this time around about beating any lap records etc.She's not a main car for me so will be mostly for summer cruising.

It's not quite as good as the pics make it look as it has a bit of sill rust one side and a few marks here and there, but overall it's not too bad (no seat bolster wear which was nice).It will need a new roof though (not quite as easy to put up and down as the MX-5 huh? ;p )

No real plans as such for the old girl, but I have a few bits on the way to tart her up (new blower motor, mudflaps, interior mats, new badges etc) so mod wise I will probably be sticking to a bit of a drop, a new steering wheel and add a rear bootlid spoiler which I have in the shed.I thought I may also need a new exhaust as it was making horrid noises, but it turned out to be a loose nut! Will probably get a new back box though.

Am also going to get my friend who does detailing to give her a going over (Based in Medway btw if anyone was ever interested in getting theirs done)

Will update more later..

How my Eunos looked before and after..

A few of my other old rides..

E28 dog leg manual M535i.Lovely old sideways machine which I owned in the early 90's.I wonder if she is still going..

Fancied something different just after we purchased our first house, so picked up this E21 323.It was approx 20ish years ago now when I had this and I still miss it..

328 coupe manual.Got this when it was only around 3 years old.Great car.

Also had a 3.0 manual E34 in black which was about 6 years old when I purchased.No pics of that one though sadly.
