This is hot hot hot. The insurance friendly xr2’s smaller brother.

These were big in my peer group, and not hugely slower than the real deal on the exmuff seafront Friday night drag races...

^James Todd who i  went to school with, got one of these, cos he left school and got a job at British Steel.

i went on to 6th form.

i was much jealous, at the time!!

i'd have thought that the festa sport would be extinct by now.

its a lovely crab, that i doubt is really worth £8k, and is a colour that some people will hate, and others will love.

i do like a crab, and a 6 cylinder one is even nicer.

Not many 525es left anyway, as the E30 crowd used to rob them for the engine - something to do with either the cylinder head or engine block being perfect to combine with bits from another BMW engine for some serious output.

525e was supposed to be the economy car. Rev limit more akin to a diesel (4800 rpm), plus some very tall gear ratios, and loads of low-down torque.

No they were a factory option, very rarely seen.  
One of the dinner ladies at my school had a Wolseley Six in metallic turquoise  with Rostyles  and blue velour seats, she was also very well endowed in the chest department. Both she and that Wolseley have got a lot to answer for in my messed up psyche to this day.

A 525e was a 2.7L M20 block with a restrictive head (200). It had a longer stroke and bigger bore, but lower rpm and did exceptional mpg.

Put the eta (e) 2.7 block , rods together with 325i (m20b25) head (885) and pistons and you had a 2.7 high compression lump.

Good for about 30-40bhp over the m20b25s 171bhp.

Head gasket on these looks like a piece of piss, even for an incompetent like myself.
