MD13 492 Report post Posted May 10, 2015 http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-883482242.htm Lots of very good clean looking work here - but that paint colour, wheel choice and gearknob kill it for me... For that price though I'm sure it would be a fun drive! Looking at the seller, has anyone had dealings with them? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Navin 180 Report post Posted May 10, 2015 Wow the other E30's he's selling are extremely tidy. Would love the white one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lewis91 114 Report post Posted May 10, 2015 I can vouch for how mint this car is, Eddie's a good mate of mine and all of his cars are in top shape. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

e30ftw 410 Report post Posted May 10, 2015 (edited) This car was a thrashed piece of sh*t when it was owned down in Wellington. He's obviously swapped out all the cosmetic stuff like ripped seats etc. Wouldn't touch any of his cars though after seeing some of his other buy and sells. Buy cheap, swap all the cosmetically obvious then resell at a higher price. (Edit- That's not to say it may have had a complete go over and is now a well built car, just my opinion) Edited May 10, 2015 by e30ftw Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_BRS_ 209 Report post Posted May 11, 2015 Apparently won "Best BMW" and "Best Engine Conversion" at Automania in the weekend... Judging from the e30 touring that won Best BMW last year i see a similar trend... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted May 11, 2015 Honestly seen m50 conversions in sh*t box e30s that are tidier than this. And surely you don't get points for originality? A tiny turbo motor making 170kw? Crunchy, Westy, josh etc get in there next time ha. Hell I would honestly say the m52 in the race car is tidier than that.

BMTHUG 1029 Report post Posted May 13, 2015 I have that same tiny turbo motor making 450 hp in a sub 1000 kg car so I wouldnt look down upon a sr20det. Not in any circumstance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted May 13, 2015 But *this* one only has 170. Mediocre at best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
