Looking at 325i and just really want to know more about the engine and problems to look out for . Also what sort of MPG can I expect as I would be using it daily? Thanks

The Internet - It has proven to be worthless, and is nothing but a repository for perverts.

The red 325 Touring in my sig. used to consistently return 27 MPG as a daily driver. That was almost entirely on country roads, with no dual carriageway or motorway driving. (Nearest one of either of these is over 30 miles away.)

My automatic averages 28.8 mpg as a daily driver, mostly town driving outside of peak hours (minimal traffic). I always keep a note of how many litres I put in and how many miles I get out of it and have done for over twelve months, so I can safely say that my result is pretty accurate.
