Hi, Sorry if this is a much repeated question but im new here and havent been able to find any answers yet :(. Im looking for a 325i and have found a "possible" ...it all sounds good with right mileage, history, condition etc etc.....but as with all these things it does have one noted problem....che...

Thanks Simon13 thats a good lump of info :).... tbh i think it really does need to be a 325i......but....... i have chance of what appears to be a very nice 318is as well which is tempting me to say the least!....i would snap it up but would be annoyed if in a month or so im crying out for that bit ...

E30BeemerLad : Sounds interesting....little over my budget which is 1k max really...but if you can get me more info that would be good...you never know

OK ive found what looks like a good buy 325i...but....as with all things like this there is a catch, central locking problem and fuses blowing!....are these common problems with a relativley easy fix ?....details from seller below ..

Still searching

Ok so its seem that in the long term i really need the 6pot motor.....next thing.....say i was to buy a nice clean sensibly priced 318 (dobbie82 PM me a price and details) and then once more funds build i was to transplant a 6 pot into it...say for starters a M50 2.5 which i can get fairly cheap.......

HI, Ok thanks for the input so far. pretty much as i thought...the 318is does appeal to me for various reasons...... seem cheaper for a good one compared to a good 325i.....nice revvy 16v engine, better economy etc....but ideally i need the 325 for the grunt on track, have looked at the tourings as ...

HI Guys, My first post on here ( be gentle :)) as im usually over on the MLR site as i currently drive a Mitsu Evo2 ( money pit!), and am now also looking for a E30 bmw to use as a fun daily driver, which i can also use for commuting, longer journeys ( Evo only does 15-20mpg, even on a run!) and i a...
