Cale 36 Report post Posted January 27, 2007 (edited) Thinking of selling my E30 and buying a E36. Don't have that much money to spend but don't want to buy a huge (maybe unsafe) mileage. Whats the highest mileage you guys would buy an E36 at? Cheers all. Edit: or how long will they prob last? Edited January 27, 2007 by Cale Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antallica 15 Report post Posted January 27, 2007 Just a thought but wouldn't it be more to do with how it's been looked after in it's life (regular servicing etc.) rather than just how many k's it's done? As for mileage I prob wouldn't go for anything over 150,000 unless it's a stunner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30stz 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2007 if you havent got that much money, better off not buying an E36. Keep the E30, if its not cheap enough to run, get a honda / toyota because an E36 wouldnt be any cheaper. If you must - buy a facelift model 1995 onward as they were more free of the niggly problems that came up in the pre-95's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cale 36 Report post Posted January 27, 2007 Fuel consumption not an issue here. As above, it is all to do with whether the car was looked after. Niggly probs like...? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30stz 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2007 you wont really find an E36 thats been looked after well enough for under probably $7000 and thats on reasonable km'age. You always have to service a car, my mothers car is a 96 318i, its serviced every 10,000km's by BMW places but still every now and then needs parts changed which add upto $500-800 sometimes at a time. Cheaper to own an E30 in my opinion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
