Mikal 4 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 Its been such a long time since my last visit to bimmersport but I am back because i recently just sold the 318i e30. Now I'm looking to spend around $4500 on the next car, preferably another BMW so if any one has something they want sold around that price, let me know. I'm after something tidy, most likely an E34 525i, could go E36 but want at least a 2.5l or maybe a tidy modified E30. just post a pic and description...

Mikal 4 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 I would prefer to move on from E30s though, and I want power so 2.5l is what I'm mostly after Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mikal 4 Report post Posted January 11, 2009 not to bad , not much worse than a 525i or 325i. pretty high geared . usees a good amount of torque to hold speed . What panels do you have to replace on the car? and after they are on, what sort of body work is needed to get it tidy looking? I'm still pretty interested in this one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm still pretty interested in this one i have 4 good doors , bonnet , guards , boot lid with spoiler , sun roof panel . then you will only have to paint the roof and rear quarters . also have option of 540i front brake ducts(that fit to front bumper) , or getting another mtec front bumper from a local wrecker(grey colour)some pics of the donar panels Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
