Evening everyone, as title says really. I've a 120d at the minute but due to only doing 7k a year now I fancy a petrol again. Been looking at some older 330i's with 70-80k on. I only need it for 2 years really. Is there any issues or things to look out for before buying at this age?

Cheers
Chris.

Hi mate it's a 330i SE. I like the msport but they are a bit more pricey. Full leather and a auto. I like the look of the E90 tbf. Il check out the service history see if any mention of that. Looking forward to having a petrol again you can't beat them,

Test drove one today and well I fell in love haha what a gorgeous sounding motor. Felt sick when I had to pop back in the 120d driving home. Hopefully gonna get it just waiting for some cash.

Well picked her up and she's everything I hoped she would be and more. Power delivery is smooth and refined. Nice and quiet compared to the 120d until you give it some then it makes a great sound from the straight 6. Nice and stealthy too which is the way it's staying! Love it

I'm glad I've managed to get hold of a proper 3 series while I still can I think in a few years Ito be a classic so to speak. Knackers to your 4 pots and electric hybrids where's the fun in that. Dark days ahead with the way cars are going 😞
