Do I want an E36 325i Convertible?

[alfaspiderman2]

Simple question.

Been offered my mother in laws 1 owner, FSH, 50k mile 325ia Convertible. For 2 grand.

Feels like a no brainer for some sunshine fun with wife and kids on board.

I know it won't be quick but it sounds nice and looks kinda cool in a totally original type of way. Should really lose any money on it either.

Agree?

I would.

if its as clean as it sounds you shouldnt loose money on it.

I looked at buying one last year and bought a mid '90's Audi 80 Cabriolet for a couple of grand instead.

It has been a great car, the summer was fantastic so we really made good use of it and the kids loved it.

Do it!!!

It's mint. Dark blue metallic, tan leather, power roof.

Anything to look out for in terms of big future bills? (It's got FBMWSH).

Just general stuff really, suspension bushes and the like. With that mileage i wouldnt of thought anything would be worn out though! Engine is pretty bomb proof if looked after.

The last time I drove it, it felt a little sluggish but that could be down to mother only ever going to the shop in it. Probably just needs a good thrash
