Sorry guys just a couple of quick questions:-

1) Are C43's reliable (conscious that they are starting to reach "that" kind of age) and are there any known problems?

2) What are running costs like?

The context of this is that I need to buy a car to commute/motorway bash in. I have a TVR and an old Midget as well so have the irrational side of the garage stocked so to speak. As a consequence was just about to buy an automatic 330i (52 plate with 46k miles) before some b*gger at work brought one of these up and suddenly I'm feeling the urge to do something stupid. Someone talk me out of it!!
