Excuse me for asking, but what kind of BMW do you have. I have just
purchased a 82 320 and was surprised by the lack of web presence that
BMW's have. I know in looking for LBC web pages, that the MGB has more
than Midgets, but I could only find 1 picture of a 320 after an hour of
searching. I guess we are just prouder of our Spridget than the Beemer
crowd.
Just because I bought this does not mean a shift in my car interests,
but my daily driver is a 86 Lesabre and after having worked on it this
past weekend, I swore I would never own another front wheel drive car.
And as life would have it this beemer got dropped in my lap at a price I
could not refuse. Now I will have something a little more interesting to
drive on the days that top down driving doesn't seem practical.
