Everyone has that story haha, like my E34 540iS factory manual and lsd, techno violet, sold for 12k around the same time I think. -
Purrs like a 200 year old sewing machine IMG_0631.MOV

I’m like 90% trying to call in a favour to see what it failed the last Wof on it’s possible the age, oil light, and failure to crank were the reasons for sale.
-
Ah,that’s the level sensor, I need to find the pressure sender
-
Cancel that, wire is attached impedance to block is 0.4ohm, ish
-
Okay, it started fine, 2 cranks, not bad fir 4 years off the road, has sufficient oil, but the check oil light doesn’t go off. If it’s the attached, the wire has broken off the sender, it’s loose as heck inside the boot and doesn’t feel attached
-
For my reference https://www.mye28.com/viewtopic.php?t=100967 also looks like pin 11 (starter external) and pin 15 (ignition power) failing that probably 14 (Battery Power)
-
No crank, nothing when I the. The key, all other electrics are fine
-
Sell it to me, what do you see as the real buying point? if it doesn’t run or drive, that’s probably a not buying point.
-
No it's all good, really goes to show that there is quite the difference on the upspec these days
-
Rego is on hold, Is it worth a punt at $1500?
-
Is the right one the billet?
-
It may not actually be dereg, I’m pleading with them to give it to me for what it cost them, plus what it would sell scrap, they just slice, rip, crush and export
-
I’m talking to them, maybe rescue it myself, nice cruiser since the E30 is gonna not be built to cruise
-
This looks like it had a lot of love, to get to this kind of mileage in this kind of condition. It’s Auto. It just rolled into the wreckers yard over the road. Runs and drives, dereg, no idea what’s actually wrong with it, for someone to scrap it. It’ll be getting chopped up in a couple of days, so if anyone is interested, speak now, or forever hold your peace. I love the shape, but this one will be a labour of love for someone I expect.

Passed in at 4K with 181 auction watchers, even I am now questioning the value (to anyone but me)
-
@gjm what on gods earth is that
-
I have begun telephone communications
-
Ohhhhh I want it, only thing cooler than an E30 is an E24 change my mind.

Wow, with these prices on E30’s I don’t know if I’m better to garage, modify, or swap mine for something more comfortable and safe. -

You know i thought v8’s would fry handling due to weight bias moving so far forwards.. would you believe a 1UZFE (165kg) is actually 10KG lighter than an M20B25 (175kg) an M60B40 clocks in at 208kg. -
Holy heck, that’s a lot of car for the money. What kind of misery can the next owner anticipate? I really thought M + Manual + V8 = High Resale
