I'm putting these two up on eBay this week.I'm just seening if theres any interest here.The blue one is a 1998 740i. 4.4 V8,5 spd tiptronic box,Leather etc etc.T&T'd, and my daily driver...oh yes.Just think,4.4 V8.Put paddles up behind the wheel to tip the shifts.Hmmm.
The white convertadribble is a 335i.I've fitted a 3.5ltr 6 into it.It has a 4spd auto box.Starts and drives,needs finalising-shaking down.I'm going to start them at £1600 for the pair on Thursday.I will put a post into bargins elsewhere once they are on the Bay of E.
Cheers,Richard

And yes, sell them separately!

seperate. i'd say both are pretty good (the E30, well, better than 'pretty good' )

you'd get near £1600 for that alone

i think most people would be put off by the two together. if i was looking for anohther E30 (which i think i kind of am... but i'm not buying at the minute) i'd be put off by having to take the 7 series too

Definatley sell them seperate mate. Like chaps have said, people will be put off by 2. PLus theyr not so easily collected etc.

Id love them both. Iv always liked both of them.

What else does the 335 have left do do?

I am actually looking for an e38 740i. I would take that off your hands. How much do you want for it?

Again dont sell them together.

Hmm bmw v8......

Thanks for the interest.I've had 2 goes with the E30 on eBay.Heres my orginal post here.Not a sniff...When it was last on 2 others made 1500 and 1300 quids needing more work...?an offer near a grand will see it off.Its a good solid shell.Been waxolyd since new I think.
It just needs final fettleing then testing.Tracking and camber setting up.Headlights levelling.A good week of evenings bash really.It has a adjustable rear beam on it.Notice how straight the rear wheels are.Not many e30's this low without daft camber.
I haven't tried the 740i yet.I'm still using it and loving it.Its a proper nice car.Its in fair condition,I've seen much worst and seen better,I'm hoping to see the right side of 1200 pound really.Its cheap at that.Cheers,Richard
