Hello all, I'm a soon to be BMW convert. I've been into Volvos and own a 1998 V70R. Recently I have been looking for another project because I'm ready to move away from the Volvo. Main reason is the lack of availability of a mt for the R AWD.


All that said, I am currently researching buying either an later model E30 or an E36. I really like the look of the E30s but I like the fact the E36s have a timing chain rather than a belt. What are some of the things I need to look for when making my purchase?


Also, I am a bicycle aficionado and have worked on bicycles for 20 years. If you need any advice on that front, hit me up.
