FFS! That is poor show :-(
I suppose there are peaks and troughs with things like this. We just have to be patient but it's a bit difficult to do that when you have your eye on another car!

Really surprised this has not sold yet.
I thought there was more demand for E28s out there!!!

Hmmm.. I would want no less than £2500 as it's in really good order and has lots of nice parts fitted. WOn't be an instant sale though

Wow, nice car matey. I have an original RS1600i in white that I am restoring at the moment. It's back from the body shop as a shell so lots to do but it's all complete. Some pics below of it just with all the parts put together and some bits fitted just so they don't get lost. Lots of cleaning involved before it's properly assembled! The RS800i would be a perfect companion and could be my daily driver but I would have to sell my BMW E28 first...

That is lovely.
I have one in similar condition which my Dad bought new in 1985. Also in Black (which was the only colour which cost more money!) but the stripes and text on bootlid on mine are opposite colours. I often saw this even when these cars were new.
I don't think they are Magnex zorsts as the tail pipes look just a tad too big in diameter. This was a popular mod in the '90s by many owners though and sounded really good. Reminds me I should dust off the old girl who hasn't seen daylight for a few years.
GLWTS, I'm sure you will not have trouble in doing so :-)

I was on the M25 this morning as usual travelling to work on my 30 mile commute. See a police Volvo in the LH lane (I was middle lane) and pass him doing 75 ish MPH. He pulls out behind me and turns on the blues and twos, pulls me over on hard shoulder and asks "Do you know why you have been stopped?" I said No to which he replies number plates are illegal (See pic below). Ok fair enough you have me bang to rights officer etc. but I thought the £100 fine was a bit steep. £100 fokin pounds!!!
So if you have these on your car, I would remove them asap!! Certainly not worth being £100 out of pocket for :-( screen shot on pc

Looks really good mate. Makes me miss my Mk1 Metro Turbo that I owned in 1994 even more. Mine was an '83 car in AR Zircon Blue (Black lower half with red Turbo graphics) and also had most of the fluid drained by the previous owner. it sat very low but was the bees knees as far as this 17 year old was concerned! Met it's end when a Peugeot 205 XS went in to the side of it :-( I suppose the engine from A462 VYE was fitted to a mini not long after....
How rare these are now..

A minor point I'm sure, but you are advertising the car as 10 years older than it actually is...

Hello all, Apologies for the delay. That Volvo Estate is not something that would take my fancy I'm afraid. Sorry.
Damlow, Although probably a late reply now, but that Audi 80 is the right sort of car but the condition and spec are what stops me from going further.
BavarianRetro, As interesting as the E30 sounds, chrome bumper and 6 cylinder would have been preferable. Even then I suppose I see lots of E30s driving around and no E28s which make the E28 that much more desirable in my book. Sorry if I have misled anyone in any way. Wasn't my intention and I suppose I am still not sure I want to do this. I just thought if someone out there had a similar situation to me then it could work providing the car for swap was of equal retro 'status'.
LesbianSeagul, When I am interested in selling for cash, you are the first person I will contact :-) In the mean time there are a few E28s on CarandClassic...
For now though, I suppose I've realised that I am better off holding on to it. You can also blame my missus for that as she said I will miss it too much if I get rid and for me not to do it.
I may well change my mind next week, who knows, that desire for a W126 300SE may come back in force :-)

Oh was that your car? I remember reading a post when you first got it. Didn't know you had got rid of it.
Maybe you are right, I will probably kick myself later on but I am finding myself drawn towards an old 7 series or a W126 Merc...
