Two old Bavarians
Discussion
Hi lads,
I’ve always loved the older BMW’s, and have made my way through too many to list. I still have an e30 325i sport, which I’ve owned for about 16 or 17 years.
And one that I’ve recently sold and owned for over a decade. A late 98 m3 evo in individual santorini blue, I believe only about 6 m3 coupes were produced in this colour, a very regretful sale to say that least that only really happened because it coincided with a house purchase.

Merry Christmas !
That E30 Sport of yours is stunning. Although an older car I just love the the shape of the E30 325 sport. Not a bad car but I never really loved the the E36 in comparison. I drove a rough 325i sport and even then wanted one. Never did find one in the end. Closest I got was a 3i8iS which to be fair was damn good. And would willingly hang out its tail. I found it quite local and although values were quite low then. Im convinced the owner did not know what he was selling. Yes I did find and fit a later M steering wheel.

Hi lads,
I barely ever venture in to new threads anymore but through some whimsical magic clicked this just now. Lass here and have owned both an E30 and E36 M3 Evo in the past. I barely have any photos as tech wasn’t as advanced back in the day
I loved the smell of my E30 and the comfort of the Evo. Currently driving a Mini convertible as kids all grown up and no longer need running to school. One of the only photos of I have of a glimpse of the E30!
You definitely kept the right one, looks fantastic in that spec, I have always thought of these as both timeless and classless.
If I wanted a classic, this would be my first choice, even over an e30 M3. Enjoy it, but I guess you already have for the past 16/17 years, long may that continue.
