hi there barney :) ,ive not long brought a 328i coupe for £405 ,its a sound motor ,mines done 144000 miles no service history but it has 12months mot and pleanty if power ,normally a good service and injector cleaner will help with the bhp they had 190bhp when they left the factory back in the 90s ,but an uprated air filter and exhurst will give it a bit extra power and it will sound like a beast ;)
