Several variants of tank, I might have a used one ,depending on the type. otherwise new you'll either have genuine BMW $$$$ or aftermarket , Some aftermarket ones have minor issues , what I don't mention in this video is the filler neck requires some adjustment as it fouls on the subframe , however I suppose it is a cheaper option.

Hi Arata you mention cleaning the tank. Rust in the fuel tank perhaps? if there is any rust you will need to address that issue firstly

2008 335i NZ New 130,000 km approx $15900 location Marton , Rangitikei 021651591 For sale is our meticulously maintained 335i Convertible, a New Zealand New Motorsport edition. This vehicle has only covered a low 130,000kms and comes with a VTNZ warrant and registration. This car has undergone extensive mechanical refurbishment and maintenance to ensure it's in top-notch condition. Both of the turbo cores have been overhauled, and the inlets have been walnut media blasted for optimal performance. A new rocker cover has been installed, and the PCV system has been modified, including the runners blanked to prevent typical N54 issues of oiling up inlets. To ensure the best possible performance, we've installed twin catch cans for both high and low sides. The transmission has been thoroughly serviced - the mechatronic unit has been removed, new case and bridge seals have been fitted, and a new pan has been installed. Also performed a full power flush with genuine ZF oil. The engine has been given a thorough inspection, with all Cam ledges removed and checked. Cam ledge seals have been upgraded, from the steel styled, to the superseded PTFE OEM BMW replacements to prevent ledge wear. All 24 valve guide seals have been replaced to ensure piece of mind . During our ownership, we've also fitted new Hankook Tyres and installed a new battery Various coolant pipes, power steer pulley and tensioner Its also worth noting this car has already been modified with Catless downpipes and Coby muffler system. This 335i Convertible is the hardtop type Convertible as opposed to the conventional rag top and it's water tight. I've extensively photographed the repairs done to this vehicle and they are available for the new owner, There is no money owing on this vehicle and a vehicle check has been provided in the Auction. To clarify the previous owner didn't keep the registration current, and the plates lapsed and subsequently has had it re-registered. A factory recall is up-to-date that has been completed by BMW .We are currently using the vehicle over summer and the mileage may increase slightly.

Jono51 replied to E30 325i Rag-Top's topic in TradeMe discussions
Bidding has certainly crept past the part car status , even at the time of your post at roughly 11k You'll be surprised what can be repaired , it's all about economical value,skill and parts availability Even as a disclosed write off repaired M325i I'd expect a book value of $35k - $40k It could potentially be a good entry level into M325i ownership, as the ships sailing with good examples fetching 50 to 60k I wouldn't rely too much on the ownership quantity of E30s or a wheel alignment as a skillful judgement , Chassis time, chassis measure and a repair certifier will be the new owners priority. Edit* If anyone would require parts, I've got plentiful available, and Or needing assistance in the lower to central north island with the actual repair . Let me know 😀 -

At that price it appears it might be going back on the Road . Hopefully it will be repaired, And... I've got front cuts and lots of other parts if anyone does buy it with the intention to repair -

Some hard to find manual parts for M40 316i or 318i facelift , that may give you a headstart in converting an E30 to manual ,all of which is pictured in the first image. Gearbox G240 Driveshaft M40 318i or 316i Flywheel and clutch M40 The last image shows a sample of oil I've drained , with no obvious metallic silver -just aged oil Keeping it honest..I've not driven this one ,have no idea of Kms,and condition, hence sold as a parts only basis "as is" $1500 firm Located in Marton , which is near Whanganui I could potentially help get this to Wellington, ,Hamilton, or Auckland 021651591
