Hi everyone, a guy on R3V said that some of you might be interested to see my Touring because a few of you have imports, what do you think?

I bought this car dirt cheap because it had a cracked head and the car had been sitting around for ages without a head on so the bores were all rusty. I've just finished putting a new engine into it and I've added an iS lip spoiler and a set of 60mm drop springs, what do you all think?

The photo's don't really do it much justice because the weather is really bad here at the moment and it'll probably stay this way for the next 6 months, that's England for you though

very very nice, My brother has one of the first e30 tourings in canada. It's olive green (needs new paint) but besides that it's very nice, there are pics on this forum somewhere.

I don't know why some of the guys on R3V hate tourings because I think they look awesome! The stance of the car with the drop looks nice and aggressive.

Hi Adam! Welcome to the group.

Yes, it's true; E30 tourings have finally made their way to North America--15 years too late!

I picked up my '88 in the summer and absolutely love it. Of course, the only things wrong with mine relate to the wagon-y end of it (roller blind, heated rear window, etc.). I know for a fact that both Initial D.oug and myself are looking for refurbished rear wiper motors. *Choke* they're $350 new from the dealer!

I don't supposed that you know of any place in the UK that that would be willing to sell quality used E30 touring parts to us poor neglected Canadians?

Funny you should mention that, I'm pretty sure I've got a spare rear wiper motor here for a touring, I'll look it out and let you know, it might be a sunroof motor but I can't quite remember.

Thanks, Adam! I'd definitely be interested if you've got a working motor available. Keep me posted.
