Looking good Mark! Nice to see an earlier e23. |
E23 enthusiasts/ spotters should also note that there is a very similar one which is often parked in the London Taxi Drivers' base at Royal Oak, near Paddington. It's also on an "X"-plate and seems very well cared-for.
If I get an excuse to go down there, I will try and get some digipics.

Mark, how was the Kent meet? I had hoped to be there, but was at a memorial service.
Are you coming to the BMWCC meet/display south of Maidstone in July? I hope to be there, it would be good to have a mk1 and (my) mk2 e23 on display.

Mark,
the Red Baron looks really good. well done. its looks like you've been polishing and cleaning the Baron, a real labour of love.
is the gearbox behaving itself?

eta, the kent meet was good  my first meet  . nice people BMW oners  .
I would like to show mine if pos, what is the date of th
bmecc meet/display would be great to get to or more e23's together  .Thanks
Philip, Its hard werk cleaning and polashing the Baron and the
frount grils can be a pig but werth it, Hope I can get the back-end
sorted for the bmecc meet/display new boot spoyler is �130 from BMW so
geting one. As for the gear box,  it is werking as it should ad pulls hard in all gears. 300 miles this week. So maybe it was down to lack of use.  we should get a gathering of e23's meet.....and e28's Doive

hi mark sounds like your gearbox might be ok now, it might have been lack of use as you say autoboxes work on presure from the engine so its looking good.
