As well as the Volvo, I've bought this.












It's a 328i Sport, it's done 88k and it's not been painted, it's factory Alpine White, mega rarity.

Needs a couple of bits to bring it back to perfect but it's nearly there.

Also came with genuine M3 mirrors and the original BBS split rims which need a refurb.

Surprised me how quick it is considering it's under 200bhp, I'm sure the other 328i people on here will agree!

Oh and it's a pre 1996 car so it doesn't have traction control, it apparently has an LSD instrad...

Love that, never see them in white anymore.

No traction control will keep you awake, trust me.

Yes and fuck me it's a long way from here! Was 4 hour to get there with a tourist stop at the angel of the north.

Well worth the trip though.

There's a few mods inlet wise that frees up power on these!

Get an Xbrace from a convertible and a strut bar front and rear with a few bits poly'd and you will have a weapon on your hands. Handling will be immense. Also FYI E46 steering rack improves steering and eibach/h&r arb's = goodness

It's got Bilsteins and Apex springs on it so yeah, they need to go...

Keeping my eye out for an inlet already.

Very very happy with it though, it's much better than I thought it would be.

Exactly the same spec as mine Robin. Brilliant choice! Absolutely love the colour. Almost a shame the Amber's have been updated though.

Agree about speed, surprised me too. I'm not even bothered about getting an inlet really. Told you!

I think I'll do the inlet anyway as its cheap power but its not as urgent as I thought it would be.

Did 250 miles in it today and 250 miles in the insignia, the 4 year old car have me a dead leg, the 18 year old one didn't, so comfortable to drive.

Not a fan of them in general but that is extremely clean.
