Hi, anyone on here owned one of these?



Been offered one cheap but has a starting fault, sounds like it wants to start but won`t.

Need to know if its worth buying at £200?

The car is in exellent condition, mettalic green and auto, 3.5 litre 2 door coupe with original BBS alloys and cloth interiour.

Is it worth buying?

I don`t know the year as it`s on pp.

0-60 7.4

couldn help ya ste but you startin to sound like auther daly the used car specialist and sales person

gotta find sumink to do to stop getting bored scott

bored wots that

Its a bargan, providing it is what you say it is, the bbs alloys alone are worth near that.

Do it, clean it up and sell on for a profit.

Cheers fella

well a bargan

PROJECT yeeerrrrr!

Superb project.

Rare as Fook...stunning cars like....

Youll find the problem and fix it easy I reckon...

Do it Ste....do it for me

Easy worth the money!!

These are now classics and should easily be worth 10x that!!!

All bits should be easy to get hold of, as IIRC the engine is very similar to the 2.5 straight 6 motors in the E30s

just seen a few on ebay!

I`ll get it today then

i`m listening to you guys here, wish me luck

Pis will be up later

If you wanna make a quick buck, Ill give ya £250 for it

If you need it fixing or lookin at give me a shout.I have owned plenty of E28s(5 series) which the 6 was loosely based on.The engine is the the M30(not the ones fitted in E30s) They are simple engines and very strong...

I think I still have some spare "service" parts for these...somewhere in my garage!

There are only really 3 things that stop these running/starting.Chances are it will be one of these...

i,ll meet you at the garage later dude i,ll get her started

Robbo's goin to do a UE on it

Let us know if you get it started

Obviously the engine itself is different, but I thought most of the electronics where interchangable - like dizzys, sensors, MAFs etc.... - as it sounds like something like that has failed..

that should be fun lol











am in

Who are you buying it off? Sounds a bit like the Starion to be honest. If it doesn't start it could be anything, wiring, ECU, etc.

AFM and dizzy dont fit Stu, this is mainly due to the physical difference in size of the blocks.The M30 engine is huge compared to the M20 in the E30...Parts that are interchangeable include,oil filters,plugs...and that's all I can think of to be honest lol

The car will still start with the afm knackered,but won't rev...does it live yet????

did you get it running, are kid

Hmmm, somethings amiss?

if you want it your more than welcome to it.

scott wants it for some strange reason?

scott always has crazy idea's with big powerful cars, like my nissan qx for example

I wouldn't mind spendin abit of time fault finding with you ste, gives me some thing to do over the hol's and It will good if we could get it going, In return all i ask i for cups of tea and a pack of hobnobs

lol, up to you mate, cheers

cars going but not firing on all 6 ?

Had it not been Xmas I would have been up there with a trailor this afternoon. Got 4 cars at the moment and cant shift them round as all the places where Id put one are all closing up for the break

Good luck...

ooooooo yesssssss we got it runnin last night and OMG it sounds bad its runnin rich the mis-firiin etc etc i think ste got a video of it im not entirly sure

had a laugh scott

WTF, ste i take back my offer lol, looks like you and scott are doin just fine

found an engine today, £150 (if we can`t get this one running properly)

oh sound, so you think the engine's past it then, or just not worth the repair

not sure mate, need to get my ass into gear and strip it down a bit, its been standing for 4 years.

yerr Bmw

Loving Money playing in the background....look like a right laugh hahahaha

quality

yerrrrrrrrr, cars runnin great, all cylinders firing, robbo seen it today

Cleaned up a bit, very good fun

What was the problem Ste?

Not sure mate, spent a late night in the garage with plenty of carlsberg cleaned out the fuel intake,took all leads off, cleaned the plugs, replaced leads, reconnected air flow meter, threw in £20 worth of fuel and soaked the pistons with petrol.
Took all plugs out and turned it over for a bit. Someone must of thought it was the immoboliser as its been ripped out and is in the boot.
Maybe the firing order was wrong? lol

been out in it today, great cars!
