Good stuff Fabio and welcome to you !!

What is the diff ratio in your car please ?

Oh...tidy little M Fabio and thanks for being part of our crazy crew

 

Hello,

Thanks for the welcome.

If not mistaken, i think it's 3.65.

Regards.

 

Hi Fabio,

If it is the original 320iS diff then it is a 3:46 ratio. You might be interested to know that I have the Baviera car from the Trofeu 320iS and race it here in Mallorca. I take good care of it though, as it is an important piece of Portugese E30 history!

 

WOW!!!

It's you the one who have that car??!!

I have spoken with kiko (Francisco), and he told me that a friend of him is the current owner of that car, so it's you.

Can you arrange me some recent pictures of the car, including interiors and motor? I woul be very gratefull to you. I'm trying to get as much pics as i can of the trofeu cars.
Take good care of that car.

About my car, kiko has seen it and told me that it was in good shape.
About the diff, i think it's the original, at least i never changed it.

Best regards.

 

Hi Fabio,

Good seeing you here. Your car is looking very sharp, oh and I'm from Lisbon. It was nice meeting you briefly a few months ago.

Sent you a PM

Take care

Pedro

 

Hi Pedro,

Thanks fo the welcome.

It was nice to meet you too.

How is your M3? I'm looking forward to see some pics of him.

Best regards.

 

You can see a phew photos on my gallery. Right now it's very near you and being very well taken care of. I will be opening a thread very soon to report on the work being done (2nd time i'm saying this), Well I owe it to very good friend that's helping a lot on this, and will make time to do it.

 

It's the 3.46...

 

3.46

Ok.

 

Some new pics of my car:




Cheers.

Question for you guys in Portugal. I have a second E30 M3 in the UK which I'm considering giving to my younger brother there to take care of. It's UK registered.
I tried to find out from ACP what the process was to import to Portugal but it seemed very expensive, unless:

(a). The car was being imported by me personally (As a personal import for a Portuguese person returning to Portugal - Only snag is I would only be able to personally import one car ever - and I don't want to use up the chance for this car just yet!). This would be tax free.

(b). If the car's 30 years old, it can be imported as a classic. Not sure if it's tax free, but cheaper anyways.

How did some of you guys import your's? - if you don't mind me asking

Cheers

Miguel

 

Hi,

I don't know any laws regarding car imports.

Maybe some other Portuguese member can help you.

Cheers.
