Right, I'm going to start taking my E36 to bits as it's the only way I'll get back the money it owes me. Hoping to have it stripped over the next 8 weeks (as I have other better things to do).


Before I start listing every single part on ebay, anyone here need anything from it? Parts will probably be available in a few weeks depending on what you need (I want to keep it rolling as long as possible).


1997 E36 318Ti

IRO 70k miles
Standard 15" alloys (will have to confirm tyre situation)
In lovely Cordobarot colour (strange cross between burgundy and purple)
Interior in matching colour
Mint leather steering wheel
Genuine BMW rubber boot liner
All electrics functioning

Only thing wrong with it is head gasket - replaced the head gasket but now coolant pressurises. I'm fairly certain it's a small nick on the surface of the head which I noticed when refitting it (but didn't think it would be a problem), so a skim will probably be needed to get the engine operational again.

Engine starts and runs fine, all ancilliaries appear in order.

Everything else is spot on - or at least was when I last drove it last year.



I imagine people here will only be interested in the diff but still thought I'd post it up.

Cheers,
Pavs

funnily enough I bought almost exactly the same car (98) a couple of days ago for my wife. I'm hoping I won't need lots of parts but I'm very much at that 'have I bought a lemon or a bargain' stage. If it all starts going wrong in the next couple of weeks I'll know who to contact.
