e30 c2 2.7
hi ya guys ive come across a c2 2.7 that has been off the road for some years how do i comfirm if its a geniume car what do i look out for and any contact numbers to run the vin thought when i go to purchase it ta
like Hap said, 4 digits stamped near the inlet (close the front I think on the M20?) but they also had a number hand stamped on the block.
Black valve cover and possibly inlet manifold. Green tyre pressure sticker to one of the door shuts (or possibly on the boot trim, seen it there a few times now). But pull the ECU and it'll have an Alpina sticker fitted. Possibly could still have its Alpina Boysen exhaust?
Dash, orange needles, Alpina markings etc, steering wheel, gear knob, is it a std BMW sport interior?
That'll point to if 'was' a C2 at one point but obviously the car is really the parts its made from and if any of those are missing then it could be a hunt to track the bits down.
Pics would be good if you have them?
Do you know the VIN, as some of us have a few scant details of some C2's that passed through Sytners back in the day.
You could try calling Sytners directly, but i'm not sure how receptive they are these days to enquiries on the older car.

I personally think 15-20k is a bit to high, 10-15k is the right mark... Few have sold at that price but it would be almost impossible for them to hit the 15k plus mark at this time. Btw nice car
Just out of curiosity is this cars engine capacity down as 2693cc or as 2494cc?
