I owned a dark blue 1985 BMW 318i, bought it new in Germany. 125 MPH down the Autobahn and it was solid - Loved that car!

The boxy shape of the E30 is timeless. Just like the Proton Satria GTI... it'll still look good amongst the "new kids on the block"

Thomas thanks for sharing your story. Agreed, the E30 has a classic nineties look.

hi chris, a new e30 owner here. are you able the share the name of the shop that specialises in e30 in malaysia?

Munich Precision at PJ. Look for Owen. They don't specialise in E30... but the boss is very experienced with it. It depends whether they can or have the capacity to do it. Take a look and check it out.
