Hey folks,

Thought I'd pop back in to the site to see what's rocking in the E21 world and wow, how things have changed, for the better. Looks like E21's are alive and kicking which is nice to see and the community here has grown massiveley since I was here last.

I saw this post while looking to see whatever happened to my old E21 turbo. Last I heard, Shane had bought it, I spoke to him a couple of times after the dude from Cornwall blew it up and he purchased it and was trying to get it running, but that was a good few years back. Anyone know where it is now?

I'm still driving Beemers or various shapes and sizes, but have gotten into motorbikes since parting the E21, but I still have a hankering to get another at some point, man I miss the turbo.

Sold to the guy from Cornwall, then on to Shane, quite a few years ago. Hence me coming back here to see if anyone bought it since, or if Shane still has it. I have his number somewhere, will give him a call over he weekend.

Joe sold it years ago Kam. He did tell me where the buyer came from but I've forgotten. I'm pretty sure it still shows as being taxed on the DVLA website though, but who knows what engine etc it runs nowadays?

I'm probably going to see Joe next week so will ask him then. He's still got an e21 mind you. ;)

Nice, thanks for that Mark, i''ll be interested to find out what happened to it. Browsing through the forum again after all these years have given me the yearning for another E21.
