huff3r 347 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) For sale is my 1985 BMW 320i Manual. It has some pretty major rust in the firewall, but still drives well (although the viscous fan needs replacing). Rego on Hold WoF Expired November 2012 Located Hamilton. -Interior is currently in pieces a bit as I went looking to see how bad the rust was. Exterior - 4 door sedan - Bronzitbeige, w/ slight crease in the bonnet, and various small dents. Largely straight however. - Sunroof, some rust bubbles - TSW Stealth wheels, an odd set with fronts 15x7, and rears 16x7.5. Tyres have good tread, and are 205/50 all round making the rear rolling diameter 1" bigger. - Lowered on king springs in the front, standard in the rear. Comes with rear kings, and standard fronts too, however rear kings are not captive on standard shocks. -BMW Original towbar Drivetrain - M20B20, runs well, although quite noisy (tappets). Viscous fan is shot and needs replacing, but car was not overheated. - 5-speed manual g/box seems good, although shifter is floppy like most E30s. Good for manual conversion? - 325i exhaust, very nice note to it, without being too loud. Interior - Mtech 1 steering wheel (leather removed as it was torn, still have it if you want it to make a pattern to recover) - Has the better looking gearknob, and boot is not torn - Seats poor condition, quite torn - Glovebox reasonable condition, catch works - Radio is a BMW Business RDS stereo, displays radio station names and current song playing (if available) - JVC 6" rear speakers - Dash has cracks as usual - Toolkit is almost complete - Original BMW jack Yours for only $1000!

huff3r 347 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 Bummer Getting another? One day... tempted to keep all the good bits, but they are the only bits that are worth anything! The falcon is close enough to a BMW though right? And I needa job before I get any more cars!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kevinator9 57 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Heh pilot training is expensive enough even without an E30 hanging off your back Edited January 26, 2013 by kevinator9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huff3r 347 Report post Posted January 27, 2013 Heh pilot training is expensive enough even without an E30 hanging off your back Far too true, although the training is all but done with the CPL achieved 10th Jan. But hopefully this will make someone else's mediocre Auto E30 into a minter! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

huff3r 347 Report post Posted January 28, 2013 Nice work on he CPL! Massey runs a little slower Guess I get a degree though... Wouldn't want to pull the blower fan out for me would ya? I'd prefer to sell it whole as I kinda just want it gone, but I'll see how it goes... Ask again in a month haha, I might change my mind Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

huff3r 347 Report post Posted February 1, 2013 Bump! Anybody? I can take some more pics of the rust etc if anybody wants, although I'm pretty sure it's terminal. Otherwise I will be parting out if it isn't sold whole. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kevinator9 57 Report post Posted February 1, 2013 How terminal is the rust? Is it just the firewall? I would say it could be as cheap as $200 to fix (cut out and new plate welded)... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huff3r 347 Report post Posted February 1, 2013 How terminal is the rust? Is it just the firewall? I would say it could be as cheap as $200 to fix (cut out and new plate welded)... The passengers floor and the firewall that I've found so far, but coupled with a leaky heater and a busted fan clutch it seems uneconomical to repair. Rego is still on hold though. I have a new car already, so don't really have the funds to fix (unless AirNZ comes knocking on the door!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
