This E30 318i has a swapped M50B25TU inline-six from an E34 5 series, delivering 190 hp through a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 3.45 differential. It pairs classic E30 dynamics with the added power and smoothness of BMW’s later-era M50 straight-six. The car has received significant mechanical attention, including fresh fluids, spark plugs, sensors, rocker cover gasket, new battery, radiator with electric fan, VANOS rebuild and a compression test showing 13,5 bar across all cylinders. With some remaining cosmetic and minor mechanical items to sort, this E30 is a solid choice for further enthusiast enjoyment.
