    New 87 325e

    I joined this site a few days ago and lurked here for a few weeks prior, but never posted. Today, I picked up an 87 325e that I will be using as a commuter/project car. Mechanically it is pretty good shape. It could use some work cosmetically, but that doesn't bother me too much right now. Picked up some useful tips from the site that helped to find a decent car. I am sure I will continue to need a bit of help now and again.

    Get a chip, it's good becuase your car is slow and this will make it faster.

              Well, after a day of driving it, I've noticed it is idling a bit rough. I'll have to look into that. I've got the A/C re-charged, and that is working now, so I'll be able to drive it a bit more comfortably. It is leaking a bit of oil, but not too bad. So far, I like it.

                      a chip is cheap, but I would do a I conversion.

                        I'll post some pics this weekend. It isn't too pretty to look at, but it runs pretty well.

                          Here is a pic:


                          That is my daughter helping out. She is enjoying this car and always wants to work on it. Have keep that interest going as she gets older so I can keep my hobby going.

                          The oil leak I had in the car is getting worse. I have ordered a few parts from Pelican that will hopefully take care of the problem.
