WOW! Now I'm jealous I always wanted a Henna Red M3 ever since reading an article about them as a school boy, but they've never been for sale at the right condition or time of looking. Those 16" rims finish it off nicely! Enjoy. ------------- Alpine White E30 M3 Evo 1

Thanks for all the nice words...I didn't sell my house, though PJSM3... Can't live in an E30! I did post on the E30 forum, too, but it is worth repeating here, I reckon... This is far from my first BM... I've had many, in the past: I used to race a 2002Ti with Turbo bodykit in the Kumhos back in the 90s:  Also rescued and restored an 1802:  Also have owned (no photos at the moment): 1983 E28 525i manual in White 1990 E34 530i (M30) manual in Silver I currently own a 1988 E30 325i SE 4dr in Royal Blue Metallic as well as the E30 M3...  ------------- 1987 E30 M3 1996 E36 328i SE 4dr (Manual) 1992 E34 525iX Touring...SOLD |

Nice car- good to see another early one in such nice original condition. Love the 2002 though- has my first drive in an '02 a couple of weeks back and thought it was a brilliant motor.
Welcome btw. -------------

Blimey! Another nice looking example. Nice car Coates. Hate to be such a spoil sport and point this out, but to me it looks as though the Side Repeaters have been fitted upside down. Is the vehicle imported? Enjoy driving and may you have many hours of grin filled fun ------------- Alpine White E30 M3 Evo 1

That really does look a nice straight car, those repeaters, glad you got them the right way round but was it an Aussie car Coates?  ------------- [IMG]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/ShepsM3/New-1a1.jpg">[IMG]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/ShepsM3/New-1b1.jpg"> |
