yeah i had one on my old 328i vert mate but thats as i scratched the bonnet really bad
I had a nice 328i with all the m tech kit, leather, manual box, coilovers and 18s, black angel eye headlights, dvd player and few extra mods like better brakes, had it on a m50 and a remap
had it on ebay for 1700 and loads crap offers but wanted another scoob really bad!! and sold it for a quick sale at 1450, There was loads nice e36s for sale about so its a bad market for them i think , people want them standard now

I think they look pretty boring standard. I do like the lower looking with some decent wheels and a different paint job, like white, violet etc 
Probably wont deal (if at all) until near the end of October as I have 5 months tax left on scoob and don't really want to loose a month of it
lol

Go Google a VW based kit car called a "Nova". The whole roof and windscreen lifted up so you could get in and out. Or as I found out, DIDN'T lift up so I could get out.. I had to toot the sad little horn to get rescued or I'd still be there to this day.
The only really cool lift up doors I came across was in an Ultima Chevrolet, which caused a right stir when I popped the door up at traffic lights on a stinking hot day with no functioning air con.

Ultima
:We looked at buying one many years ago (ended up with a NSX instead).
Funnily enough the driver's door was broken

To 19 year old chavs I imagine you will get some bonus points but to the average person not born in the mid-to-late 90's you will get some serious head scratching. They are to the world what three spoke alloys were.
(Except mine, that is 
).

Back in the 70s my Dad (RIP) brought one home one night, as his new company car. Twin-headlight GXL in light metallic blue with the pimpled vinyl roof.
As a small kid, I thought it was the coolest looking car out... Sadly, Mum (RIP) did not (too low for her, apparently).
It went back the very next day, never to be seen again and a little boy's 'fantasy' was shattered thereafter.

I quite like it when you see a 70's or 80's car being driven nowadays
I saw an Austin Allegro the other day on the a14
It was wonderful and looked so different to al the bland euro boxes you get used too - they were a **** cars, even in their day
But they had a simple honest sh*tery about them

My Mk4 Cortina had a black vinyl roof, louvres on the rear window and a rubber boot spoiler, looked the bomb as it was fire engine red.
In my defence it was 31 years ago and I was 17 at the time, I still miss that car even though it was nothing but trouble, passed my test in it and it was a proper babe magnet.
