KILLER RUST ATTACKS! BMW E30 Owner Update - It's BAD News! 😧
Latest update on my 1989 BMW 325i SE (E30) - the #BCGBMWE30 - it's been fantastic throughout 2023 - but now there's BAD NEWS!
Work to get it through the MOT turned out to be far more complex and costlier than anticipated. But that's not the worst of it, there's rust on the bulkhead. It's easily solvable... if you take the engine and part of the interior out!
Suddenly this has turned into an expensive restoration job! Arrghhh!!!
It could be way more than I can justify on a car that, as utterly brilliant as it is, was supposed to prove that you can daily-drive a classic in London. Except that the whole of London now has ULEZ (the Ultra Low Emission Zone) and driving this incurs a daily £12.50 charge. Which means I'm driving it much less than I was.
Could this be the final straw that broke the camels' back? Have they made it impossible to run and enjoy a usable classic car?
What should I do next? Tell me in the comments.
