From my research, Quin direct have the cheapest insurance quotes for first time drivers in E30s (they're half the price of what everyone else wanted to charge me), but you qualify for their policies the car has to be under 20 years older and have an engine no bigger than 1600cc, so that rules a carb'd 316 out on both counts.

And if you haven't already, you should start considering Tourings - They have better weight distro (I heard it was 51/49 as opposed to 56/44 or something) , rot less than saloons/coupes, come with all round discs, 51mm struts, thicker ARBs, are the youngest e30s on the market (they made them until 94 if I remember correctly), are slightly cheaper to insure and have PLENTY of space for spare drifty wheels in the back.
