Hi Mark

I was supposed to have an advance copy of the mag. Did not know it was published yet. Iain Hamilton, Brendan Purcell and myself helped to write the buying guide. You did not miss any thing yesterday, it was very quite. There was only about 12 traders. The Car Club put on a good show from a BMW Dixi to the latest 6.It was good to have time to talk to people I met some guys from the zone.

Have you seen Practical Classics this month, yet another RED 325i sport ... (Nice piccies Ron!)

Hope you had a good day at Donny Ron, I was too knackered/busy to make it, shame to miss the last meet of the year...

We will have to all get together with the red Sports you me Si and and my mate Parm and have a picy. See you all at Donny. "Its that Ron bloke hassling again"

I just need a car for 1k or less and want it to be an E30. Kinda resigned to the fact it will be slow, but i tonly has too get to work. Later on i might get somethign newere and quicker again and fiddle witht eh E30 as a bit of a project car.

First of I would love to save that 320 but just cant it afford at the moment. Dont think her indoors would like it, she gets enough of BMWs. Perhaps i could buy an E30 registration eh Mark! does she know yet?

Matt
I think you will want a 325i as you will be going from an E36 328 a 318 will seem very slow. You could try for a 318iS but you will need more than 1k. The 325 Tourings seem to be a bargain at the moment.
Wellcome Slondike to the register whats your car?

I'm chopping in my E36 328i Sport for a cheap E30 in the new year (so i can afford to move out of home). Always wanted one. Will only have 1k v.max to spend though. What do you guys reckon i could get?

I'm acctually really excited about it as an E30 was a childhood dream car!!!!
