This pretty rad E30 325i Wagon. Manual, cloth interior, AC Schnitzer wheels, yes please.

That old chestnut. Whats it been doing all these years of not being used? How many hours are on the engine? Whats the service history like, have all the perished rubber bits been replaced? Low KM is a have use by sellers to ask higher prices from people that want bragging rights.

I've started using npd's 100+. From the terapa outlet there definitely isn't 8.2-10+% ethanol. My means of testing is the car cruising in steady state with no ethanol petrol gives me 15.4 afr. With gull 98 (e10?) I see 16.0+ afr (gauge only reads to 16.0). With npd I've been seeing 15.4. This is an open loop system. The ecu doesn't see any feedback from O2 sensor or knock sensor(doesn't have knock sensors). Don't get me wrong this isn't a lab test. I'm sure other variables come into play. But from my limited knowledge I don't believe there is ethanol in their fuel. Interested to see what deteriorates with the fuel. There are signs up warning about plastic fuel tanks and other stuff. Will pay more attention next time

Very interesting, makes sense I guess. And yes, it is ironic. One of the sellers that I’ve talked to said he bought his house for 15k back in the day. Haha, I will, I will.

No thanks! There was a very tidy and well maintained 328i manual that sold for 14k. Heck there was a well maintained 4dr e30 325i auto that didn’t sell at the same price.

Soon we’ll have to start an ‘Is this where the e36 market is’ thread

I mean you can tell it is mint, but if a dealer wants to put a $20k price tag on a 325i auto, regardless of kms, they could at least do a paint correction on it...

Oh I don't disagree. I just blew 11 grand on a clutch. The biggest cost on my E60 M5 was the depreciation when I sold it, followed closely by the fuel bill. Only had to spend a few grand on in during my ownership.
