    1985 BMW 325. Great for a Spec E30!

    Up for sale is a 1985 BMW 325e 4 door sedan. 5-speed! Delphin over cardinal interior. It ran and drove great a little over a month ago. It was parked about 4 weeks ago due to an igintion problem. It was my distant cousins car and she just wanted it gone out of her yard.

    Paint looks OK on the hood and side of the body. The roofs clearcoat has come off leaving no shine, and the trunk lid is peeling. The body is pretty straight other than the rear. Looks like it had been hit by a large truck as it dented and messed up the rear area. The bumper was untouched as the trunk lid and license plate area took the hit. The Mtech spoiler is still in good shape though.

    Interior is in decent shape. No glovebox and the knee bolster is missing so wires are hanging out everywhere. I put some leather cleaner on a portion of the rear seat and it looks about 80% better. The bottlecaps are in incredible condition. I was suprised to see how nice they were. The motor is extremely clean which was also a big surprise. Timing belt was done about 15,000 miles ago according to the PO. I should have the new ignition installed in the next week or so.

    Not much to look at, but for a sub-$1000 E30 its not that bad. I figured someone wanting to build a Spec E30 race car might have an interest in the car. Asking $800 OBO. Some pics:

    Photos of the interior/seats? Mileage on it? Any rust? Has it been sitting with the sunroof open or is it open for the photos?

      I will post up interior pics tonite. Mileage is around 160,000. The only rust I have seen is on the rear of the car. Nothing bad or has eaten though, just surface mainly. When I get home tonite I will look under the car and inspect it more in depth. I just got the car last week and havent done much with it since. Ill post up more today. I hate having such a non indepth for sale thread, but I was just trying to get the word out. Thanks!

          From the condition of those seats, it looks to have been sitting with the sunroof open. :( Is the ignition problem fixed yet?

            The sunroof had been open for a couple of weeks, but the car had been covered. Igitnion problem has not been fixed. I cant decide if i want to go through the pain of fixing it or just parting it out. I think parting it out might be a better option.
