New Car

[Zetec_Escorts]

I have just bought a cheap BMW 325i Touring to use while my XR4i is at my dads garage having some engine repairs. I know ZERO about BMWs, so are these any good?

I have read the guide in Practicel Performance Cars and they seem to by quite a good budget blaster, it certainly goes well.

Don't know anything about them, but looks ok to me!

They are a very good car. I had one for a couple of years and it never let me down! I did have to change the rad though as they seem to be a weak point. Also they are prone to have dodgey fuel pump relays so get yourself to a scrappy and pick up a spare or two and stick them in the glovebox!

drove a d reg 2.0l for a while. apart from the throttle I which stuck at 2000 rpm on tickover I was bloody impressed. Closed the doors it sounded like a tuning fork

They are bloody great , 171bhp rwd lots of torque and lots ot fun in the wet,
not really a big load lugger but a sensible four door motor

This thread has just cost me best part of a grand. It started me thinking and that is always gonna be expensive, so i went and bought a 325i tourer and in this weather its great, plus if i smash it to bits it will be a lot cheaper than the m3

You could have mine for half that!!!!

[FJK]

Oh dont say that why dont you like it or are you just finished with it ?

[Zetec_Escorts]

I only bought it to use while my XR4i is having a few engine repairs done. As soon as my XR4i is fixed it will be sold.

I also own a BMW & think they are the next best thing to old skool.
