2000 E36 318ti

[nick496 268]

Hi Guys

Selling my runabout I had for a year while the E30 was getting panel work done.
-Motorsport kit
-Non-sunroof

Has a fresh wof from VTNZ, so good until 2021.

Recent oil and filter change

Writing on the transmission indicates that it was serviced fairly recently as well.

Cons:
AC doesn't work
Central locking doesn't work

Link to trademe for some more photos, but we've all seen an E36 TI: https://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=2507450480

Will take $1800 from a bimmersporter.

Any indication on fuel economy?. Thanks

Couldn't really say, as only filled her up a few times, and the vast majority of trips were around town. 

I'd guess 12l/100kms around town, but you should average out around 10l/100kms.

This will give you a better indication

I think Nick is being pessimistic.   (Managing expectations - that sort of thing.)

Miss M has a slightly newer, M43-powered E46 4-door. 8v vs 16v, but a bigger and heavier (about 60kg) car. Her car typically uses less than 10l/100km for normal running about, and will easily dip into 6l/100km on a run.

I had an M44 E36 compact - albeit manual with a 4.44 LSD (which means ~4500rpm at 100kph), and it did around 10l/100km with spirited driving, combined city/highway.

I know manual vs auto, and the lower diff ratio both make a difference, but this might give you an idea.

I'd say the car would get results similar to what others say. But I've only really driven it around town (and not that frequently).

Finally sold. To a friend of a friend.
