Would've been easier to cut the tags and fit them to a clean shell? "Joking" 😆

This is epic, for a daily in a modern world this is just so cool. We are approaching a time where things like this conversion make sense, and the finish is great without being over the top. Obviously not cheap, but then nothing like this is ever going to be.

Hello, WBAAB320700857376 325i sport UK edition. Recently acquired. Great info in here, love the history.

Yup its very simple. It is illegal. Sinister purposes or just trying to save a car. You are not allowed to swap a Vin number. That vehicle should be registered as a 318i.

Just because many other classic cars have been reshelled in the past doesn't make it good or legal. It's illegal, and shouldn't be on the road. There is nothing to say the 318i shell isn't from a stolen car (no history of where that shell came from, just that it was a 318i), and if anyone in authority (wof inspector, certifier, police etc) can prove the tags don't match the shell, it's 100% game over, you would probably have to reshell it again, properly. It's no different to my M328i, which was a full M3 conversion into a 328i shell. I couldn't just plate and tag it (like this e30), it had to remain registered as a 328i and be certified for the modifications.

It's not new but put a sim driver in a real car? Not sure how much IRL drifting he's done.

Swaps?
