Well I just went to inspect the interior.
It definitely needs a re-trim, but the seats are rare as tits on a bull, and the price... oh the price!
So I just bought it.
Going to pull it tomorrow night, guy said I could help myself to anything in the interior except the steering wheel and dash.
So obviously I'm going to take everything.
Don't know whether I'll keep it or re-sell it.
Other than re-trim there are a couple of problems though,
-The backrests do not spring back like they are supposed to, same as every e30 I've been in,
-They are from a German e30 once upon a time, so LHD, so the release handles to flip the seats forward are on the wrong side, not a massive problem
-Also the handle is missing on one backrest release, but thats not a big deal either.
Here a few photos I have, You can see the condition they are in.






They are original e30 RECARO seats, black/Grey, vinyl/cloth.
I do not know as much as I'd like to about them, but I'm researching hard, and I'll post more info as I learn it.
I always like to see e30 bits and pieces you don't come across every day,
so thought I'd share with you all.
Out of curiosity what do you estimate an interior like this to be worth (In this condition? and re-trimmed?)
-Seats Front/back
-Carpet
-Door cards
-Parcel shelf
