Steve didnt own that RST. And lets be honest any BMW with "M" then a number is faar better than ANY RS Trouble. E36 is a damn fast car, and unlike a RST is driven through the correct wheels.

Thats a real shame, but I can understand why you'd break it as, like you say it is probably the best way of getting the most amount of money back for it

Shell looks like a good'un though, could do with that for mine

shame really. I considered breaking mine but I wanted someone to enjoy driving it after all the money/work I'd put in. Possibly could have got more money in bits but decided to wait and let it go whole.
