    I actually understand the Slovakian language, I'm from Poland myself living in the US. I have many slavic friends. That is an amazing looking c280. And that e30's interior is to die for. Exactly what I want except for the radio delete. Right down to the analog clock.

      I love my analog clock :)
      I'll surely be working on the suspension, but the weather sucks. I'm not sure what condition its in, though driving it I haven't noticed anything abnormal. So until it gets a bit warmer, I'm gathering various parts people are selling at great winter prices. Next up is a strut brace (maybe even rear), mark-d chip on the way, need oil and filters, some other small parts and of course tires.
      The wheels are 7x15 ET13 so I'm looking at 205/50. I really like the look on this touring:

        Hi! I have 320/m50 also. 85 euro 4dr....with manual windows and locks and no sunroof. light! i didn't get a euro owners manual with mine. question for you..what are the two square buttons on the center of the dash to the left of the hazard/defrost buttons for? have same on mine but not labeled and don't appear to do anything. they look identical to the a/c recirc buttons. mine are to the right of the hazard.






        thanks!

          Hey Marshall, nice 4 door, that color is sweet!
          Actually I have no idea what the two buttons are originally for, but the PO plugged them for fan speed 1 / speed 2 for the swap.

          Wow, after closer inspection I'm wondering how you crammed that viscous fan in. Fan/radiator specs?

            thanks! not as nice as yours...;)

            lol, i will probably pull the switch and see if it is even connected to anything!

            swap was done a couple of po's ago. the fan is dang close to the rad, it wobbles, and it looks really small in diameter. i may delete it and put elec fan in front of rad (if i find the a/c doesn't work and take it out....)

            i just got the car and am still figuring out what works and what doesn't.

            color is Karminrot..not very common. think it was a euro only color.

                Pics of the seats
                Ignore the black part, it's just a towel tucked in so that I don't tear it with jeans rivets. Though I think it actually looks good.
                Anyone know what type seats they are?

                Btw: can someone identify the sideskirts on the touring above?

                  Painted the wheels "half-transparent" black. Hard to see in the pics, the black lightens or darkens depending on light angle.
                  Now I'll just polish the paint a bit and put the shoes on. Bought Continental SportContacts in 205/50.

                        They're surprisingly comfortable too. The way they wrap you in is awesome.

                              How do you clean a gunky old airbox when you're the laziest person in the world?
                              (also awesome when you want to clean air vents and stuff like that)

                                Long time no update.
                                Pics of the suspension rebuild.

                                Koni TA all around
                                IE 25mm sway
                                D2 "3D" top pillow ball mounts, I had to make a custom spacer for
                                Strongflex poly CABs, 90 ShA
                                All new Lemforder joints
                                Meyle HD rear upper mounts
                                new bolts and bits



                                This is why I needed a spacer. D2 sells them for "E30s on stock suspension".



                                Then I got an idea



                                Played with Sketch for a couple hours...









                                Had a guy make 'em
