  1. if E30s are looked after they make great dailys, as this one has. ive been dailying an E30 for close on four years, this one for the last two months or so, and lots of people do. i can get around 650per tank, though i dont let it get to the bottom of the tank. maintenence parts are pretty cheap if they fail as well. Can take more photos, what would you like photos of?
  2. that it would. its asking for John's M50 conversion, but its not getting it, already have a semi working twincam i dont need another lol
  3. someone out and about in Daddys SL500 on the motorway tonight. seemed pretty deliberate catching me and my humble 318i up, slowing to my legal speed, and then tearing off again before i could see who was driving. anyone?
  4. yeap + M325i springs front and rear, rear sway bar (not on 320i and 318i usually) and i think the front sway bar is thicker than the regular unit but dont quote me. edit: and the koni's or bilsteins or whatever it is thats factory on the M325i facelifts, would say bilsteins, they are yellow everything on this car is put on from the factory unless specified in the original post.
  5. have my eye on something yeah. if i get it then the silver E30 has to go. registering/warrenting/insuring one car is enough, and ill have to do the black E30 eventually too. cant jusitfy 3 road cars really would thought there would be more interest in this. Price too high??
  6. bump might end up with three cars anyway for now. heart set. damn
  7. black tech2 on gold weave style (probably BBS) for sale next to Trentham Park, just up the road from my house! pity i had passengers or i would have stopped and had a look!
  8. ill have a burbon for you later hope you have had a great day!
  9. have been watching this for a few months, told him a few times id take the diff and he can sell the rest to make up the $500, but he wasnt keen
  10. on an E34 pfl 520i M20B20 Manual, is the gearbox the same Getrag 240 as found on the back of E30 f/ 320i?
  11. labour comes at a price... his dads 635CSi
  12. ..and who are ya gunna ask if its dead ;P good to see ya joined! Andy
  13. my thoughts exactly. E90s are round, laurels are a box. should have used an E34 front or something, but then you might as well just use an E34 as the whole thing, they probably are the same size as a Laurel
  14. im sure many people have. google it? money could be spent better on other aspects of the car if it was me but hey lol
  15. well i do have the cash to pick up what i have my eye on, so if your serious and would be willing to put down a deposit now then that could be arranged. Havent had the car checked out yet..
  16. true but it listed about 3 of those country steps at once
  17. have the black leather (kinda..) door cards for a 4 door if you want them? also have them in the coupe, which i may be willing to swap out for fabric ones if you are desperate. its just a daily ha
  18. actually just had a thought, may be best to text/call me, as my inbox is quite full of peoples adresses for the europlate buy so i cant delete them. Number is 0273079322. churr
  19. Hey guys. have only had the car a short while but something has caught my eye. definately not wanting to sell this car, but i do already have an E30 and three cars is madness... The Good: - 89 E30 318i - NZ New - Full Tech2 body kit - Sport seats - 15" Weaves - Lachssilber - Coupe - M40B18 Manual, open short ratio diff (would say 4.1 at a guess) - Motorsport suspension - Sunroof - Rareish Leather wheel, have heard it called the SE wheel (not tech1 or tech2) - One of 7 in this spec from the factory, verified a few weeks ago when i went to the dealer to find out - All electrics work, including the fan working on all 4 settings!! - Almost completely factory built, only modifications are an aftermarket headerback exhaust (no cat + sports muffler, its not loud and doesnt sound like your typical straight four), pair of rear speakers, a CD headunit, a set of german (NZ replicas) plates and a bimmersport.co.nz sticker - Most economical car ive ever owned, not hard when the list involves Volvos and Ladas, but hey ha. get around 650kms from the 55 liter approx tank - Pretty quick for what it is. seems quicker than my M20B20 manual for some reason, and that had a 4.45 diff :S far far quicker than my mates 318i auto as well The not so good - dash cracked - headunit could do with replacement, skips my CDs, could be the CDs fault to be fair ha. - has had rust cut out of it, filler has cracked and could do with a touch up. inspected and still rust free so havent acted as yet. spoiler could do with a respray while you are at it. Would sort this for the right price - 274xxx kms, but you wouldnt think its done half that from driving it, obviously been looked after - Seats and gearknob have seen better days, due to milage will be after $4000 ono. will add detail/answer questions etc. can take more photos if needed etc Cheers Andy more photos next page

  21. so your say that covrvettes traction control doesnt cut the throttle like it does in BMWs?
