Um.... my e39 might now be for sale.
Hi All just purchased a 325ti as “something fun” to get around in not paid a lot of money for it but hope that it passes it’s mot in May & so I can get to work bringing it back to something respectable… first impressions are it goes like stink… but I got 40mpg on the trip computer at the 70mile ride home (god know how accurate that is??).. was happy with that.. tell me what you think… as I said not paid a lot but generally done ok on cars I’ve bought off ebay in the past & for the money I hope I have got a pocket rocket..

Have you checked for rust? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/bmw-325ti-compact-/23222...
The rust suggests to me that it's been binned. My early model has none at all and a friend's 2003 with overspray everywhere has got some blebs forming. Otherwise for £530 I don't think you can go wrong. How much MOT does it have? Looks like it has xenons too, which is a rare option for these cars.

The MOT is till the end of May & yeah it does have self levelling xenons which I was pleased with... ive seen a lot of E46's with rot on the wings.. I thought it was common?? the other side has started bubbling too ... but other than the gear knob been worn all the electrics work and no rips in the seats... even the rear wiper works... for now ha ha.... its done 96k Edited by JakeT on Wednesday 15th February 14:58

Shame the 318ti is so crap. Uses the same amount of fuel as the '25, more oil and has more of a propensity to break! I would love an Oxford green 325ti with beige leather though. One was built, of that I know.

Ripe for a 330 conversion I say. However it becomes a tad too expensive when the base car is £4500!!! The most expensive compact on sale?
Yes, looks expensive to me!
As does the 142K miles pre-facelift Silver Sport that a dealer has on A/T for £2,750!!
Good luck with that - mind you in a way I hope it works out, seeing as I have a 96K miles 325ti Sport in Imola Red!
Mind you I'm still not sure I would sell mine - they are just such a great car!

That is a mad price. I paid £350 more for a car with less than half the miles. There is a facelift sport for sale for what looks like a good price. It was for sale in Devon when I was looking to buy though. Can't remember the price.
That bronze one is nice, but has been passed around a bit now - and is an auto!

That's bloody lovely. What a superb thing for under 3000 quid. A bit of Waxoyl and regular maintenance and it'll run forever. iSore said:

Probably unique in that colour, but unless you really want that colour it's way too dear for an auto with that mileage IMHO! I bought my manual Imola Red Sport in November 2014 just short of 80K miles for under 2,000 quid!
