BMW e30 318is 1990 UPDATE 26-08: New wheels

[Malaise]

Hi everyone,

I'm already active on another english e30 forum ( www.m42club.com/forums ) so I'll just copy paste my thread

-->

I'm Nicolas (Malaise) from Belgium-Europe, and a real BMW fanatic.

My first car was a BMW e30 316i wich I drove for more then 2 years and 30.000km.

When I saw a BMW e30 318is for sale with only 110.000km on the clock I knew this was my only opportunity to buy a perfect e30 318is...

I sold my M40 (316i) and the M42 (318is) story would begin...

The 318is is mine from the 4th of april 2007 and I drove already more then 10.000 sporty-km. The difference between the 2 cars is immense.

So the car...

Specs:

1800cc 16V
HP: 136
Weight: 1132 kg
0-100km/h: 9.4sec
Color: Sterlingsilver metallic

Options:
Power steering
15" BBS Wheels
Electric mirrors left & right
Sportinterior
Foglights
Sunroof

Since I bought the car, the ///M emblems are removed and the white-direction lights are been changed by orange ones...
