[Mr Sam]

oh yeah he also said he was err on a private track () doin a shade over a ton and pulled up next to a LOW mk1 escy the dude in the escort waved then left him big time

[fezza]

Sounds pretty good mate at that price if it has some test on it,good reliable cars and like you say rwd 318i by the way

[Mr Sam]

oh yeah year of tax and tested till october

[fezza]

Hmm,might want to make sure it dont need work for the next mot Sam and id give the insurance a call first,they can be a little pricey

[surfingturnip]

Good points there! Deffo get insurance quotes before commit yourself

 

do the indicators work?

[sab6024]

I was considering buying one of them a while ago, good solid RWD car!! Deffo check out the insurance though

[evil knievel]

if your gonna get a beamer why not get an old one?

 

[mk2_escort_chick]

My neighbour used to have one of the older 3 series'.

It needed a new paintjob, but I still think they're lush!

also make sure it has an lsd because a 318i wont ... a 318IS might the only ones that deffo will are the 325i sport ones ...

 

lsd was an option throughout the range but VERY rare on things other then the SPORT models ...

 

as said tho m8 got for an E30

 

an e30 318IS is group 12 insurance with 2 yrs no claims i got insured on one for £860 fully comp a\nd it was a cracking little car ... if you cant find an IS and just go for a 318i get the touring (estate) because u will benefit from better suspension and disc brakes all round !

[countrybumpkin]

if you want a bm go to castle combe after a track day there always be one there going cheap but i may need some new panels

i cant rember what he said it was but it deffinelty has LSD as he had been hehe annoying the missus while she was trying to eat chocolate buttons on rounderbouts

 

he recconed insurance wernt too bad as its got full imobiliser ive not looked into it yet

 

the only real thing i like about it is the fact its RWD........and to be quite honest if the right volvo popped up id rather have a volvo he's given me first refusal on the BM tho
