Lets See Those Tourings

[stonea]

To kick off the new Touring Sub-Forum of R3v I think it would be sweet to post pictures of your ultimate grocery getter. Although I don't personally don't own a touring my dad does and I'm helping him out with it. Turns out the Bentley Manual doesn't cover the Touring to well :( So I'll be in here a lot.

Here is his 1989 325ix Touring

-60,000 Original Miles
-5 Speed
-Slick Top
-Power Front/Manual Rear Windows
-Imported from Spain

Love it! There's one of these somewhere in CT left hand drive w/km on the speedo

SWEET! Many thanks to the moderators for creating this forum. Here's pics of my Touring, acquired in Oct 2015.

1988 320i Touring
Diamondschwarz / Anthracite
approx. 178k miles
from Germany (TUV is still current!)
5 spd
manual sunroof
WORKING FACTORY A/C
Already replaced bottle caps with Style 10s. Huge improvement.

Car is definitely tired inside and out. I've already spent well over $2k since acquiring it, and have barely scratched the surface. I anticipate at least 2 years to get it to good looking, reliable daily driver condition. Will purposely not be adding up the total cost.

There is definitely rust, but none in structural areas or the rear hatch. I'm hoping to find a body shop in NC/SC/VA that knows E30s but won't charge me for a concours restoration. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

That one is gorgeous and love how he redid the interior!! I wonder how much it sold for.

1989 320i Touring

Picked up this gorgeous car from an American living in Munich that couldn't take it home with him. I almost missed out on this car, and I'm soo glad i played hookie from work to scoop it up.

-5spd Brillantrot
-99% complete MT2 conversion (missing the rear spoiler if anyone wants to sell me one ;D)
-2.5L swap with bored bottom end, 2.7L non-stroker
-Came with H&R sport springs, koni shocks, over-plaid sport seats and BNIB smoked Hella smileys
-Unfortunately somewhere along the line it lost its beam-throw control(good) and the rear wiper assembly(bad).
-Fresh paint on the kit, roof, and hood.

I sprung on trade for a set of Nagaros like a few weeks later for the Borbets. She needs a little love here and there with some minor stuff, nothing that can't be fixed easily; but its a solid chassis. I can not wait to get back stateside so I can really sink my teeth into it.

crash n' burn - love the uberkaro seats! Do you know if the combo of the uberkaro seats and what looks like anthracite door cards is original?

Thanks, Cory

+1 on the seats. Screw Mtech seats, I want some of those. Let me know if you ever get tired of them!
