martyyn 2 Report post Posted March 11, 2006 i have tentatively bought it....there seems to be something dodge, so i may head down next weekend and drive back up. but am more than prepared to walk away if needs be. Whats the problem with it ?If its something basic/obvious I may be able to take a look on Wednesday evening, but honestly if its something technical you may be better off with someone else. Let me know what it is and Ill let you know how comfortable I am about having a look ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted March 11, 2006 cheers martyn.....dodgy from the point of view that it has been on trademe many times before, and ive been told it was de reg'd at some point and 'only good for a track car' will try VIR it and see how i go. also the paint has to be pretty mint, as im giving up a repaint if i do go ahead and get it. still waiting to hear back from the seller....

topless 13 Report post Posted April 9, 2006 (edited) and if I am reading the rules correctly, nor can you race a m20 pre-motronic either..?? Can't see the reasoning behind not being able to race the M10, I had started preparing one and had spares etc but now I am no longer interested as both my supposed race cars don't comply engine-wise... :thumbsdown: Edited April 9, 2006 by topless Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30stz 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2006 (edited) you still cant. All the E30's must be exaclty the same spec aside from safety features. Ie. Your only allowed facelift E30 318's .. with factory spec.. not a E30 pre-fl with a 318 M40 engine in it. Edited April 9, 2006 by E30stz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
