I havent checked prices for E30 M3's in a couple of years so is £6k not enough these days?  For £10k + I would not buy an E30 M3 - I think its a bit too much money. I realise that this may well be their value and am not denying that but I'd buy something else (like an Integrale or R32 Skyline etc - totally different cars I know but of a similar DNA - late 80's/early 90's race/rally inspired cars)



Id like to take this oppurtunity to point out that I AM NOT this user! He just has similar views to my own. I expect you all to rip him to peices as well

Although I see there is a very nice black one in the trader for similar to what I'd like to spend (6995 i think it was advertised for) so maybe not all is lost...

Independent still have 1 or 2 on their site...

Independent

If it is not shown on the sales page with pictures, click for the full list (word doc) and the list contains more..

Some advise, do get an independent check on the car and if any works are needed to make the car 'perfect' for you, then get it in writing.

Some of the text in the word doc...

"BMW M3 coupe, 90/G, 215BHP, alpine white, grey cloth, factory sunroof, air conditioning, big board computer, adjustable suspension, just 48,000 miles f.s.h, original unmarked car, very rare now in this condition                                 £10500
BMW M3 coupe, 90/G, alpine white, full black leather, 16” alpina alloys, UK car with just 58,000 miles f.s.h,"

This time last year i was trawling through auto trader and the net looking for an e30 m3 and there were loads advertised so i could basically pick a clour i wanted and look at only one colour.  There appeared to be fair few advertised in bmw car aswell. Eventually bought mine from an ad on this site but looked at a number of others before settling on mine.

This year however, it appears as though there are hardly any out there, where have they all gone?  Definitely appears to be drying up.  More enthusiasts buying now and holding on to their investments i suspect.

i was at munichs on sat saw the white one. loads of money but very clean and only 7,000 miles from new would almost be a shame to use it. Other than that they didn't seam to have many in stock is the supply of decent cars drying up?

Hi,

Could anyone give me some contacts in Germany (or whereever) that specialise in E30 M3's. I want to buy an E30 M3 but there are next to none for sale in the UK so I'm willing to go to Europe to buy one.

Or even E30 M3 specialists in the UK who charge a fortune for these cars


Many Thanks

D
