This guy loves this car...I love that he drives it AND thrashes it 👍🏼👍🏼
How it’s meant to be!!
I would never say he trashes it - he actually uses the car as intended: spirited driving, not pepping it, no reckless driving, no unecessary drivetrain tearing. Really just like it's meant to be. :)
I’m glad this e30 M3 is owner by a passionate owner that drives it. And not stanced out and can’t go over a leaf.
Haha true! This one is in good hands
That induction noise!! 😍😍
Sublime isn’t it
What a pleasure David was to interview about this beautiful machine! We spent a day filming this in the peaks and had some great fun pushing the limits in freezing conditions!!
Anyone that owns a well-sorted good running E30 M3 around the world *you are all GODS in my book!* Kudos to sound investment reasons and sheer driving excitement.
Well said that man!
I only own a stroked 325, but I appreciate your name.
Wicked car, good to see it's being enjoyed and used, nothing worse than some twat who polishes his bad investment.. Just drive!
He has only ever used and driven it as intended!
Fantastic owner and car ! Well done for enjoying it :-) Lovely cars are meant to be driven !
Yes they are!
Brilliant film, well done
Thanks for watching
😎😎😎😎
I have an e30 m3, anyone here thought of swapping the getrag 5sp to an e46 m3 bear box with 3.46 diff into the e30m3?
This car is my dream car
Shame I won't be able to ever afford it...
It’s a special piece of kit
The e30 is a great car all round and doesn't have to be an M3 to enjoy the drive.
True!!
Does anyone know what wheels he has?? I Need these for mine. Really completes the look
I thought they were Speedline SL1508s but according to the markings at 7:14 these are some kind of magnesium O.Z wheels.
Hope I'll be able to afford one of those one day 😍
Quality video, I owned one of these for 15years, I regret selling it now, beautiful machines
Thanks for watching James! We all have cars we regret selling 😅 it’s a curse lol
Great video !!!
M539 sound track on the background🔥
Owned an E30 325i sport many years ago and it was the most well balanced and capable machine on B roads and could have handled much more power! The M3 was the dream! This one is an absolute belter!!
Ah awesome! Yeah it is a beauty
Only an E30 M3 owner can fully understand Dave's infectious passion. I see mine as a thoroughbred race horse; there to be let loose. Unforgivable to keep such a car under wraps as a museum piece. Although I do not drive mine on public roads (don't trust other road users), track days are a given.
Wishing you many years of M3 enjoyment David.
Thanks for watching and commenting! A very special car
Love it, love it ! The sound of this is so much better than all the new turbo charged crap!!!
Don’t make them like they used to!
70 hp and 100 torque increase ?! Mmm...
That's how you love a car, awesome! Same reason why I bought and love my E21, they are just great driver's cars!
Thanks for watching Simon!
I swear thats the best sounding 4 cylinder I've ever heard
"When this came out, all over cars looked the same". LOL
Has he had those dark sunglasses on since then?
hahaha
The legend bmw e30 m3
You know it 👊
I spent a bit of time behind David on a Supercar Driver event earlier in the year.... That thing is mental!
Isn’t it just! He knows how to pedal
He did mention that this thing had surprised a few SCD members at events at just how quick it was!!!
synthwave was definately a nice touch
Yes! I'm glad someone agrees finally with the music choice! 👌👌
Congrat! Beautyful,wonderful,iconic car!!🙄😎😎😎❤️❤️
Iv been addicted to bmws for over 10 years now, the e30 m3 is a dream car What! A noise 😁👍
Nice! Have you owned any M cars? E30 is the daddy
@@scd had a few nice original msports but no M cars sadly, had e34s, e36s, e39s, e46s but no e30s would love one though
I've got exactly the same, bought it 17 years ago and won't go for sale. I love driving it, it's not comparable to newer ones, it's as steadfast as a cart! Funny though you bought a left hand drive, realizing they produced more of them.
Brilliant video, interview!!! I own a very early 86 Euro sadly i don't use mine very much at all but damn there gorgeous cars, Best BMW ever!!!!
I love the e30 m3 but the wheels on this are wrong, anyone agree?
Should be enshrined in law that *all* remaining E30 M3's are running original BBS's!
BMW still has the best induction noise ever
This one is enhanced by the carbon airbox!
Is this the carbon intake from csl m3 sound smiler
Nasser Mohd yep similar
8:00 thumbs Up
Too much owner and not enough car.
In about 10-15 years, this car is gonna worth more, than a Bugatti. Mark my words.
best Cars ever made from BMW and e36 M3 too
Living legends (both the car and the person) 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Best BMW ever. Period.
You know it!
He's living the dream.
Wonderful to watch
Thanks!
That e30 is timeless
all the same you sad for me too, only 27 years. and alpine .
I love these. They look fantastic and this looks like a lovely example that has been cherished but used and enjoyed, and that’s he best bit; it’s not a garage queen.
no garage queens here!
I love this car and his enthusiasm for it. But I wouldn’t like to be him in a classroom when his pupils see this video with him in his sunglasses inside haha
We do too! haha
7:55 Brilliantly said. The notion that cars should be seen as type of investment is ridiculous, they are depreciating assets. If you want to invest get into finance, if you want to drive get a car.
