Looks great Rasb - the Alpina front is a good look and unusual colour.

Thanks a lot, guys
The car is tugged away in the garage with no license plates at the moment - It failed it's last MOT due to excesive rust in the front left side member. I put the car up for sale for 5.200 Euro about 3 months ago, but after ZERO interrest from anyone, I have decided to keep it, and see if I have the time and money to fix the rust etc. in the spring time next year

Mine are 7x15" BBS RS070's with ET16, so no spacers are needed. If you have 7x15" RS001's with ET25, you need a spacer of about 9-10mm. I an not sure about the 8x15" rim.cobbler2u wrote:very nice car 1 of my favourite e.21s.

Glad you kept it too. Even as an MOT failure 5,200 is a great price.

Hm, I can see most of the pictures in this thread are lost - Picture host update, I guess.
Well, as some of you may know, I have sold the car a couple of weeks ago, after almost 8 years of great ownership - I am going to miss is big time!!!!
The new owner is a 55 year old guy from Germany, with several other old BMW
He came today to pick it up
Taking a final look:
Handing over the keys:
Driving away... FOREVER!
So... now I just have one nice "problem"... what's next? E23? E32 V8 - Let's see

Re: My 323i 2,5 (NEW PICS page 9)
Ah yes, I am still alive and well, even without my E21
When sold, I was afraid I would miss it terribly, but it is actually not the case - I never give much thought to it, actually. I was ready to move on, and the past 8 months not missing it, proves me right
It is a stunning looking car, and it will not be my last sharknose BMW. I think my next old school ride will be a E12 or E28 - I simply think the E21's are getting too damn expensive, for me to jsutify a purchase of another.
By the way, I recieved a couple of pics from the new owner, from the started restoration of it, and it also proves it was ready for another restoration!
360.000km i the Danish climate had really taken it's toll on it.
Jeroen are right - I am now cruising in a 1993 E34 540i, with all the gadgets - I apologize in advance for the douchebag looking exhaust (I promise... it was on the car when I bought it!!!)
By the way, it has been somewhat of an expensive relationship - I owned the car for 6 months, and have already spent more on it, than I paid for it
But it IS a great drive, and what music it makes
Right now the car is located at Euler BMW in Frankfurt, 800km from me, due to a broken water pump and thermostat - "Blew up" on the German autobahn last weekend

Nice to see you're still checking back here regularly! The 540i is a beauty, and what a great car to drive. Friend of mine has two, 6 speeds manuals, and we drove them against a 3.6 M5. The difference was only very, very small. On a slow track, the 540's would be faster. Enjoy it and hope to see you in person again one day! Best to the Ms as well!
