Estoril looks wrong on E30's IMO, too modern.

I just want something different. But at the same time... I like grey. haha

do the typical scene thing then and paint it nardo grey because that's what all fast cars are lol. - not implying that your e30 is fast.

You are underestimating my bravery/stupidity.

lol probably! I'm way too sensible! don't think I've been in a dashcam compilation yet lol.

I haven't seen myself in one either...

Nah I try not to drive the E30 too hard around bends because even with its new suspension its no track weapon. Though generally it does handle decently. They are apparently excellent with proper coilovers etc, but if I want to drive fast round corners, I take the other car!

I never had an issue throwing an E30 through the lanes, in fact it was fairly nimble for a RWD car of it's size.

 

[Akagi]

Oh its not bad, but its not on rails like the Corolla is, so if I fancy a hoon I usually don't take the E30.

Nah I try not to drive the E30 too hard around bends because even with its new suspension i'm afraid the seat will snap off it's rusty bolts and barrel roll through a rotten patch in the door.

Fixed that for you

 

[Akagi]

Fixed that for you

I'll have you know that its 98% rot free!

 

[Uncle_Gravy]

So which one is the 2% the seat or the door? xD

 

[Akagi]

So which one is the 2% the seat or the door? xD

1% of each?

Nah theres a bit on the rear panel around the lock, and a bit on the sunroof tray... NEARLY THERE

If you want exciting, the last thing you need is a car that's on rails. I'll take the E30 thanks!

 

[~>Dg<~]

you just need a bag of cement or slabs in the boot

Depends really. I like the Corolla, no understeer or oversteer unless you are going totally mad, just grip grip grip. The weak point is the lack of LSD now.

E30 needs an LSD. I've been trying to buy one for sodding ages but keep getting messed about. Its ridiculous...

no it wont it'll look total Krap in this colour, you'll look like an Arab hotel porter from the Burj Khalifa.............LOL
play it safe mate, go for the original red or a metallic grey.

 

[Akagi]

You dissing Jewish Racing Gold again?

I think I've reverted back to my original plan of Mora... Or maybe Daytona... Or Techno... Or grey...

 

[Diddums]

What colour are you going to spray the wheels? Are you going to have matching mirrors? Skirts? Bumpers? What colour are you painting the trim? What colour are you doing the interior? Leather or fabric? Velour? How about some nice suede rugs? Are you doing the roof the same colour as the rest? What about a vinyl wrap? How about wrapping the whole car?


Here you go buddy
