10k covers the mismatched seats and black one is smg. One thing I learnt having just sold and buying a new house is that buyers are liers. There are what people think its worth but they aren't the ones buying. The ones buying know how much but keep tight lipped on it.

Seen this a few times around town whilst on dealer plates. Nice car but 68k is a lot

I think e36 rear shocks have a m3 stamped on them. Ive got a full rear end in storage which I can check once we move to the new house

M60b44 is a m62 block with m60 heads

Bmw has the Guinness world record for the longest drift in one of these so they are certainly built for this type of abuse. Every promotional video for any M car has them drifting etc. AMG has drift mode, there's not a top gear episode where someone isn't drifting something, they are built for this type of thing. I think it was on here that someone once wrote e30s are like girlfriends. You know your not the first but it's not nice seeing someone else giving her a thrashing

Only America offered them. But this is nothing like an m5. And with 535is available for 15k odd, certainly not worth it in a car like this

Is This Where The E30 Market Is Now..?
Gaz replied to E30 325i Rag-Top's topic in TradeMe discussions
Pretty reasonable pricing I feel. Looking at £2000 for some Alpinas and at $600+ for an unfurbished steering wheel, $850 for one ready to go, it's probably worth it -

I'm not sure I agree.. IMO price has nothing to do with it being an enthusiasts vehicle. Where they still a enthusiasts vehicle when they were $500 and being cut up and thrashed? Or were they cars for Bogans then? I look at porsche as the ultimate enthusiasts vehicle, not that I've ever driven one but will never be able to afford one but doesn't stop it being a vehicle for enthusiasts -

Haha it's a hard one bro, I wouldn't let the e30 go for less than 30k which gets a e60 m5, c63. Throw the e36 wagon in and I'm looking at e46 m3s etc.. the tempt is real Nothing truer... I was waiting on a facelift vert, paid 10k for one 6ish years ago which was alot at the time but now looks like a bargain -

I've been thinking this today as I've just been given a company car so having two cars sit at home all week isn't that practical. Logic says sell the e30 and e36, and buy a replacement, cashing in on current market rates but could I do it? Not sure... -

What's the fault? Don't know anyone personally in Auckland but currys suggestion of Eurosurgeon is a good one, only heard good things.

I wonder if the 60k vert will change his price based on this listing

Anyone found those photos hard on the eyes?

I brought my vert sight unseen, just really wanted a facelift vert. Only issue it had was with the roof but there's been a few niggly things thats failed since but otherwise happy. Also brought a e30m50 off a bloke on here, also fine. Sometimes just luck of the draw -
Yeah the car itself is identical but the adblue system is horrible design and when it goes tits up, it's a shocker. Deleting it is the best way, not exactly legal anymore however

Whatever you do, stay away from imported 'blue performance' ones

I think he might struggle, was on trademe for $8k a long time and no one snapped it up

After the earthquakes here in Christchurch had plenty of cracked rims on x5s running 20s but wasnt just a bmw thing, all brands suffered here

You can still get front bumpers I think new, but slowly but surely, the rest of the parts are going NLA

Seller is on here although not very often. He had it up for sale a few years ago and not a bite. Maybe cause it's a 4 door?
