So I thought I'd update this thread with some of the rides that I've added, some were passed on to fellow fanatics and one particular beauty was lost which that im still gutted about :cry:

Firstly, some pics of Emma before we parted :blowheart:

More to follow.....


Now as I mentioned in my initial post, I've alsways had a soft spot for the E36ers so I ended up buying 4 of them, 2 of which I still have :rollsmile:

This beauty was purchased from a fellow fanatic and passed on to another

Then followed this beauty from another fanatic as well, this is still the cleanest and neatest E36 I've had. This was also passed on to a fellow fanatic and is still in very good hands

I always loved the shape of the E39 and I couldn't resist this one when a fanatic had it up for sale so in came my first 5er. No words can explain how great the condition of this car is in for its age, it's truly unbelievable.

I felt it could do with a slight facelift in front:

Now I just need some style 32 wheels to finish this beauty off


And finally some pics of the Cabrio, a true classic in my view....

That 330d really was something. I remember being astounded as to how you managed to find a better e46 than the 330i ;)

As Adis said the e46 with the red interior was really something else. In any case GOD always knows best. Current setup.isnlooking good as well. I think gizmo has a set style for the e39.

Out of curiosity, you went from an e36 to a mix of e46's and e90's and back to e36 because of that itch... has that niche been filled or were you left disappointed because the e36 has aged now compared to an e46 and e90 which are much better in well almost every aspect.

Oh BTW those contours look awesome :)

Hey bud, so the E36ers for me is like the high school sweetheart coz it jus brings back soo many memories for me. To be honest I rate the E46 as a better car and I wouldn't mind a 330i or 330d Indy but the E90 doesn't excite me at all. Yes, the 335i and the new generation 330d's are awesome but I prefer an old school straight 6.
I find the new generation 3 series too big and too refined compared to what it was.
The E46 M3 is in my view is the perfect car BMW has ever produced and still remains my all time favorite.
The E36 in terms of interior quality sux tbh but I love the suspension, size and overall drive so I honest don't mind the dated interior.

That convertible is quick.

Thank you kind Sir, after all it was your hammer and chisel that got it soo mental. The low end torque is unbelievable after you worked your magic :ty:

You guys are looking at some of the cleanest BMWs in the land, moose knows how to shop for cars and it shows in the clean specimens he finds. I'm still sad about your 330d though, it ended up at MD house and I bought a few parts off of it so it lives on in other fanatics cars.
Your 32's are patiently waiting on month end.


For driver involvement nothing can beat the e36.


Would like to see a 4door e36 m3 in your collection one day...

Thanks Gizmo, would love to add an E36 M and a Z3 MCoupe to the collection at some point....


Gizmo, Peter and Alex have helped me keep these babies in tip top condition over the years as my cars will not see a dealership. THANK YOU to you guys :ty:

So another update on the Cabrio, finally got down to putting the contours on with some new rubber and gave her a good polish coz I felt the paintwork needed some attention.
