Hi,
New member here from Jersey in the Channel Islands, only just found this site and was impressed enough to sign up.
I love BMWs and currently own an E36 M3, a 1973 2002 Touring and a 1988 325i Sport but have had many many other BMWs. I favour older BMWs and after owning loads and loads of cars I've deceided that the E30 is the one for me. Next month I may be buying an 1991 318is that I've been drooling over for the last 9 years but I think the M3 and the 2002 will have to go.
This is my 325i Sport:
This pic of the interior below is an old pic, now the driver's seat is in a rough condition but you can see here that it has the proper Recaro seats not the standard BMW sports seats:
Some background on the car, I bought it in about 2002/2003 and kept it for about a year or so before getting bored of all its little problems and selling it for a newish car, that was a huge mistake because I never forgot that car and really regretted selling it so I thought I'd try and buy another at the begining of last year. Living on a small island (9x5 miles) with its own laws makes importing a car from mainland UK expensive and tedious and 325i Sports are few and far between on the island.
Anyway I managed to track my old car down and buy it back, it feels very odd to be back in my old car but unfortunately it hasn't been well looked after and needs lots of bodywork. I've nearly completed the mechanical work having fitted a replacement engine within the first week of buying it back and I've recently bought some panels for the bodywork to come.
Anyway hope I haven't rambled on too long :yawn:, I think I'm right in saying the Sport was a UK model only, it was a normal 325i with a close-ratio gearbox, Limited Slip Diff as standard, bilstein suspension and an M-tec bodykit but a standard 2.5 m20 engine.
Cheers
:p
