Thanks for the tip. The last few I have seen sold for 5-6k and they were also kept very well. (I'll admit, prepared to go a little higher than that). Not saying the car isn't excellent, I'm just not prepared to pay almost double for the 'immaculate' factor. *edited to make sense

Hi all, on the lookout for a tidy e21 323i. Must be rust free, decent mechanical condition, any colour, without sunroof is preferred. Thanks, Berj

No offence to the seller, but he's absolutely dreaming with that price. E21's are no where near that collectable, give it another 5 years.. maybe. It's definitely had a partial respray, who knows what's underneath, ding above the rear bumper indicates some sort of hit in the past and there's a difference in paint quality from the boot lid above.

Hi all, Looking for a m52b28 crank, must be from an early (single vanos) engine. Happy to pay for shipping etc. Cheers, Berj

edit: sorry wrong subforum, mods please delete.

I'm shamed to say it would be purchased only for the engine - to go in the e21. Unfortunately the only decent engines I've found are in roadworthy cars these days.

I'd be interested in the head if you were willing to split.

The car was dereg due to rust. I've taken some cuts off it for my car but there's decent metal left. Someone's already shown interest in taking the lot but I'll let you know if it doesn't work out. Thanks

Bump.. Would like most of these bits repurposed before the shell goes to to scrap. $20 per item/any item, let me know what you need.

With the e21 motor on it's last legs, I think we need a bit of an upgrade. Looking for a m20b25, do not need dressings but the basics are necessary (alt, pulleys etc). I am not intending to rebuild so would like a reasonably tidy piece, rather just throw the carb on and plug into the old e21 harness. So I think a pfl motor is necessary to allow this, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Cheers! Berj

As mentioned above, the alarm is only ever as good as the installer. Find one (installer that is) with a good reputation and you're set. Otherwise, all brands are fairly similar and opinions vary on all of them

Don't think I could turn down an M3 either mate, you made the right choice, doesn't mean you can't add an e21 eventually though! That's the one man, it's my only car/daily so you'll see it parked around often. They're deceptively light too, 1000-1100 kgs depending on trim! Would like to get a LSD at some point, have heard of people retrofitting e36 small case diffs. Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks mate, clean & simple was always the intention! Love what you're doing to the e28.
