    BMW e30 Touring

    Heard about this car, a few days ago, on BaT . . .
    https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1993-bmw-316-3/

    Car was only a coupla hundred miles away, so . . . took me a look. Pretty good excuse to take a little drive, too


    I love e30s --- owned 5 of 'em, so far . . . including the latest/current one, a '91 318iS . . .
    https://www.early911sregistry.org/fo...ighlight=318iS

    . . . which I'll prolly have for a long as I'm driving. Now, this particular model only has a 1.8 liter DOHC 4-cylinder --- but it also has a combination of performance and utility --- and just-plain-handsomeness . . . that I really appreciate. And --- after 3 bonks, an off-road 180 on some black ice, and 360k mi . . . let's just say this is one tough (+lucky!) little car

    I've had this Little Beastie ~15 years, now, and while it may look pretty stock, it's really not = no side-markers, Euro lights + grills, +2 BBS wheels, M-Technic spoiler . . . mostly the kind of nonsense only a True Propeller-head would ever notice, much-less appreciate. And I've spent more money underneath the car than whole car cost me to begin with --- with stuff that only the Mechs would ever see/notice. Anyway, I've set-up the car just the way I like it. Nothing more to do

    There's just oooooooooooooone itsy-bitsy-little-thing that I'd like to change --- but can't . . . and that's get a bigger comfier space to put my Nasty Dog


    Luckily --- BMW already came up with a solution . . .


    . . . + prolly my Next Car

    Looks great but I would keep looking for one of those sweet inline sixes!
