	Hi there. There will be some on here that know me from the e30zone but just a quick "Hi" to all on here. BMW's is where I'm at especially 70's 80's and early 90's stuff (E3's, E21's E23's, E24's, E34's and especially the E30 3 series). Started interloping on here a couple of months ago trawling through the awesome "Lets see the abandoned ones" thread and suddenly thought, "this is crazy! I need to register". So here I am. Heres my "bit of fun". Owned it for 7 year and spent a fortune. Spec is Sport suspension, c2 2.7 bottom end, LSD etc etc. Was nice when I bought it but wanted it nicer and apart from a full cruise control kit to be fitted soon, here she is finished! Hope yu like:

	That is very very clean, especially for a white E30. The best looking cabrio of the 80's in my opinion.

	i can't figure out what it is about the back end that makes it looks so clean and pre-facelift-ish. Have you taken something off? Its lovely BTW.

Thanks for all the comments. Re the back end the car is as it should be in the photo. I believe it's because it's white it makes it look so plain (and I mean that in a nice way). However, At present it's running a rare pre facelift number plate panel that came on a convertible I broke up. I'd never seen one before and it's along the lines of a post facelift panel. The jury's still out at present. Now I like the panel, but then when I look at the photo without I also like it. But which ones better? Only one way to find out!!!! Feel free to give share your views ;D

	Hey! Must admit, I've been looking at this site for some time now and I'm thinking it may feed my needs more than the zone these days. The zone is too volatile now and TBH, I'm getting to the point wher I cannot be arsed anymore. Have I missed it this week? Not really I'm sorry to say.

	This car is exceptional, inside and out. It looks far better without the number plate panel though.

	Yeah, I'm fairly new on the zone and sometimes it is abit much, havnt missed it this week either. It is however great for parts still, so ill continue using it. Also i forgot to add earlier but it looks loads better without the numberplate panel.

	+1 for deleting the panel other than that, that's a beautiful E30 . . how is the autotragic holding up with the 2.7l? . . the pre-facelift ones are so much better looking than the later ones . . and thanks for NOT painting the mirrors . . looks great!!

	Another +1 for not having the rear panel, although either way it looks fantastic!

Oh, i was getting really confused there But it looks like it's got the lower rear arches even though the rest is prefacelift, bare the headlights.
