Thanks guys. Yep, I'm planning to take her to the annual Lelystad meet... said I wanted a driveable E21 for the time being and I was focusing on a 323i but as said... how to resist...

As for the wheels... dunno yet, for now I'll leave her on the original steel wheels. Unless Michael Cahsel makes me a real good deal...

What are 'ears'?

The higher sides of the headrests as can be found on the early E21's (up to abt 1980)...

Yeah I was planning to do that Nilsie! But first I wanna see what MOT/APK trouble the car gives me... hope to know that in 1-2 weeks.

That's one sweet ride! Proper 70's look

Keep the steelies, but try to get a hold of the chrome "rings" to put on them, tear off the rear spoiler, and give it a proper cleaning and then you're all set to go!

The chrome rings are definitely a good idea. I haven't checked so I don't know if the rear spoiler is a bolt on version or just glued. From the owner I understood it has been on there for almost 30 years so I'm afraid the trunklid will be up for a respray if I take it off.

It's easy to fit 5.5J 13" with 185/70-13 tires and chrome rings in the wheels. It would look cool and original

I guess the trunklid will have holes in it....

Apologise for not replying any sooner!

In the E21 corner:

323i 1981 (currently in the middle of an extremely slow restoration project)

323i 1980 (waiting for me to decide... sell it or finish it)

320/4 1976 (hope this one will bet MOT'd and on the road shortly)

And in the E30 corner:

325i 1988 (trackday playmobile)

320iS 1988
