    Posted: 17-May-2006 at 07:08
Have decided to sell my Impreza WRX estate, and to buy a 318is e30

Am looking for one with the following spec:

black or silver 
Must have leather
BBS 15's
Running perfectly
Perfect body work - no rust
Limo preferably

Am willing to spend the right money for the right car.

Does anyone know of any 318is' that fit the above spec that are for sale?
If you do please PM me or call me on 0863535688

Regards,

Graham

jaysus boss your not fussy!!!

No dark grey cars were made in the is model - silvers alright but no dark greys

Very hard to find one with leather too! Get one with cloth - sell the cloth on ebay and buy leather on ebay!

Just in case you didnt know 15's and lsd were options on these cars as well.

Lol.. Cheers Eamo.

Was told that by a fella on e30zone about the dark grey colour too. Dose, it's my favourite colour e30. Silver or black so I suppose.

How handy would it be to pick up a leather interior? Are they on ebay much and what price abouts do they go for?

Gutted I sold my 318is before, had the lot. Panels were a bit scabby but it was a great car.

Ya I spotted that on the autotrader. Looks well enough, but it's white. Not fond of e30's in white.

Under the engine bay looks a bit dirty and rough too. Could just need a clean but does not give a good impression, especially if it's from a garage. Surely they could steam clean it before the pics.

Find a 325i Sport in Dolphin.

Also, I wouldnt touch a car that'd had its engine steam cleaned. Can wreck the electrics... and a clean set of engine mounts isnt worth a new ECU!

Want a 318is because of cheap tax, insurance & running costs. A 325 would be about as expensive to run as the WRX.

If you prep the electrics and don't concentrate on them, an engine bay can be cleaned very well. Have done it lots of times to all my cars and have never had any electrical problems.

If by panels you mean door panels, my Tech has a set of four (black).  They came from an E30 325is.  They are in good shape.  Also have the rear seat (black leather) in good shape.  If you are interested I can email you a pic.  I do not know what he wants for the lot but you can make an offer. PM if you want to talk.

I don't have that car anymore, I sold it.

Won't be looking for interiors, parts etc. till I get a car first.

Thanks for the offers though.

@Killian; Sorry about the double thread. Thought the e30 register forum was seperate to this. Cheers for putting in the link.
