Well guys, after much deliberation, alot of financial... issues, and after one year of prowling the forums with my "Soon to be E30 325" What i drive note, yesterday i finally closed a deal for a new car, which i will, hopefully, be picking up later today after sorting out insurance in a couple of hours.
If all goes well, she's a 1992 E36 318i. White with grey bumpers, cloth interior, she seemed to drive well, took her to my friend's uncle whos a mechanic. He approved of the thing, said the brakes need a bit of tweaking as does the wheel alignment. The exterior of the car is nearly perfect, theres very very few signs of rust (although there is a tad rust here and there in places that are hard to spot). What really sold me on this car was the condition of its interior. It had been a single owner car, lady driven, and the interior really feels like its been absolutely untouched. It has a full service history with 240k (kilometers) on it. The only thing that will require changing (immediately) are the headlamp covers, because they have become yellow, so ill grab fresh ones for it as soon as i pick up the car.
I absolutely cannot wait for this, because, having driven many cars before that didnt belong to me, this is the first car im going to be able to call my own, and i struggled quite hard in order to get the cash for it. It really is the perfect "back to school" present for me, and im looking forward to great great great times ahead with her!
Pics will come as soon as i pick her up and do a nice wash'n'wax job with her (ok that doesnt sound right) at my friends house. Can't wait to share it with you guys.
I have been waiting for this for too long LOL!
