@bmwclassic what a beauty

Solid use of a 320i
-
Very nice! E91 LCI is my favourite BMW wagon. In the right colour on LMs with an N55 and a Supersprint- great work!

Haha, just came to post this before seeing your post!

Is This Where The E30 Market Is Now..?

Was $20k in 2020, $30k in 2021 and $40k in 2020. -
Is This Where The E30 Market Is Now..?

Might be up your alley? https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-3460384945.htm -
Car got a mini overhaul this week with @BMTHUG - Timing belt & tensioner / drive belts, water pump / thermostat / coolant / crank seal / rocker cover gasket / rocker shaft seals / spark plugs and Valve adjustment. Car is running great, little smoother, bit less chattery and perhaps even a placebo 2.5whp. Just gotta do my fluids then time to get on with suspension, interior, wheels and cosmetic stuff.

Or you could buy this E24 for $170,000 and use the $40,000 leftover to buy an 1987 318i Sedan. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/m6/listing/3457422795

Awesome, hard to beat the E type as a base!

I had a little chuckle to myself when I realised my 389,000km E30's odometer wasn't working 🤣 Need to fix it for the 400,000km Photo Op. -

$22K if its tidy. I wouldn't be paying through the nose on a 'low kms' E30 as it basically just means its been sitting around with rotting rubber or the odometer is broken. -
@E28E30 Its Red though!
-
So many cylinders and turbos
-
4 doors may be stiffer but 2 doors create more stiffness IMO
-
Watched the top gear video on this yesterday - amazing car - the engine noises! crazy that its a Z4 coupe underneath. 'Best' BMW ever I would be voting for E9 CSL / E30 M3 Sport Evo / E46 M3 CS or CSL with 3 pedals. Either that or a E90 320i.

Kiwi specs on cars are always a bit odd - can always spot NZ new GTIs for example as they have the uprated alloys but never Xenon’s
-
And up pops one that looks to be worth it. Shame its not one of the louder colours but white E36's are rare enough and look great. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/3453238373?bof=7OhyAXKn Don't see many this clean and original.
-
Nice work, I think these look absolutely sensational with hardtop up in a dark colour. Hate to think what your old Dino GTS might be worth now!
-
Dude, you are crushing it! awesome work - I do love an E46 wagon, wouldn't mind picking up one as a daily later in the year but my wife needs something to tow a horse float 😑
-
Central and North Shore, the E30 appeal is universal 🤣
-
@E28E30 So clean!! The iS / SE bodykit is so classy. You and @adro need a joint photoshoot 😎
-
You can hang out with it again next week haha 😎
-
Cool, its probably not a bad time to buy right now, being summer and with quite a few people trying to 'cash in' on the market - a lot more choice than when I was looking in October / November. E46 sold in a few days fortunately and is currently funding the E30 project. Absolutely loving the E30 life - car needs plenty to get it to where I want it but is still really usable and fun as is and it certainly doesn't hurt when random people yell out "nice car sir" / take pics of it 🤣

Nice, what model are you looking at? As with any old car, would suggest having at least 25% of the cars purchase price set aside for catching up on deferred maintenance.
