If you get it for around £1750 I'd say all good 
I had a look: To me it seemed tired. Rust on 3 arches, doors didn't open very easily.
I don't need this, I'd rather spend out £1500 more and get a much better one. It's been resprayed and not the best of jobs, though looks lovely from a distance. So it's a no go I'm afraid.
Who's to say a lower mileage original good condition 328i sport holds its value?

The price is massively optimistic, especially given that the pictures and his description don't tally with the reality, the mileage and what I suspected.
Seriously, not much more buys a really nice 328i Sport.
191k is alot of miles. Forget about the engine, I'd be concerned with knackered suspension and steering components, rust and the fact that it WILL be looking tired and have a whole host of niggles and marks.

My old Nov 1995 328 had digi climate and black head on the original engine so I don't think it's too strange. Early 328s on M reg were analogue AC with the alloy painted head though. This probably isn't gospel and I'm sure there will be some inconsistencies with the occasional BMW parts pin special editions.I'm sure you can find much fresher /better specced sports for that kind of money. I think the seller is trying a little too hard to cash in on the fact that it has an LSD fitted.
Recently sold a 1994 320 coupe - 176k miles - Main issues with it were rust on the wheel arches - Pebbledashed through the paint at that mileage, and the drivers seat bolster.
Maintained fastidiously so suspension and engine great.
Thought I did very well to get £600 for it.

te on a stick i sold a montreal blue 1998 1 owner 328i Sport with full supllying dealer history for 2k
Ok so it was auto but it was a genuine car that had every reciept from new and everything except 2 services was done at the dealer,,,,,,,,,,,, and all original paint
I think that example is about 1k too expensive
