Charliegordon85 0 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 Hi, I was wondering if before purchasing an e30 I could take it to any mechanic to get it checked out or if it has to be one that specialises is classic cars. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nick496 268 Report post Posted November 1, 2019 I would think any independent bmw mechanic would be able to sort you out, and there are a number up in Auckland. These days though, it's less about the mechanical bits, and more any rust that I'd be concerned about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gjm 3191 Report post Posted November 2, 2019 Obviously depends where in Auckland, but try SJ @BMTHUG at Apex Auto on Porana Road. He's a good guy, and has owned and looked after E30s for many years. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have been nothing but helpful to my families 5x E30s and highly regarded in the E30 race series. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a story behind this. Might be best relayed by PM, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry - wasn't trying to be cryptic, I got a ppi from them that missed a lot of stuff that would have stopped me buying the car. They were very nice to deal with. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
