I was working in Sandy today haha. I'm looking to sell the E30 but in no rush. An S2 will be for use on the odd evening/weekend.

A meet up and chat would be very much appreciated thank you.

For those that asked, here's a spec' on the E30.

H&R coilovers, these were already fitted when I bought the car but I removed them to clean and inspect them.

All threads were thoroughly cleaned and covered in copper grease on installation. (Regreased on a regular basis).

[Dan320is]

and how much is it up for ?

£12750.

Awaits the 'how much!!!!!!!!' statement haha.

[audinut]

jesus will it sell for that?

[Dan320is]

jesus will it sell for that?

Maybe. I've had a couple of interested parties but nothing solid yet. It's a very difficult car to value, I'm prepared to move on the price if anyone wants to view it/haggle.

[audinut]

well its always worth what someone will pay but i would think thats terribly close to e30 m3 money ?

[Dave cook]

Hey Dan, Thats a beautiful 320iS !

If you're ever near Norwich you're more than welcome to come take a look at my brothers motors

[Biggss2]

[twenty valve]

I was going to say, that e30 is worth more than most rs2s believe it or not!

Dan,

With a spec listing like that and that much attention to detail, you fit in here just perfect. ....

Any chance of a photo showing the seats to facilitate further drooling ?

If you get your asking price, buy a nice RS2, chip it and you should be neeeeaaarrrrly done. :mischeif:

Welcome and kind regards.
