Spend a bit more time picking the right car, don't settle for what you can get your hands on quickly. Even if it means waiting a few months for 'the one!'
Once you have the right car, it'll be worthwhile. Remember though, these are old cars and will need TLC from time to time.

before i bought mine,being in the trade i knew like any old car it had would have its problems,but bided my time,had a good look about and eventually ended up with my touring for £600.shes not perfect but shes fun and considering the milage pretty damn reliable.fist bmw ive ever had,still got a smile on my face even after a year.
