    Some recent shots of the dirty free 30

    Its been oh, three years or so since I've taken any pictures of my car, but I woke up way too early today and figured I'd go out front and snap a few.

    1991 318i, 7/90 build date, I'm the 2nd owner. It had been rotting on my old boss's driveway with a flat tire, a dead battery and a few small issues for nearly a year when his home owners association started to insist he get rid of it. He decided it wasn't worth selling and offered to let me take it. It had 78,000 miles on it when I got it in February of 2007, and is at 97,500 today, approaching the big 1-0-0 :) The wheels are 15x6.5" 3pc OZ Vegas with the oh-so-hard to find intact center caps. No other mods, maybe when I get some free time.

    The exterior. It has lots of battle scars from the previous owner. He kept great maintenance records, but couldn't drive worth a damn.








    The interior, aside from a horridly cracked up dash that I hide with a fuzzy cover, looks factory fresh. Unlike the paint.

    Nice car, mine is also a 7/90 318i. Mine was almost free, the P.O's wanted to give it to me for free, but I paid for it...but my car had 208k on it.

      Looks pretty good but, it definitely needs to be lower.

        Looks really nice apart from the cracked dash.

                      Hah, I don't know why. Tone was adjusted ever so slightly in Aperture, but that's it. Must just be the early morning lighting
