  1. Evening guys I put a post on not so long ago asking about 2L 16v petrol and was told that they are not very popular, my question is, is the 2L 16v diesel any better as im looking at 320d. Thanks Rob

  7. Must be someone here who answer this post Thanks Rob
  8. Evening guys Had a look at the above titled car on friday, body work is fine, it has a svs history up until 2005 but the seller has just had it serviced, as i was short on time i never got the chance to look at the engine, i am going to send him an email but what questions should i be asking, also does the car have a chain or timing belt, Thanks Rob Ps It has 88k on clock, 5 owners, it also has full mot
  9. Thanks Dabsy, i did slightly miss it tho, in another reply by Gav he says 4 cyl petrol are thirsty, i missed the petrol bit and took it as all 4 cyl were bad, so a 320d 4cyl 8v or 16v is a good enough vehicle. Thanks Rob
  10. Dabsy, i cant find anywhere this vehicle that gav has mentioned, every 320d is only 4 cyl 16v, the only straight 6 are 330, am i missing something
  11. Gav, i cant find a decent 320cd in my price bracket, not a 2dr anyway, most are 4dr and are 136bhp 206lbs ft or am i looking at the wrong size engine and wrong year, also the 4dr are 4cylinder 16v
  12. Cheers guys, if i can elaborate my requirements, 2dr coupe, decent fuel econ as i only travel 10 miles to work, im not a speed merchant so power is not a priority, but nice to have, it has to be a 3 series, also is it better to go for manuel or auto. Thanks Rob
  13. Sorry for posting another advert, this is the last, http://www2.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201150435566381/sort/priceasc/usedcars/engine-size-cars/1-7l_to_1-9l/price-to/4000/body-type/coupe/price-from/1000/model/3_series/make/bmw/page/3/radius/60/postcode/wa130es?logcode=p If i may ask your advice jack, what BM should i go for, 3-4k spend, Thanks Rob
  14. I have also been looking at this 1, http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3563234.htm, another issue i have is high mileage, is 120k + problematic. Thanks Rob
