E30 325i Rag-Top

I’m not sure how interchangeable the gearboxes are on these, but it could be a good buy for the manual swap bits of the price stays low enough. As for the bumper damage story - yeah right!

Click on the link and it tells you. $24.5k inc buyers premium. Well under estimate.

The Alpina sold, the 650i didn’t (no surprise) and the M325i sold after the auction.

There used to be a TradeMe vendor with that, or a very similar name, that used to list a few “odd ball” BMWs for well above market value, and get very snarky in the Q&A when people called him out on it. Got a bit out of hand at one point with a listing for an MCoupe I think it was and then they dissappeared for a bit from TM.

Oh dear. And I see it’s our old “friend” 1quad1 back again. Thought they had got chucked off TradeMe..?

Ze Germans were pretty organised when it came to the holes and they are in the same place for most of the E30 spoilers. As SJ says the SE Lip and bigger Tech I lip both fit in the same holes. The SE is fairly common and can be got quite cheap, the Tech I is rare and expensive.

Surprised it hasn’t got a tow-bar on it so it can haul a boat / caravan / trailer. It is truly eye-opening how many models are offered across all the markets in the world, and options. We only see a very small percentage of them here in NZ.

Shiny bits starting to come back from the painters! Re-assembly time, with kid gloves so nothing gets scratched or marked. Excited!!

Spotted this beauty at one of the dealers, in for a service, was absolutely spotless! And it’s a genuine Turbo, brought over from the UK I understand. So, so cool!

@Financial_Ruins needs a price for Bimmersporters please as per forum rules. I know there is a price on the TradeMe listing, but should also have the “Bimmersport” price in the thread.

Hello Bimmersporters, There has been a rash of personal messages sent to users who have posted in the Want To Buy section. They are all of the same type, from a new user suggesting to contact an email address for the part requested. Looks very much like scammer behaviour, so user has been blocked, and putting this up as a warning in case we get any more. Be vigilant, stay safe. Cheers.

That brown interior is certainly very “challenging” and having a mis-matched drivers seat (colour and pattern) doesn’t improve the look at all.

The peak is the Stone Island sticker on the door, well known as the Football Hooligans uniform, tops even the fake brakes!

Bought from Ray at HellBM, top service and top bloke! Highly recommended.
