E30 318is Road Rally or Sell It ???

Postby Daishag » Sun Oct 11, 2009 7:28 pm

Right then below is a couple of pic's of a E30 318is i picked up this weekend, dunno what to do know wether to keep it and gradually turn her into road rally spec or just to bang her straight on ebay and try and turn a profit.
I paid £700 as she stands she's MOT'd till May 2010 and taxed until the end of October 2009, she has the odd bump / dent and the odd scratch but generally tidy, the inside ain't that tidy though req's some attention (this is saying to me road rally it as the interior ain't that good) but see what you boys think ????

And the only bit of rust i can find on her even when i had her up on the ramp is the picture below, there is small scabs here and there but no holes .......

What do you reckon then ?????

You can get that to go well dia for not a lot of money.


Brianap on here was selling a medium 4.4:1 lsd with atlas plates conversion for £450

You could also put a e36 box on it to vring the gearing down even more, billsteins for the front new are £300 from autoquip uk, rear same as escort turreted, look threw my car so far you can see its dead simple!

I bought it from Anglesey but after a bit of digging its supposed to have been owned by a guy who worked for John Leckey at Old Stables Garage at the top of the high street in Prestatyn, which would explain the OSG Motorsport sticker on the boot !!!!!

I have taken the front eye brow spoiler's off, cleaned all the paint off the top edge of the rear lights, taken the M-Power and A.C.Schnitzer badges off her all ready, she's had all the intake rubber pipework replaced and a full service, and she's still giving me bother ie the bloody door locks bust this morning in the cold so she only locks via the boot C.L. and that has intermittant operation LOL The Joys Of Owning A Retro Car !!!!!

Im Looking for some Std 15" Alloys or in fact any 15" Alloys to get rid of them there 17" on her !!!!!!
