Finally picked up my E30 about a week ago. Just waiting on UK registration so that I can use it. Has quite a list of modifications inc DTM carbon air box. It sounds epic!

Think so...............

he was happy getting it for c £7k with electrical issues- not sure how eligible it is given it has the non vanos 3 litre M3 E36 engine and gearbox

he is a paint and detailing expert and I see it being sorted with a new paint job and maybe ME E30 flares soon!

Some pictures of my E30's
-The very first, the 325iX Baur my father bought summer 2003.
Image
Since 2009 in "restoration" (sort of)
Image

-The second 325iX Baur (no, not my second E30 :sealed ), drove it from early 2011 till end 2012. Head gasket blown, waiting for an other engine. Stripped of the options, these are going into the white.
Image
Image
Image

-This was the daily driver, now turning into a plaything. A '85 318i, which drove daily from september 2012 till march 2014. In totall 50.000km's. Then parked it, now upgrading the brakes (disc all round), hoping to build in a M30 some time. But for now...well, just look at the last picture.
Image
Image
Image

And then there are some parts/restoration in the very far future cars:
From left to right:
-316i M10: bought this early 2012 from the first owner, sold it after a month to a friend and bought it back this year, only for the engine (going into the 318i)
-'83 320i Baur: Bought this some years ago. Might use it as a welding-practice car...but doubt if I still need it as practice car, see picture above :whistle
-316 4-door, registered 9-8-1982. Almost through parting.
Image
'87 316, used as a shed...till someone needed a part of the C-pillar.
Image

And this is my playground:
Image
The left is the ex320iA (now 323i manual), the Touring on the right ex316i (now 318iS).
