So an update is long overdue, I'll just leave these here...

Found this beauty not to long ago with 95km on the clock :)

But it needed a wheel and was lucky to find another hardtop :)

So what colour you going to make the roof?


I smell mtech bumpers and wide beadings in future.



I think the top should be white, it's grey at the moment which doesn't look awful but I think it should be white.

Hey fellow Fanatics, I just realized that I haven’t updated this thread in over 4yrs so here goes....


I’ll start with the ones that got away....

Im glad to say that this beauty went to a fellow fanatic and is probably still sub 100km on her.
By far the neatest E36 Cabrio I’ve had:

Next up was this E39 540i purchased from a fanatic, what a pleasure to drive this V8

Then came the itch to get a V8 M3 in manual format and I’m glad that this also went to a fellow fanatic:

The E92 325i followed suit:

Then I felt the need to experience the V8 M3 in DCT format and I found this beauty in an individual Moonstone colour, pics really don’t do this colour justice, it really is something to admire:

Then thanks to a good mate he sent me a lead on this E36 with just 40,000km on the clock and I couldn’t resist:

I then took on a project that I always had an urge to do and that was to restore an E30
I honestly think every BMW Fanatic should have an E30 in their life.

This was what she looked like when I picked her up:

And so the transformation began:

Some absolute Stunners there!
Which do you miss the most and post pics of the current man! :praise:


Thanks bud, it’s really difficult to choose as each one of them came with their own story and memory.
What I can say is the following cars have left a lasting memory and hence I’ve replaced some of them:
- E46 M3 (these cars and that S54 just puts a smile on my face like a kid in a candy store)
- E30 325i the white one in particular because of the journey through restoring it and a really close mate of mine helped me through this journey
- I have a thing for Cabrio’s so that white 328i Cabrio was special
- I’ve added an Avus E36 M3 to my current cars which I’ll post up as this was my teenage crush car that I always wanted along with an Estoril Z3 M Coupe however the latter has escaped me
- I rate the E46 330i manual as the best daily drive and the E39’s are just so solid and comfortable, I doubt anyone can break them
- And lastly there’s just something special about a manual V8 M3

Hey Guys,
So although I've been on the forum for a while now and it's already part of my day-to-day routine - I lose count of how many times I check this site a day, I don't think I've properly introduced my rides previously....

So here are a few that I managed to take some pics of at some point, sorry for some of the poor quality pics, I'm by no means great with a camera in hand.

These are just some of the more recent ones, it's a pity I didn't take any of the e36's as I miss these the most.
The e36 M is like my Elanor - don't think I'll ever get a chance to own one.
:praise: :praise: :praise:
Truly inspirational - thanks for the share

[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]I still regret missing out on that E92 325i when you had it up for sale. I see the guy that bought it has now moved it along to another owner and I was in for life. I now understand what you meant when you said you collect BMWs. Nice thread.[/font]
