Hi all,

a quick question or two regarding these.

I ran one from new many moons ago and it was a real gem.

I am looking at one at the moment at 160k ish and I am thinking more about the reliability issues.

Does anyone have any experience of these at this kind of mileage. The one I have seen has a solid body and no rust, but I was just wanting to check if there were any known weaknesses such as head gasket etc.

Cheers for the responses.

Edit, forgot to say it's an E36 model P reg

I think at 160K it's anyone's guess, really - it all depends on the previous owner(s), servicing and on pure luck at that kind of mileage.

If it is less than £500, give it a go.
