bga 96 Report post Posted July 9, 2019 .. reigniting an old thread as folks mentioning the ludicrous E30 prices at the moment, the E30 that was the subject of this thread is up on TM again (has been up multiple times since I nearly bagged in a few years ago) asking price is $13k now and it looks to be in worse condition now - certainly regarding the interior https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-2221080086.htm?rsqid=126ba3dab23c463db9c31e4506c7b66a-002 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted July 9, 2019 I would have a real problem paying anywhere near that money for an E30 with a ripped & worn driver’s seat that doesn’t even match the rest of the interior. *Disclaimer - M3, M325i, Alpina, etc. excepted. Pluses: Coupe, manual, 15” weaves, preventative maintenance but still does not come close. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seller will say "Wouldn't cost much to sort." Well, f**king sort it then, and we can talk again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted July 9, 2019 Just makes me think “if they don’t care about something as obvious as the seats, what about all the unseen stuff..”? Also I have a thing about tyres, if they fit cheap shitty tyres, then what else do they scrimp on? (Not saying this car has this, just saying). 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
