Selling my BMW E46 318i 2.0 litre with Steptronic transmission.
If you are in the market for an affordable continental car with a good balance of comfort, low fuel consumption, power, safety and stability - look no further!
Honest advice when purchasing an E46 of this age, you could buy the car a little cheaper than mine but be prepared to spend at least 15-20k or more UPFRONT to replace ALL worn parts or replace 1 part at a time and spend 1k every month to fix parts which will take turns to fail at this age. A safer way, get a well maintained car that has had most if not all parts replaced with quality OEM or original BMW replacements!
Summary
- Loads of parts replaced, close to 30k spent in last 2 years
-Preventive maintenance is a priority, and any parts with signs of wear have always been changed in advance
-For the price of a Myvi / Persona and cheaper than various cars such as Vios, City, Almera, Civic, Altis, etc.
-A car that you will enjoy driving, is safe & stable, comfortable and comparatively more powerful than most cars u can buy in the same price range
