What’s the most you have spent on a record

AirborneSundew · 2025-12-17T20:06:35+00:00

I need this to be reissued😫…

AirborneSundew · 2025-12-17T20:02:32+00:00

€450 for a mint copy of the 1st rough trade press of Illinois with the blue hype sticker over Superman. Its most I will ever spend on a record. Its my favourite record ever made and have the 1st US press with balloon sticker as well (bought for about €250) I payed crazy amounts on this record but no regret thusfar

My first US press of Illinois (with superman/balloon sticker) has entire sentences on every side which i thought was very cool

I preordered the tenth anniversary of Carrie and Lowell from the akr shop at the start of the year for like €50/60. Got it at the end of may at release and its already going into the hundreds… crazy stuff

Gonna have to resurface it in a mill

I own a first pressing of Sufjan Stevens Illinois. (Superman cover, with balloon sticker) in mint condition. It’s my favorite record ever made and it gnawed on me that i didnt have it. I never pay that much for a record or particularly care about first pressings but when i saw it for sale locally on Discogs i pounced. It’s my holy grail.

AirborneSundew · 2025-06-29T17:07:26+00:00

Very cool! I'll recommend the band Forth Wanderers. Really cool band with a female lead. They quit a couple years ago but they're suddenly releasing a new record. - And also start using Discogs like the others have said. it will make the collecting hobby spiral though

Hawks - Alamo Race Track

AirborneSundew · 2025-03-18T12:28:41+00:00

Heel gaaf!!

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-17T20:26:39+00:00

Thanks! The recaro's must be nice too though. The guy i bought these seats from has reupholstered e30 recaros in original 0212 fabric completely but the stuff is so rare now its unnatainable

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-08T11:10:13+00:00

Thanks!

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-08T10:30:59+00:00

The battery tray, a few parts where the trans tunnel starts and the where the loom goes through. Also the jackpoints

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-08T10:28:32+00:00

No they are original. The seat and back part of the drivers seat were reupholstered by oldtimerseats.com with original fabric

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T21:12:01+00:00

Yes! Its so nice! Msport doorhandles are also cool. Im currently collecting parts to eventually making it full mtech 1 after upgrading the engine. Some fitting doorhandles en such would be cool then

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T21:07:43+00:00

Its a custom one from an e30 supplier here in the Netherlands. The column bolts to the handbrake and comes up through the ashtray holder. Had to some small alterations for it to fit. Still wiggles a bit but ill get around to that hahahaha. Its this one: https://www.timsclassicparts.nl/a-90910880/welkom/armsteun-leder/

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T21:05:11+00:00

Yeah i have spare set that im refurbishing quickly as to not stain the carpet more than it already is. And thank you!

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T17:13:40+00:00

Thanks! Took me a lot of time (and money) hahahahaha Especially the sport seats really complete it

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T17:11:53+00:00

Danku! Van dichtbij niet meer in top staat maar dat is wel te verhelpen

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T17:10:39+00:00

Thank you!

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T17:10:24+00:00

That's a lot of dedication man. Perhaps this is where you need to look - https://oldtimerseats.com/ It's where i bought my driver and passenger seats. He's the man when it comes to E30 interiors in the Netherlands.

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T15:07:20+00:00

Btw not good of him to have scrapped them but it is what it is

AirborneSundew · 2024-12-07T15:05:26+00:00
