Aha! so that's the secret red M-Tech II ! Looks so hot man... What sort of interior does it have? Black leather or hounds tooth? Best of luck selling your car and upgrading! Feeling better and better about this deal, can't wait to close it.

neg on SMG man, avoid it at all costs EDIT: p.s. E46 M3 Engine... your bloody mad! Shotgun ride when it's done !

Good on ya mate. I was lucky enough to get a ride in one of these beasts at one of the track days (thanks Ron!) and it was just something else... Enjoy it!

Sold the old semi slicks so now have a bit of "extra car funds" to splurge on some goodies once the E30 arrives .

So much WIN So now you have 3 sets of mags?

SOLD. Good luck with those lap times Jason ! Riley... better watch your back now.

Keeeeeen for one of those!

As per title, anyone know where I can source a nice shiny leather gater + gear knob? Cheers, Atta

Cool, will get in touch asap

Cheers for the offer man but that is just far too low.

I got shotgun on any spares!

Love it Keen to see it at the next meet!

Hehe, I do have a reputation to uphold

Cheers man, won't count all my chickens just yet but I am || close now to having an E30

Don't say that! But hey, you know me Simon I like having all sorts of shoes for all sorts of occasions. Anyhow, I rang him this morning and since I have seen it he has gotten it fully serviced, chucked on a 12 month rego, fixed the minor crack in the dash and re upholsterered both front seats with brand new cloth! So yeh, after all that I really would be mad not to take it so I did, should be picking it up this weekend if all goes well

Sure man, I am going to check it out as soon as he replies to my message... Never seen an E30 M3 in the flesh (excluding race cars)

Previous owner probably was an avid track fan and did not want to feel like he was on a slip and slide? I know my old leather seats were shocking on the track, would have given and arm and a leg for the alacantra/cloth alternative.

Paint is mint (no fading/bubbling etc) but nearly every panel has some form of a slight ding/scratch in it, and the front is stone chipped as usual. Rust free apart from the sun roof where I noticed a bit of bubbling, it's confined to the actual sun roof not the car body so worst case I have to replace the sun roof bit only. Hell Henry probably has a spare one for me

Cheers for the feedback guys. Hopefully everything goes well and I will have another project thread opened up soon

Hehe, well if I don't end up going ahead with it I will forward it on! Hopefully find out by tomorrow.

Was tipped off by the mechanics who did a pre-purchase inspection for me. I did not really take the TradeMe examples seriously as I think they are dreaming especially considering their condition. I know what Tech-I's are selling for, but I have never seen a Tech-II sell recently (probably because they are so rare) hence my reluctance. Judging from what has been said so far, the man is asking for a very reasonable price "9k and not a penny less". But as I mentioned the car is not faultless. It could really use a fresh coat of paint all around and some cosmetic work here and there. The big plus is that the engine is solid as a rock form what I hear. Hmmm

Not exactly on TradeMe but you get the idea. After searching high and low for the perfect E30, the following example is the best I have come across. If he would budge on the price I would have bought it off him ages ago but I feel he is asking a bit much. Was hoping to get a better idea of what you guys think this is worth. Details: Manual NZ New 240,000 km Hounds tooth interior, no rips. Full service history & immacculately maintained by BMW fanatic (enthusiast would be an understatement) Could use a fresh coat of paint but still in very good nick Lachssliber-metalic

Oh how I miss the track Looks like you had a real ball Riley.

Someone buy my semi slicks already... 17" R888's
