Hi guys.

I've never owned a BMW but am interested in getting an E36 coupe.
After something with a bit of power so ideally after a 328, maybe a 323.

Is there anything I should be weary about or anything I should be looking for when buying one?

Also just wondering what kind of mpg you guys are getting from your cars?

Any advice at all would be much appreciated

Cheers

Thats excellent!!
Thanks alot

I've heard people mention the Vanos problem before, does this apply only to the M3's or the smaller engines aswell?

The Vanos is only found on the 6 cylinders, it's usually pretty good on the 6 cylinder non M engines(M3)
