WTB: E30 325i, 323i or 318i (manual, low ks)

[NZ944 2]

Hello,

I have been a member here for 7 years but have yet to own a BMW! Looking to change that now.

I am looking for a really nice E30, and am willing to pay for it.

Preferably:

- 325i, but will consider 323i/318i too.

- Manual (a must)

- Low ks.. relatively

- Stock standard (or very subtle tasteful mods)

- Service history would be nice

- Body must be in good condition (ie. no rust or damage)

- Everything else in relatively good condition (for its age)

I may be dreaming, but if you are out there, send me a PM or reply here.

If you are wondering who its going to, I am a car and driving enthusiast who loves daily driving Euros. I have owned: Mercedes 190E 2.3, Mercedes 320E, Porsche 944, Porsche 944 Turbo, Peugeot 205 GTI 1.9, VW Golf VR6. I service and work on my own cars (up to a certain difficulty). I like to keep them stock or close to it.

Thanks for reading!

I realize this isnt exactly what youre after but its a reasonably cheap good buy if you throw a manual in it.

1990 325i SE ( Map light mirror, Side skirts, sport select, headlight adjusters etc etc )
Auto
Wof / Reg
NZ New, I am 2nd owner
290,000ks
Cambelt/wpump/thermostat etc done under 1000ks ago.
Head has been acid dipped, crack tested, hardness tested, valves refaced blah blah blah and it has minor porting and a funky cam that makes it go like the clappers

Regarding the damage to the drivers side, According to the last owner ( guy in his 60s ) it was kicked in by some " Hooligans "
But it will be tidied up before sale with a combo of tidy second hand doors and paintless repairs/touching up the wee paint imperfections.

Pretty much, Euroriffic and I trailered it back from Winton last year and have chipped away at it since then. Currently I daily drive it but as I am going overseas and Euroriffic has no need for another car its gota go.

Thinking $3000 ono as is or $3500 firm with panel damage fixed.

Tyler,

Thank you for the nice post, but I am going to have to decline your offer. Mostly because I am specifically looking for a lower mileage manual example.

Good luck overseas!
