I needed a cheep run around for a couple of months and this came up;
318is (16v m42)
Coupe
Half Leather
Air Con
Mot till June 09
Tax Jan 09

171k = £500!

It drives great, perfectly straight engine is strong and doesn't make any dodgy noises or overheat / use any oil! It is so much smother than e30s. My girlfriend has decided it is her car..

At that price it obviously has a few issues - the air con doesn't work, but also the fan only works on speed 4 - do people think they could be related? What are the things to check?

Passenger window doesn't work either - drivers is fine. It isn't the fuse as they are on the same one - any thoughts?
