SPOTTED! The official thread

Recommended Posts

Dark coloured 320i E30 Touring parked in the Silvia Park shopping mall’s car park.. Had the plate suggesting it was packing something other than a 2.0l under its hood.

Spotted your car yesterday, haven’t seen one other touring bar on cruises in the time I have owned mine… I don’t travel everyday though.

LOL! That's probably mine :P

there are 2 ways of reading the plate - most ppl seem to think its something bigger under the hood & hence try and blow past me! i just laugh.

Obviously i've chose the 2nd meaning as a work hack :)

there was 2 noticeable beamers in that park - one was a brand new e60 M5 parked on its own & a totally riced out/sacked E38 with hydrolics..blurgh!

I've seen 2 so far since my touring ownership -

One was a Mint Diamond black 325i that i spotted at Dannemora & another i see ever so frequently on the harbour bridge driven by an elderly lady that's dark green.

Ah, thought it would have been a member! Looks good, like the plastic things above the lights and the dark repeaters.

Is your car NZ new?

yea the eyelids - wasn't quite sure about them, but has grown on me.

the smoked repeaters and turn signal was pulled of my old e30 318iS i had a few years ago before i sold it.

I knew i'll own another e30 one day :)

sure is NZ new - from Team McMillan

has done 240,000K's

Picked up from an elderly lady from Parnell who had it for 10 Years.

we should have a touring meet one day....

Cool,, Touring meet would be funny, would need to pack a BBQ and some camping equipment.

Mine was sold NZ new at Team McMillan’s also, my car has also traveled 240k. You need a Bimmersport sticker Isis.

Why does Bimmersport not have a spotted thread that people can stalk* out other members like I just have.

*disclaimer. Sorry if the word "stalk" offends anyone, I used it as a joke.

I had been thinking about a stickied official "Spotted" thread too. This can be it :)

I think there used to be a proper spotted thing under the off-topic section, this is going back like 4 -5 years ago now though haha, I have been here far too long...

Me and brook(fromhamilton) were crusing down to motorway towards Hamilton last night between 10 and 11 and Brook spotted another E30 touring - silver in colour. Anyone from here? Graham? The Hellbm car? Id like to know who you were because you had rear fog lights on and it wasnt foggy!!! Naughty naughty :o:P

Not me. I have dumped mine in the corner of the garage and disconnected the battery like some old sloppy girlfriend who stopped putting out and replaced it with a much much younger and fitter frenchie! Plus if my car was visible I would never have any fog lights on.

Could have been my cars long lost brother, hell BM’s old one…

I saw a very nice green E30 on gold BBS RSs on Albert St in AK city on about Thursday night at approx going home time. I thought I remembered the plate but can't find it on carjam.

Was hot. Great combo.

Cool. Haven’t seen one of those since the 80’s.

There was a very tidy burgundy 84/50ci with some very tasty BBS 17†RS’s parked ileagally at the Airport drop off zone last night. Looked good.
