3 SERIES 93 Report post Posted January 19, 2010 Welcome Tom, Good to hear the 318ti is going to be for your partner and not yourself As Glenn said, be sure to get a pre-purchase inspection done prior to doing the deal. Make sure its from a BMW dealer or specialist. Glenns the man, take it to him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
