Impatiently awaiting notification of a FedEx delivery at home so I can drive this little baby there and back 😂 #ethirtea #e30 #bmw #e30projects #bavarianmurderweapon by @ethirtea

It’s very nice having my car right behind me while I’m doing other stuff 😂 #ethirtea #e30 #garage #bmw #bavarianmurderweapon by @ethirtea

Heyvān is back inside 😍 I feel much happier knowing she’s safely parked inside a building rather than outside, either on my driveway dangerously close to the bins, or elsewhere amongst people with no respect. Not that I’m precious about my car or anything… but if I see anyone touching it without my blessing, the desire to shoot them is intense 💁🏻‍♀️ #ethirtea #e30 #bmw #bavarianmurderweapon #widebodye30 by @ethirtea

Me and my apparently quite sticky brake lights got followed yesterday 😂 Just as well she’s now where she needs to be in order for me to fix that… #ethirtea #e30 #widebodye30 #bavarianmurderwrapon #bmw by @ethirtea

Hello hi! Sorry it’s been a bit quiet here of late. After Trax, I had to wind down for a bit. My body needed a rest, and (more importantly) I had a clutch of baby snakes to deal with as well as a 10ft burmese python to house (in my bedroom, next to my bed 😂). Now all of that is done, and a couple of polar bears, a budgie, a zebra-lion & a stag have also all been stuffed in the meantime, I’m back on car duty! Today I got to work on prepping a new boot lid for paint next week. My current one is not in the best shape, so I’m swapping it out for this new one 😁 #ethirtea #e30 #paintwork #bmw #carbodywork by @ethirtea

Just some exhaust music. Nbd. Should have used my microphone really… phone mic just doesn’t ~get it~ at all. Still sexy though 😍 And yes, she needs a wash but my hands aren’t working rn so 🥲 #ethirtea #e30 #m54b30 #e30projects #blackbmw by @ethirtea

I had a fucking horrible dream last night… I dreamt a Tesco van turned around on my drive in the dark, didn’t see my car and drove straight into the front of her. I took this photo this morning as soon as I laid eyes on her and breathed a huge sigh of relief 😂 #ethirtea #e30 #bmw #bavarianmurderweapon #e30projects by @ethirtea

In honour of one year of E30 ownership, learning about & working on her almost non-stop, and making real progress in my (extremely stressful) mission to overcome my very unwelcome and unexpected fear of driving that has kept me off the road for the last 8 years- a fucking third of the time that I have held my license- here is a selection of my favourite photos of Heyvān 🖤 #ethirtea #e30 #bmw #bavarianmurderweapon #e30projects by @ethirtea

I’ve now owned my little animal, Heyvān, for a year! One whole year of flying by the seat of my pants without a good goddamn clue what I’m doing 😂 Special mentions to @dannthamann for selling her to me, @__kore46__ & @pe67aud for keeping tabs on her progress, @robolobavich for helping me with so much, @kt_jrdnn for hosting Cars & Coffee which was the first meet I took her to, @murderedbmwgxng for welcoming me with open arms and taking such good care of me at Trax, and there are so many more of you I would tag but I don’t wanna be a bore 😂 #ethirtea #e30 #e30projects #bavarianmurderweapon #bmw by @ethirtea

I’m not sure I’ve posted a progress photo of my car’s interior… so here she is. Insulated, sound deadened, carpeted (black!!), centre consoled, full set of door cards, reupholstered rear bench seat, new dash cluster… still a lot to change and to add, heading still has yet to be done etc etc. She’s even more of a fucking pleasure to drive now. Next task for me is to make a gearshift boot & fit my additional temperature gauge because newsflash; mine still isn’t behaving 😎😂 Swipe to the third pic for a before & after of the inside. #ethirtea #e30 #bmw #e30projects #customcar by @ethirtea
