Well previous cars that I have driven were all Jap cars with max 2000cc, so I guess it doesn't really compare That looks like a very tidy car at a reasonable price. I like the Imola Red, haven't seen too many E46 in that colour.

I've had my 328 coupe for about 8 months now, all I can say is that it is the best car I've driven so far. Plenty of power, handles beatufully and looks great. Yes it does use more gas than any other car that I owned, but its a small price to pay for the satisfaction you get while driving Get one with leather seats - makes it so much more comfortable and nicer inside.

In the last couple of weeks I've noticed something strange - and it doesn't happen every time - when I start the engine, after about 10 sec the yellow oil light comes up on the dash, stays on for about 5 sec and then goes away. It doesn't come up again while driving. My understanding is that the computer thinks oil level is low - I've checked the oil level, looks ok (car had an oil & filter change 3-4 months ago). There is no oil leak (as far as I can see). Could this mean that the oil level sensor is faulty? This happens maybe one in ten times after starting the engine.

Welcome, that is a very nice looking coupe.

Haha yes I did, thats what prompted me to look for more on youtube Also remember that Skoda crash, watched it on tv when it happened some 4-5 years ago. If it wasn't for that pole God knows where they would have ended up.

Lucky escape for Skoda at 2m 35s

Thanks a lot

That looks cool, I like the iPod-like display.

Very cool, good way to kill time at work

I did think about building an in-car PC few months ago, there are a few websites around that discuss power supply, wiring, etc, but I gave up on the idea simply because I don't really need one at the moment But it is an interesting project, so I will probably end up building one at some stage.

Right, so it happened again. What also happens is that gas tank won't open, stays locked as well. Which was a real pain because tank was on empty, luckily it sorted itself after trying to lock / unlock a few times. So I guess I'm going to have it checked out. Aside from being a real pain, I do find this to be poor design from safety point of view - passengers could find themselves trapped in the car because stupid door can't be opened in any way.

Good luck with the rebuild. What happened there? Front looks like it was burned?

Its bad, but I've got too much stress at the moment to quit

Didn't look jammed, its been working fine for two days now, so we'll see if it happens again.

Nice one

And now 3 hours later its working fine again...

Ok so I've got a weird one. Pushed button on the key to unlock the doors, alarm got disabled, lights turned on inside but the doors stayed locked. So I unlocked the driver's door with a key, no problem. Got in the car, pushed central lock button (next to hazard lights button), driver side door locked (passenger door still locked). Pushed the button again, both doors won't unlock. Pulled the handle on the drivers door, door unlocks. Pulled the handle on passenger door, nothing, stays locked. The door doesn't look jammed, tried pushing it in a bit from outside as well, nothing. So the end result is that I can't open the passenger side door at all, which is gona cause me some pain. Any ideas? Hopefully not another thing thats gonna set me back around $500 to fix. P.S. No warning lights of any sort are coming up on the dash.

Now that sounds like a lot of fun

Do the average fuel consumption and average speed figures get reset if the battery is disconnected?

Nice!

Went to see it with some of my workmates, it was ok. Have some pics as well which I could post, unless I'm gonna get a ban

Have a look at E46 318 prices on Trade Me, that should give you a good indication as to what your asking price should be. Good luck with the sale.

Well there was a link as well - http://www.trademe.co.nz/Jewellery-watches...n-168274610.htm but it now says removed by administrator, so it could have been real.

Don't know if this is for real, got it in an email today, but sure is funny...
