    M technic article in the Roundel

    For the life of me, I cannot find this damn article anywhere online. I'm sure I have it saved somewhere on my computer but can't find it. Does anyone have it or a working link? Was it Roundel Feb 2008 issue that it was printed in? Thanks.

      Is it? I saw it but never really read the entire article. Now I can't find it!

        Rob and I just bought copies of April 1999 Bimmer magazine M-Technic article, and he posted scans on my FS thread. They're still available very cheap.



        is this the article you're referring to, or is there indeed a roundel article as well?

          The roundel article feature's the nice red M technic that was for sale by Gil Ceravantes in NorCal. They are different articles. I actually scored that issue of the Roundel from my neighbor who is a BMW CCA member. That issue of Bimmer looks like a pretty good one too. Gonna try to pick it up.

                Just read through the whole thing. Nothing I can see in the Feb 2008 Roundel article that's inconsistent with keith/e30ic or the ecabrio.se site

                  the article or that Agassi 771 that was floating around?
                  selling your MT2?
                  and what's up with your MT1 conversion - moving forward?

                  so many crusher questions. still haven't met you and we're both locals..

                    Thanks for the information. I tried to get the ecabrio.se link to open and it did not work. Is there more to the site link?

                    Cheers,

                      I have actually done a lot of research on these when I got mine. From what I've seen, there is no one single site that is 100% accurate. There's always one little bit of misinformation somewhere. Keith's site isn't inaccurate per se, but it doesn't represent ALL of the cars produced...just those produced in 4/91 and that's important to note since mine and a few others were produced upto 7/91 I think it was.

                      Jim...



                      this site shows that the 770 appearance package has M tech door sills and such....which we know it doesn't. It also states it has the leather trunkliner. I can't say for sure but I don't think that's accurate either.

                      Is there any way to save that article from the cca website???
