Hi People . . . Help please

Postby Scooby on Tue Oct 20, 2009 5:13 pm

Hi Guys,

I'm after a new car and thinking of a 325/8 coupe. I'm new to this forum. . . can anyone help where the best place is to look? I havent got a great budget at all. I have a VW Corrado at the moment, would consider a swap with a bit of cash.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Rich

Hi,
I'm in the Midlands, just North of Birmingham.
The Corrado is a 91, 1.8 16v in white (RARE). Had the engine out over the winter and replaced around £300 worth of parts. Needs a little work doing but nothing major. e.g, passenger door handle needs replacing, slight wobble in steering wheel between 50-60mph (wheels need ballancing).
It is lowered 50mm, 17" alloys, Clear Rear lights, HID headlights, Stainless Exhaust, Black bumper strips removed, Colour coded grill. Value around £1,500 - £1,800. Mint looking car.
Budget is around same value as car.
Cheers,
Rich

I bought my mint condition, hellrot red 323 coupe in newry for 1100sterling. Cost almost the same to reregister it down here in the south.
Iv also a few friends that go across the pond and bring a few bmws across here to sell.
Your best bet, cause the e36 is so well built and reliable you can get decent cond ones in autotrader and cbg. I bought mine for next to nothing 5months ago and iv still not had to do any major repairs to it. Check out car auctions aswel, iv picked up a few gems at them, as long as you know what to look for.
Hope it helps.
