What cover have you gone for? I wanted one for the 4C but everything I’ve read suggests they just make things worse, trap moisture, bugs, cause more scratches than they avoid etc.
I keep reading the same.

We went for the Outdoor all season one from AutoCovers - it does seem the best one we've had. The previous one was a cheap one and boy could you tell. The wind ripped it to bits and that's on a sheltered and closed drive way. I need one on it as there's a tree above the driveway so leaving it without seems a little dangerous.What cover have you gone for?

because they have to meet body tyre coverage for the range of ETRTO tyres in that size range. often the OEM selected performance tyre has neat square shoulders so don’t sit as flush with the body as the wangli ditch finder balloon tyres they had to set the wheels up to.
but you already knew that yeah?

Godlike E31
Its quite sad actually - not been on the road for 10 years. Needs a few bits doing, nothing major fortunately, a few of the parts are getting hard to come by now though. It was my father in laws before he died and it got left to us but its not really feasible for us at the moment to put it back on the road. He used it as his daily motor from brand new, 150k of well enjoyed miles I would imagine. We will get the old girl back on the road at one point. Good looking car though!Don't post porn in here dude.

Those 8 Series were like a grand car 10 years ago. No idea how much they are worth now but more than likely a lot. I remember people were buying them for engine swaps because they were so cheap.
You can still pick up a battered one for peanuts
£7000 is about rock bottom for an 840ci. With the more desirable ones like 850csi manuals asking up to 10x that.
They bottomed out years ago at 2 or 3K for a dog and 5 or 6K for a fairly tidy one.I would imagine they have bottomed out now too, and good ones will start to see tidy increases. Retirement fund!
I'm now wondering what they cost new, and what that would equate to with inflation now, I would imagine a pretty penny. Not a bad motor to be doing Sheffield to Manchester everyday.They bottomed out years ago at 2 or 3K for a dog and 5 or 6K for a fairly tidy one.
