Bad ones need to be saved too!

Thank you for the video, i found an e30 today and im going to check it out tomorrow. your help on what to look out for was very helpful

Oh that engine rev noise. How I miss it. I had 2 ‘87 528e’s. One manual with leather and other auto with cloth. A ‘85 325e 5 speed 2 door with cloth, notice yours in the video with manual roof. Mine was power and had the full computer. Then lastly the car I wish I never sold, ‘88 325ic stick White black top crimson leather. Such a blast.

Thanks for this, this is exactly what I need as I'm on the search for my first E30! Can't wait to see more content from y'all!

Yeah e30's are getting really expensive now .... you used to be able to pick up a shell for like 100 bucks and an engine and manual swap for like 600 easily but now with everyone doing m50 swaps the getrag manual transmissions are getting really spendy to a point where im struggling to find one for my next build :/

Informative; thank you.

Great video, can you make a video on changing the diff on a 325e?

Nice video! Question on the sunroof video I don’t see any other video of what u mentioned. I have a 84 manual sunroof and when I had recently purchased the car I tried opening the sunroof and felt the wire inside snap or something on the rail I can spin the handle but just hear the wires move but sunroof doesn’t so not sure how to fix that no way of popping it up or down :(

The Lachssilber 325 is really good condition. A lot of interior work, but all manageable. Btw the worn out stickers on the a/c button etc can be replaced. 325i Sunroof, a/c (very rare in Germany) M-Technik 1 steering wheel (500$ in Germany) and the sport seats. Really cool car. Btw the rusty chrome around the front window can be replaced for small money! Thanks for the learning track learnt a lot about my beloved car model.

doing this video in the rain is insane thanks

Great video. I’m looking to buy my first e30. Is the high transmission sound normal for an e30?

nice video, thanks!

Already subscribed (#90) . Very informative. You just need a wireless mic and you are set. Hope your channel grow ! It will

im trying to buy my first BMW e30 convertible, and this video really helped me see the things I need to check out but is there anything else I should be looking for on the convertible version?

I've always had a fondness for the "eta"s the underestimated American brother to the 325i. Their lower broader torque curve makes them great daily drivers. If you swap out the too tall 2.75:1 diff for a 3.25 - 3.45:1 it gives them a whole new personality.

I think the real question is "where" to find an e30 these days? I had a '91 325i and was rear ended one day 😭 have been looking for another one ever since

Where did you get that cool e30 t shirt. I want one!

Lachsilber is Salmon Silver. Not Silver Lake. Battery would be in the rear in a 325, unless it’s a very, so of course there’s no rust in the one up front. Early 318 had them in front.

And this one actuually, works!

Cool guy, cool video! I subscribed. Thanks

Bloody hell that’s incredible

Loved the video great informative one subscription is in order keep it up

I noticed that you went over this pretty good last year what do you do if it’s an 1986 320i. Because this German vehicle does not have all the Vin numbers that Americans do

Fabulous car the E30👍 There are 2 convertibles where I live one sitting in the road white GReg and an H reg in a drive I wish someone could give these great cars a good home I just cannot unfortunately 😏

sold my amazingly cared for, by me, 2009 e81 black m-sport and now i’m starting to heavily regret it.

I guess this helps, im trying go get my first car, mainly for school/working i guess

Too many hoarders holding on to 5 or more, too many nobjockeys charging 3-4x more than they are worth. Hardly any for sale in a condition you would want to drive it if you owned a typical 80,000 mile 8 year old example second hand back then. You are not going to get a bargain these days and even finding a nice set of BBS wheels on sale from somebody who isn't high/a joker is going to be a monumental effort. The party is over for getting that 325i Sport you always promised yourself in the early nineties people.

sub #102 ! got a 88 vert, love the e30 content

Just a nitpicky thing, but a car made in 7/86 would likely be an 87 model year actually

Joss Mas Brow!!

The best bmw ever made I think great car

Pls continue with this content dont go off e 30 .subbed #96

Hi plz i need your help can you tell me how i can be sure that the engine is matching number with the chassi of an e30 i have tje vin number but where is the location on the chassi that show me the nupber of the engine

God bless everyone have a great day be safe

What’s the difference between an “e” and an “I”?

God loves you

All these VIN stickers all over the car are US market only. The European cars didn’t have them.

Lachs-SIlber isnt Lake Silver, its Salmon Silver ;)

Does 316i/318i is good for first car ?

How to buy a good e30: Find one 🙄

That m3 needs to be fixed

For sale a 1989 325i convertible great condition second owner 100 M

I will like to buy that car 🚗 from you

Typical: short shifter and upgraded steering wheel but the rest of the interior is trashed 🙄. This is what we consider in good shape now. E30s need the equivalent to a child services hotline to report abuse.

Who can I talk to that has an E30 or has any experience with it?? Someone that’s real please respond here??

Where can you buy a bmw e30 I can't find any online

I hate it I hate it I hate it when people put their grubby greasy little hands on any of the crystal

Shifter is horrible.

That engine does not sound healthy

Crap audio.

You can't buy e good E30 , because there is no such XAXAXAXAXAXAXAXAXAXAXA retard ............
