Thanks mate
Trying to keep fairly standard, has a chip and a big bore throttle
body, a stainless pipe and now some clear front and side lenses...
Got her last April and love it - currently on 88K with FSH all mots etc...
Here are some recent pics after my wheels were refurbed...

Hi there, welcome to E30 ownership mate, glad to see you've made it over to the zone too!
As you can see I'm addicted to E30's at the moment!

Sad news that lovely sport has moved on 
Techoviolet - the exhaust I am reliably informed by Simon (above) is a
long life system made in Wales - it is identical pattern to a Magnex
though and sounds just like one too...!
Scorpions sound poor imo but as the centre section sounds hollow...you should probably have a listen to a few...

Yes mate, looking for an E30 M3, and actually going to view one today!!
I think (not 100%) that you can't get hold of magnex anymore.
I've got a sebring on my touring, and it does sound very nice, not loud but sounds nice at the right times. Very expensive though, and they don't supply the centre section for a 2 piece system.

the only full stainless system ive seen for the sport including manifold is scorpion,but ive heard mixed reviews about them,mostly that they're too loud,they look quality though.id like to fit a complete system if possible.any other suggestions anyone?
