zulfi 3 Report post Posted August 18, 2017 Hi Guys, Another newbie here from Auckland. Recently imported a BMW 320i 2008 E90 (M Sport) from Japan. I don't have a detailed knowledge about cars but know a few basic things. At the moment I'm loving the drive but I have read that its not a recommended model (I know I should've done my homework before but I was quite excited at that time). I'm one of those types who looks after their car and keep it clean and tidy. I haven't done any modifications as I'm not into it or racing. I'm open to advises/suggestions and keen to join the next Auckland meetup. P.S. for some reason I'm unable to upload a pic, either as an attachment or on my profile so I'm sharing this google photos link; https://goo.gl/photos/L1nz4WgwEFHrDnEy6 Thanks, Zulfi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted August 18, 2017 Sell it asap and buy a 6 cylinder 323i, 325i or 330i. I know someone who bought a low mileage jap import 320i for about 20k a couple of years ago and have spent more than 20k on repairs and service work on the engine, gearbox, and everything else and STILL the car is not perfect. Not to mention the many months it sat in the workshop rather than being driven. It is an on-going expense that will not stop. Sell it now and save yourself (and your wallet) the pain. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
