Second opinion

This bumper isnt right on this car is it ,looks like a tech 1 rear bumper to me and did they facelift the cab ones later or something i had a H reg pre facelift and this ones on a 89 ?

[magpie]

it's a pre facelift car with tech1 rear valance ,is the front bumper metal or plastic ?

[sunnysr]

Not sure a friend is looking at buying it it just struck me as a bit odd it having that bumper on the back .So how come it took so long to facelift the cab`s i think it was a different production that ran longer but just seems odd ,thanks for the reply anyway

Cabbie's generally received mechanical updates at similar times to lesser E30's.

But bodywork mods were well behind saloon's.

I think cabs facelifted around 89/90. It's a wierd production thing.

It's got the correct Tech 1 bumper. Front valance looks right with the Tech 1 fogs too.

Twas a rusty nail anyway bad eBay advert should have said it all but the roof didn't even work right there was a big chunk out the bumper and it needed a full house of paint at the very least ,cheers for the help anyway .

Where is the car located in the country?

Sounds like you had a lucky escape.

It was a motorsport right?

The parts are right for the body shape, and the body shape is right for the year, but the front is standard chromie, while the rear has a tec1 valance.

It either needs a normal rear bumper putting on, or the rest of the kit to match the rear.
