just sent the E30 320i to the big scrap heap

Recommended Posts

just finished pulling apart the e30 320iA . and had the boys from bobs take it away car services and send it to the great melting pot .

what a shame it didn't have any rust on the body .

picked up two E32 7 series today .

one 1989 735iL grey ex japan , black leather etc . and a 1992 730i V8 ex singapore gray ,black leather etc .

both repo's no key's . I started the V8 . and the 735i doesn't go (maybe headgasget).

towed both cars behind the 88 535i 5spd . trailer about 300kg plus 1600kg approx per car . my car is rated to tow 1500kg braked .

the first car i towed had no problem . went back to pick up the 735i and had the brakes on the trailer jamming on ,had lots of smoke then fire comming from the brakes .lots of fun .

the 730i v8 ,will probably get that sorted out wof ,reg clean etc . not sure with the 735iL might need a new engine (which i happen to have sitting around) but not sure if i have the time or the want to do it.

yea it runs , but how good . (a little smoke ) hasn't been run for about 6-11mths so when i get the keys i will take for a good drive to clean out the cobwebs . the guy nether paid a cent on the finance .they chased the car for about a year before getting it .

the m30 i think might be junk . i think it might have had a blown headgasget and the last owner just kept topping up the water and kept on cooking it .

has spark but very wet plugs(fuel) , very pitted and looks like water condensation on 1 or 2 of them . couldn't get a decent compression reading on a couple of the cylinders , looks like oil/water leaking out between the head and the block.

will have a closer look when i have some time .
