Your First BMW - what was it? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

bornadog335i · 12-18-2012, 03:52 AM

Looking through some old photos I found a pic of my first BMW, a 318is purchased in 1990. It was a gutless little machine but I loved it. Two door, manual with a sunroof (also manual winding

)

Here is a pic.

What was your first BMW?

Nice thread!

Mine was a '84' 323i E30 coupe. Back when 18's were massive! Works VSSD and they weighed a tonne!

Also notice the twin dump pipes at the back..

Kaitan, do you live at Rhodes too?

JJH_335 · 12-21-2012, 01:26 AM

My first BMW was a Hartge H23. It came off the factory as a 1985 323i but then converted to H23 specs and sold new with big valve head, lumpy cams, extractors, exhaust, suspension, yadda, yadda ... went well for the period but a dinosaur by today's standards. Still wished I had it.
