leichtbau 525 Report post Posted September 30, 2020 Now that’s a throwback! Someone message Riley, I reckon he’d be keen to buy it back, that car was an absolute peach when he built it. Wonder why it needed re vinning? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone message Riley, I reckon he’d be keen to buy it back, that car was an absolute peach when he built it. Wonder why it needed re vinning? It sat in a shed and the rego lapsed while he was overseas and I recomplied it when I bought it in late 2012. I'd buy it back if I hadn't just bought another one. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30 325i Rag-Top 2963 Report post Posted October 2, 2020 I thought it was advertised as a rolling “body” which wouldn’t be too bad if it was sound and only missing the engine and gearbox, but the lack of clarity makes that seem unlikely. The touring is still cheap compared to the E30 M3 rolling SHELLS I’ve been looking for in the USofA... US$15k for a badly hacked up and accident damaged race car shell... ? Still, there’s a guy on Facebook looking for $300 for a bootlid & heckspoiler with rooted paint. If that’s what they are worth then i need to contact my insurer as my garage & shed are a good mine!!

Sammo 2550 Report post Posted October 4, 2020 Haha, just came here to post about this 318is. Looks SO good. In the context of recent asking prices, not too bad given rarity, desirability and condition IMO 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted October 5, 2020 in the e30 world maybe, but you can get SO much more for 22k does it make sense? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3341 Report post Posted October 5, 2020 As an M3 is above $90k; and a good ///M325i coupe is $50-60k now... then a tidy 318iS is absolutely worth $20k. Check out the prices of tidy collectible non-garage Queen 318iS in USA where they are relatively plentiful! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leichtbau 525 Report post Posted October 5, 2020 Quote Is this where the E30 market is now? Very much so it would seem. Right buyer and right car for it to sell "inside an hour" but I know 4-5 people who would have tendered offers over the next few days, so the buyers are absolutely there for the right cars. @ctho was the M325i there when you collected? I understand that'll be a $40K minimum proposition. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
