Andrews M325i

Recommended Posts

About a month ago i sold my 327i sedan and purchased another E30. 

I was on the hunt for a genuine M325i for a long time and found this beauty its had an extensive service history and came with 17inch Alpina (Kopi Rep) wheels.It may look familiar to some of the older members as it was CRZARBs (Atta’s) car.

Enjoy the photos :)

Next day i removed the stickers, gave it a good clean and polish. This car is immaculate, drives like a dream but just wanted to add my own touches.

Things I have done: 

- Suede Alcantara wheel (from my old E30)

- Genuine 16 inch AC Schnitzer wheels 

- Painted the valve cover 

- Changed Diff/Gearbox oil (Redline)

Nice!

What do you think of the B8s? What springs are you running with them?

Any photos of it on them?

Thanks

I thought the car drove well before but the Bilsteins made the ride nice and tight, I’m running factory Mtech springs.

Nice. It reminds me of my old E30, it was running a tech2 rear spoiler with the same RS's in 15x7 15x8 and T1R's

Your BBS R033's look amazing! Do you have spacers? If so what size? I have RS033's the won't clear the brake caliper. Also are those 1.5" and 2.5" lips?

Thanks @Sammo

@catchuk no spacers are fitted to these photos, weird how yours don’t fit mine are just straight bolt on. Yes they are 1.5 & 2.5 inch lips. 

No real updates of the car as its in long term container storage while we get our house built

How much was the new windscreen and where from if you don’t mind me asking? Was it one colour or with a top tint?