Agreed! Life is too short!!
Does anyone know the wheels?
sadly not, we will ask
TheSUPERCARDRIVER thanks that would be appreciated!
15” Ronal perhaps?
@@scd So did you?
Dude if you dislike, can you tell us, why???
Lol... The one phantom disliker... They never reveal them self 😂😂
Brilliant vid again guys. David is such a nice fella, and you can't help but fall in love with his M3 when he talks about it! :-)
Fantastic! What a hero...
最高にかっこいいです！
E30 M3がほしい❤️
Sick car and great story man, I hope you see this. I plan to do the same with an e36 - the car of my childhood
Great car , shit glasses 🤓
Won nothing rallying , no European Championship , No German National Championship and definitely *No World Championship* that's how good they were 😂
Bet matey can't explain that , even the top M3 drivers ditched the M3 in rallying ...that's *FACTS*
Is it for sale
All ok except the comment "260 torques"...disappointing from a person who teaches engineering....I don't remember that being an SI unit! I guess it was NM. Nice car though & the enthusiasm is good to see.
We love his enthusiasm too!
The Sound is so cool, whooaaa hey.
Isn’t it just 👏👏
If this was based on the 2.5 EvoSport model I could see the 270hp/260Nm claim holding up, but this looks like a standard M3. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong! Be interesting to see a full spec list. Sounds and looks fantastic, good to see it being driven as it was bred to be and not pimped and pampered in some heated underground garage to "protect the value".
Carbon air box, uprated cams, watch the video man
@@Imola.clownshoe Get a grip pal. To raise the power by near 70hp/70ft-lbs would take more than a bloody set of cams and CAI. Answering to a 2 year old post as well? SMFH.
@@sarcastixx74 Not really, the carbon airbox upgrade also entails upgrading the engine management, usually Webber Alpha N or DTA management and loosing the biggest restrictions such as the OE airflow meter. The S14 is already a revvy engine and the head flows extremely well standard.
@@theslimrealshady Kinda makes a bit more sense now, when he said 270 torques I thought he meant Nm, but this was too close to the stock 240Nm and really didn't match the 70+hp increase. 270 Ft-Lbs makes more sense. But getting this kind of increase in any NA bmw is still questionable though, I spent a small fortune on both the E36 Evo and E46 M3 that I had and only seen about a 25hp gain at most from either of them. A 25% power bump in any NA car takes much more than cams/CAI. Not hating on the car in any way though, these cars are still holding their own in terms of handling/chassis dynamics as as an investment the values are still stratospheric 👍
With the 2,5 conversion and some additional parts 270hp are easily available with the s14 but you will pay a lot for the parts. Cams, airbox, Engine management and you will get 250hp but again key is the 2.5 Liter Upgrade.
Either he is a very optimistic gent on the power figures or he passed the advanced course of ‘getting jiggy’ maths. There is no way cams, exhaust, and air box are giving you the power increases he quoted.
He mentioned pistons so he probably did the 2.5liter conversion. With this Setup, cams, airbox and Alpha N engine management 260hp are easily done. Expensive but totally doable.
ahhh one day, mr. E30 M3, i will hunt you, purchase you and keep you forever
Join the queue!
He said "My car likes going sideway anyways". Priceless! Nice car!
haha proper driver!
Can I ask who restored it?
We will find out!
TheSUPERCARDRIVER thank you, I have one that I want restoring, would be very helpful.

270 bhp with an airbox and some cams? Course it is mate! 🤣
Was going to comment on the awful wheels, but then he sits indoors wearing sunglasses so its clear he has no idea about style!
Ok...so the 270bhp is a bit of a stretch.....all the same its a wonderful video. I've watched it more than 10 times. I too have an E30 M3 that i take on long trips and there is absolutely no car that can compare to it. Yes its very valuable but in my estimation the joy I get from it is worth far more than money in my pocket. I'm going to drive the old girl until either she or I give up !!!
My e30 m3 is nicer😎
haha is it now? :)
TheSUPERCARDRIVER
Yours is very nice
But mine is nicer 😎

All that money put into it and no actual dyno numbers?
I don't think David is too bothered about final numbers. More along the lines of how the car feels to drive. Dyno numbers can be made to read almost anything anyway these days!!!
Nobody with an E30 M3 buys it for power
He said it was around 270bhp 260lb-ft
@@PixelVogue The owner mentioned "torques" which really grates. Does he mean Nm or lb.ft? From someone who teaches engineering!!
However, enough grouchiness: superb car and great attitude!
@@secretsquirrel3793 newton meters.
Hmm.. bought one in 91’ - sold it after a few months. For me it was the most disappointing car I’ve ever owned.
Of course I wish I still had it, but only for the potential profit (paid £11k with 16K recorded miles)
Odd, loved the 2 I had. Still among my favourite cars I've owned including tm evo 6, r32gtr, Aston Martin, exige v6 etc. Very special cars if in peak condition. Granted not fast nowadays, but just lovely.
Wow if you could have hung on to it even just for the rise in value! Ouch!
