Hello. New owner of an '89 325is here.

[knowmoore]

I took ownership of my sister's bummer this week and am interested in taking classes and learning from other owners of e30s. Is this club more oriented towards newer cars, or is the club for all model years? Any advice?

Thank you!
David

Hi David! One thing you'll notice about our club is the diversity. We have plenty of e30 owners and many drivers of older, vintage BMWs, but we also have a good amount of newer BMWs too. One thing that everyone shares is the love for the brand and you'll find many owners who can easily walk you through any issues you may have with your new-to-you e30.

Thank you, Paul. I saw something about a workshop where I might be able to get help learning about and fixing my 325i. I live in DC. What would it cost to attend?

Attend a few events, meet other E30 owners, and perhaps you can get together with them on the weekends to work on the car. Purchase a Robert Bentley Publishers E30 repair manual from Amazon, eBay, or the various forums - bimmerforums.com, bimmerfest.com, r3vlimited.com
