Car of the Week – E30 BMW M3
This week’s Car of the Week is an obvious one, but well worth writing about all the same.
I found this car last week about 5 minutes after i posted about the Mercedes 190E Costworth that I found on Pistonheads and I knew that I just had to feature it as COTW. The car is a stunning example of the legendary first M3 made in the 80 ‘s. The car that has caught my eye is one of the best examples of the E30 M3 i have ever seen, with no expense spared in its up keep over the years and with all of the ‘right’ bits and pieces to make this car truly mint.
The M3 in question is a 1990 Jet black M3 Evolution, with only two UK owners since the import from Germany. As all other E30 M3′s the car is left hand drive, but you can’t let that put you off, as this only adds to the driving experience. The car has only 206333km on the clock (128k miles) with full service history to back it up.
The car is immaculate, the paint has been fully detailed so that you can see your perfect reflection in it, with no dents to spoil those timeless lines. As i said, there has been no expense spare with this M3, with a new BMW fitted engine entering the car around 25k miles ago (due to an error when BMW fitted a recon head) and a stainless exhaust being fitted to replace the old standard one. Like the rest of the car the engine bay is spotless and looks like you could eat your dinner off it.
The interior of the car too looks like it did when the car left the factory. The black and red high back Recaros feature no wear or tear at all, and look just stunning in the car. The steering wheel is said to have ‘some wear’ but at least this shows that the car has been driven, unlike some other cars of this standard.
Enough of me talking about the car, enjoy these amazing photos.
