Doing up my 86 320i

Recommended Posts

I have had this car for 13 years and love it too death, dark green 1986 E30 320i, but it is looking and feeling a bit old specially in comparison to driving my 1999 E39 540, but as I said it's got some history with us so is deserved of some TLC.

It is a bit wallowy (all over the place) in the suspension and steering so any recommendation in this area too remedy this that won't break the bank will be appreciated.

Also can anyone recommend a good panelbeater/paintshop in Wellington to check out and remove some rust, panel beating on a few small dents and do a reasonably priced paintjob.

Regards Huttey

sorry I actually started typing something out a day or so ago but forgot to post.

Get some new shocks and springs to start with. Also as suggested replace your bushings and front shock top mounts.

This will help a ton with handling.

Also look into your rims and tires ..

You may even be up for a 2.5 m20 conversion ?

panel and paint I can't help with in the welly area sorry
