    Maybe nice to get as many photos of early BMWs (or indeed of other plumage) as we can. Classics or just plain old...

    Past or present possessions.

    I know we didn't have digital photos in the olden days but perhaps you can take a photo of a photo as I did here:

    My 318i in 1988. Classic or just old?

    I had 5 E21 s in 6 years wish I had kept them , E30s are now getting quite rare aswell ! I got offered a 98 S reg M3 3.2 volution 3 months ago but it had been layed up for 4 years so decided against it , although guy was a dealer still wanted 5k with no mot , service history , or warranty .

    An E36 325i Coupe, the one that started it all. I had just moved to RNAS Prestwick and bought this from Harry Fairburn in Glasgow. I loved that car!!

    My 3rd BMW, E36 328i manual Touring in Montreal blue with black leather interior.

    Can't find a picture of my first BMW, an H reg E30 325i manual Touring in Zinnober Red (I think) and anthracite cloth interior, but it looked pretty much like this:

    BMW-325i-E30-Touring.jpg

    I remember options included rear head rests and a Catalytic Converter (yes, it was a cost option!).

    2nd was an L reg E36 325i Saloon in Boston Green, can't find a picture of that either, can't even find a picture of one like it on the net, it had style 17 wheels which were a bitch to clean!

    E30's are definitely classics and E36's are becoming that way too especially 328i manual Sports or factory Mtecs.

    E36 M3's have jumped about 20% (upwards) in the last 12 months.
