MY BMW E21 story

 E21 Purchased in Switzerland by my father in 1988 with 29,550 miles for a price about 7000 swiss francs, previous owner was a woman. Imported to Serbia and first registered in 2002 by my father , he did some modifications, put sports BMW e21 transmission, changed the complete interior, changed the headlights , put front BBS bumper , did the general engine, and it completely painted.
When I passed the driving test and started to drive, I immediately fell in love with my BMW e21 320, its six-cylinder engine combined with a Solex 4-barrel downdraft carburetor enchanted me with his beautiful sound,This e21  had plenty of power for small  drifting and for a litle driving fast. All in all it is an old classic that will always be trendy BMW e21 320.

I immediately started to modify it, from small little things such as molding, the valve cap lights, some major things I have done: I put 15 inch rims with 195/60 R15 Michelin tires, I expanded wheelbase of 32mm, I have implanted middle and rear remus exhaust. As I installed a fuel gas system that does not give him the same force and sound like the factory fuel but it is much cheaper to drive, since here in Serbia fuel not cheap. In 2010 year I bought a golf v 1.9tdi since that i did not drove my bmw e21 320. Now i planing again to fix my bmw e21 , paint him and again put him on the streets.
