more door e30 3161 lux?

[shiffty]

just had a sneaky look at a 91 e30 316i lux 4 door it has mot 6months tax 3months and although its parked against a wall and hasnt been washed in years it didnt look too bad although it was dark.
the good points are its legal running and drivers seat etc are in good shape no threads hanging off the drivers seat in base bottom off the a pillars looks solid, and it has full service history and is white

bad points central locking and electric windows don't work interior is dirty n/s rear wheel arch a bit scabby but the ns front wing is missing below trim line where it joins the cill

right so what i wanna know is what it worth roughly and is it worth repairing where else are common areas for rot on these thanks guys

I paid £550 for my e30 325i tourer with 11months MOT and 6months tax.
It's up to you if it's worth repairing, even a minter base model won't be 'worth' much I expect, but if you decide to use it as a base for an engine swap etc, why not ?

well i went out and bought the lux 86000 miles from new 6months mot and 3 months tax paid just 225 for it on closer inspection it wants a lot more work than i thought so went on ebay for a "parts car" and scored a 1988 316, it has webber carb, 40 mm lowered springs, clear indicators m tech steering wheel and gear knob, but very short mot, and no power steering,which has gotta be pretty rare turns out this is a lot nicer better car so gonna mot it this week but how rare is it in base spec like this it has the m10? engine runs sweet as
