Guest Jonty Report post Posted May 17, 2004 Yep the wifes giving me greif about driving the van, so I am looking for an e30, no smaller than an 320i and definately 5 speed, preferably a coupe, I will give the wife the e36 to drive and this will be mine, unless I spot a good 318/316 which I could buy for the wife. If anyone has one for sale or knows where a good one is give us a shout, at this point I don't want to spend more than $7k. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted May 17, 2004 What about this one. http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....?showtopic=1142 Spend another $1500 (or there abouts) converting it to 5 spd, and you will have one good 5spd E30 320i. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted May 17, 2004 Exactly Grant. You could get it for 1/2 your budget!! And with the other 1/2 you could put a M50 in there!! Drop me a line if you want to have a look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jonty Report post Posted May 18, 2004 Cheers Guys I want to avoid the conversion drama if I can, but if the car is as mint as it sounds I may be keen anyway, did you manage to get any pics? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted May 18, 2004 Cheers Guys I want to avoid the conversion drama if I can There was no real drama for me in the conversion. I dropped my car off on a Wednesday, drove away in a loner, returned Friday afternoon, and drove away in my new 5spd version of my car.It happened as though it was done by magic (which also magically lightened my wallet).
