just had a phone call, the one in the link i posted is sold now.. :(

on the hunt again then.


(shane, lovin the sideways action!!)

So was I, if I kept the car i would of lost my licence, that pic was a local air field, but the temptation to do it on the road............
Think i got another one like that somewhere, hang on........

Just realised, and Im quite gutted about this, I have no pics with the car on 17" alpinas, these pics was taken a few months before i sold.
Shane

well im still on the hunt, finding a good one is hard work!!

so if anyone knows of one worth looking at please let me know.

cheers.

Just found this while looking for a set of seats for mine, if I hadnt just bought my estate Id have been keen on this!

Damn it, ive been trying to find some pics of that old max power project xs e30 that they did

But tinternet doesnt reference it at all

cheers shane, after looking at a few i think im going to go for a Touring, so will keep an eye on it, trying to find a nice standard one but have a few ideas for some subtle changes.

This has been the first chance Ive had to take a pic and post it, its a bit dirty as have just been to london and back today, realy happy with it , just want to source an 318is/325 lower valence trim, rather the diy affair thats on there. Also after making the 375 mile round trip (and the car screamig most of the way) Im tempted to drop a 6pot lump under the bonnet, (this will also even out the lowering, as the back is lower than the front, lol)

70 mph oil feed pipe pop!!!!!

Yeah, thats sport is apparently absolutely mint. He did a great job of it.

You have to register before you can view anything on e30zone forum too btw.

Thanks gents, already a member from when I had my other two bm's, Really dont wanna get carried away wit this one, it will only end up replacing the mini on the project list, and thats not what I want, only needed a run around, lol
Shane

Looks alright nick though?

Just needs those mirrors replacing with standard ones, an iS lip and a couple of other touches.....looks good tho

70 mph oil feed pipe pop!!!!!

The mirrors arent great to say the least! What other touches did you have in mind? Was toying wit an M-tech 1 set of valences or the Is lip. Just spent the last hour cleaning a std set of seats to fit later in the week, at the mo it has some really uncomfortable Recaro's in there. But on the whole its mint, didnt miss a beat on the trip yesterday.

nice one shane, im still looking for a goodun!

and now hammoj28 is sticking his on his sig! thats just not fair!!

"You dont like the sports seats? I think they are brilliant.lol"
They arent the recarro's you would find in the Is or 325/ m3. Thet are a set of really uncomfy bucket seats. If I could find a set of the original reccaro sports seats for reasonable money I would have them but I paid £40 for a mint std interior, which will be more than adequit for now.

Just found this on Ebay Item number: 320219572527, do you think I can shoe horn it on? lol
