How much would you guys pay for this 86 325i mtech 1

[skitzy777]

Can't you tell by my lack of acknowledgement :')
I am slightly obsessed with mtech 1's and I figured this was my only chance as in Australia there are only 6 including mine.

Also I'm a fucking moron.

So you paid full asking?

[skitzy777]

I am doing a full Resto. I've seen these sell for 55k AUD. Regardless I'm planning to keep it for a long time.

I did end up buying it btw, its been sitting in my garage for a year lol... Ended up buying a 325i touring from the UK too.

Please tell me you didn't even pay a quarter of that price you mentioned in the OP...

[Digitalwave]

I wouldn't pay any more than the kit & bumpers are worth, if even that due to the hassle of having to scrap the chassis.

Any plans for it? Or just cannibalizing it for parts at this point?

That is serious rust. Id be worried about raising it on the life by the looks of the front floor. If they wont touch it, run.

Wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. I'm sure there are better options to be had out there.

Found for sale, has extensive rust damage and panel damage. Interior is allegedly in restored 'mint' condition. Mechanically they say it ran and was ok.

Not shown is the rockers which are absolutely gone and rusted away. pretty grim. Interested, but they are asking 16k AUD, which is quite far fetched but they own a restoration business so they see value in it.

By the time you import it etc from the UK you might as well bid on that mint one for auction, when factoring the cost of restoring this as well ;)

[roguetoaster]

If they own a restoration business and won't touch it you shouldn't either. Sounds like they are trying to cut and run while profiting off of some poor sucker.

At least what the goodies are worth…
