Hi everybody,

Struggling to find a good 318is.. And a friends father might have a 325ix coming up for sale.

Before anything I'd like some honest feedback and advice on them, what to look out for beyond the usual e30 checklist.. The pros and cons and general feedback.

Talk to me!

All help appreciated :D

Topblag has a few IX's, he would be the best man to ask.

If you genuinely need awd get an ix, if not, don't bother.

They're better/cooler on paper than in reality, and good luck getting parts....
