Hi fellas,
I recently picked up another 6-speed project in Spain. Condition of the car is rather poor as it was collecting mildew in an underground garage since around 2010. I already have another thread going as I'm troubleshooting some issues but it should be a fun process.
Here's a little video of the journey so far.
Great story and videography!

Nice find! Looking forward to follow your project.
I especially enjoyed the perfect musical selection at the end while touring the city- ! Great fun to watch your vid.

Great videos....and great humor!
I'm still smiling as I type.
haha, nice video indeed... but seems you can restore "any" 850 with those "obvious" maintenance items..... don't think it's always that simple when there are "real" problems….you must have a good eye in "what" you buy
Thanks, Cartoonz!
Thanks a lot, Mike!
Makes me happy to read this. Thank you!
Thanks, Barry! This is my 5th E31 and each one comes with something new but most of the time, it's the usually maintenance items. I have a feeling the latest one will be biggest challenge, 16 years is a looong time for the car to sit.
Wow! What an awesome 8 series revival! You have inspired me to get a recently acquired non-running 1995 RHD 840ci 6spd msport restored, which has been sitting for 12 years! I can't wait!
Thank you for posting these vids!
Wow, such a great video and well done sir.
Looking forward to this one - can't wait!
Great work my friend
