318 or 325

[marcp1987]

I have the same problem at the moment. Drive a 318is but want a 325. Do about 280 miles a week, can a 325 do that on one tank? 100 miles commuting the other just crusing to parents/playing around? I miss my mates 327

Sex with a man or sex with a woman, what would you chose?




Man sex = 4pots

Lady sex = 6 pots.

three some with lady idetical twins V8?

A 4 pot BMW just isnt a BMW IMO

of course you are entitled to YOUR opinion, but....

one of the main reasons E30s are so well known, liked and respected are because a 4-pot E30 was the most successful Touring car of all time...

Hmmm....

also a modern E90 320d has around the same power as an E30 325 with a LOT more torque (not that a 325 is bad in that dept, either)...

The M42 engine was one of the first mass production engines to utilise coilpacks

M10 engine *saved* BMW along/with the Neue Classe

BMW F1 turbo engine was one of the most powerful engines (bhp/litre) ever...on a production derived (M10) block, too!

How many cylinders makes a BMW, then?

No - that would be sex with man identical twins.

The same block was used in the 2002.

[GrindCulture]

And wasn't the 2002 Turbo the first turbocharged production car in Europe also?

Quite possibly, but that's a whole new level of anorak I'm not willing to stoop to!!!

325 12v are a poor show, you want a 24v.. owning a 12v means your really missing something

it is aint it

its the only car i know where by the battery is bigger than the engine, its still 10bhp faster than the 1.2 8v

[DHFiS]

Whats the road tax on a 325 going up to?

I learnt to drive in one, my instructor thought it 'sounded quite nice' . Still, corner it on the doorhandles, I used to beat my mates everywhere in my 1.2 8v Clio although how I didn't have an almighty shunt I'll never know. Used to drive it back and forth down the M4 with my foot welded in the firewall at all times too, my logic being that Renault claimed a 99mph top speed, so it was doubtful it would be doing anything like that no matter what the speedo said, and therefore no right minded copper would ever nick me. Think I used up a lifetime's luck in about a year!

Sorry, you are right. Was thinking of new car tax band

lol they do sound wierd, they sound v6ish 4 cyl per valve and 3 cyl its just half a v6

it thrashed my mates 1.2 8v fiesta with a chocolate camshaft

when i do motorway trips i have to toe it a lot of the time, driving over the a66 is painfull i try to keep up with modern 2.0 turbo diesels and as soon as i get to a slight bank im knackerd... back into 4th with foot flat down

I had one of those things as a hire car, it's true what they say ''nothing goes, or handles like a hire car''

did you think they sounded like v6's

[stonesie]

Thought it sounded like a wet fart tbh

It's not a bad noise when you wind it up a bit, but you have to do that anyway to get it to move

[Alex]

they are slow, i cannot imagine how slow the 1.2 is, its suppose to only have 45bhp
