BMW E30 - 3 Series Restoration Bible

Very good book, lots of information with pictures for the DIY E30 owners.

Breat book with many tips and tricks you will not find anywhere else. If you are restoring one of these, it will pay for itself times over again. Only caveat: it was written by a british author and therefore refers to the GB models and therefore is somewhat overloaded with info about models that were never sold here. It also misses some US model info, e.g. 4:10 rear axle ratio that was used here for 325ia cars.

Some nice added insights, not as good as the BMW manual

If you're picking up a 30-year-old E30 and considering he path from beater to classic, this book is a huge and entertaining read to help you get that journey started. Think of this as a supplement to the repair manual, the online forums, and the other how-to guides out there. This relies on the manual, and assumes you'll be ready to look up other things along the way. But it provides significant detail that fills in gaps between what you see in the manual and what you encounter in your driveway on your particular model. Best of all, it's written in an engaging style with a sense of humor. For me, it made the difference between "this is all too much" to "I can do this, and it will be fun!" This will change the way you look at your E30. The days of anxiety and exasperation, where every bent or broken thing is an unwanted repair, will be morphed into days of dabbling, where those things are each a mini-project to be tackled for the betterment of your classic in the making.

This scooter may be ideal for children but it is definitely not for adults. If you're over 6 feet tall, it's difficult to grip the handles without bending your knees and on pavement, adult weight (over 150 lbs) compresses the tires and slows it down. I'm thinking of donating it to Goodwill.

I have read, and reread this book many times over, and I always find more information in it. I do all my own work on my E30 and this book has proven invaluable. unlike most automotive books that focus on one model, this book avoids the misty eyed reverence, and sticks to practical information. I just love it. highly recommended.

ok as an overview but not enough information for the home mechanic restorer.

Great book! Use it with your workshop manual and you will be all set. Covers things you will run into due to age and wear and tear.

Trae mucha información de mi modelo de coche
