Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-

Value
Bought in November, standard car cost £3200.
Costs
Use independent dealer as main dealers very expensive for car of its age. Shouldn't loose huge amounts, but beware new 3 Series out soon !!!

On the road
Driving
Very good driving position, seat not as supportive as others on longer drives though.
Performance
Very good performer, fast acceleration, superb on motorways, 100mph at 3500 revs ! with 25+ mpg !! what more do you want?! Straight six is superb, worthwhile spending the initial extra over buying a 318 as 318 feels underpowered and strained at speed.

Living with it
Reliability
Good for car of its age, although engine did overcook when sitting in traffic jam, not expected !!!
Image
Still a classic car, lot of modified ones about, with M3 extras etc, best to keep eye on standard ones as they tend to have been looked after more.
Comfort
Rear leg room is tight, headroom is adequate for most, seats could be more supportive.

Security and Service
Security
R/C/L Alarm came as standard, not as tempting to thieves as once were, but ensure alarm is installed to keep your car !
