BMW E36 donor - where to look?

Hey up.

I'm looking for a BMW 3 series (e36) donor car, crashed, MOT failure, anything as long as it's cheap.

What's the best place to find one?

(I'm a Ford man, me)

Cheers

Chris





Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

You could try FAB recycling, in cinderford, in the forest of dean. They dismantle written off Beemers, I get parts from them when I need to. Not sure what they'd charge for a whole car, but they'd be worth a go.

Cheers

With the monumental sales of his current book, I'm surprised he's not made an offer to the Quandt family

Yep it's for another book, my kids need shoes!

Any more ideas?

Anyone got one lying around?

Hmmm?

Cheers

I have a BMW 1.8si coupe for sale, been in a small knock on a roundabout so will need a new half shaft on the passengers side. Other then that it's good, be great for a donor. Full BMW service history recent full service.

Open to offers, live in Farnborough.

e36coupe.com tends to be a good place to look for technical info, Chris

I use it a lot, as my daily drive is a modified 328 touring.
