Mark-e21 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Great to see such a diverse mixture of cars owned & driven by forum members.

As a fan of 80's BMW's I have owned a few early M535i's but now the kids have flown the nest I have an e21 323i. Although the standard 323 is a nice enough car I have fitted an Alpina spec 2.7 engine and later injection, uprated the suspension and inside there's leather Recaros & decent ICE. The bodyshell was totally restored just before I bought the car 2 years ago so there's no rust either. Better than that, there's no depreciation either!
My wife used to drive an 02 VW Passat but she's sold that before it became worthless and bought herself a 2002tii instead. It might hail from 1974 but it still gets used everyday and the only concession to modern motoring has been a 5 speed gearbox.
