    E30 crash tests from bmw (also 02,e21,e36,e46)

    Lets just say I got a very rare book that is published by BMW Group Mobile Tradition, and im in the sharing mood

    Frontal deformation and deceleration phases of BMW 3 series in 30mph (48km/h) barrier crash


    Little by little (daily or every few days) I will be uncovering this book. Which includes very technical details (example: suspension kinematics, material compounds, bmw axle/bearing/engine/transmission/steering/etc. colums detailed drawings, etc, etc, etc.)

        Cant find the book forsale anywhere. The way I got it was: I was at a local dealer and they got 2 of these books as presents from BMW when they opened their branch, i talked the parts manager into selling one of them to me.

        Digital k - I have a scanner, but the pages are alot bigger then my scanner can fit :D
