I’m pretty much going to ignore the last few posts.

For what it's worth none of my e46's gave me any real trouble. The mega miler 330 only needed a brake caliper and a radiator. My 320ci that I owned for 4 years needed nothing other than servicing (albeit it was a fresh car when I owned it lol)

Lol, it’s literally your 330ci that has been at the back of my mind since my hunt for 1 began!! I assume yours was auto?

Yea, lovely smooth driving thing. I can take no credit for that car though it was all @richie_mck work, I just drove it into the ground lol

It was a cracking car and despite the mileage it remained silky smooth. I went to see a low mile 330ci auto with a friend recently and it was horrible to drive.

What about a jimny?

Something which will probably never break

Get a jeep, nicer for the back.

Not an actual Jeep, they're guff.

Like a Jimny?

Lexus Gs300/450H?

A member gave me a run in his GS450H a few years ago and I recall laughing out loud at how this wafty big barge moved.... I actually regret not buying it at the time and it's annoyed me since.

Must only preach on a Sunday @Steve740 @mayweather

The longest MOT fail sheet i've ever seen was an e46 320d.

Unless you get a car that has mostly new parts, your going to be replacing them and you could be surprised just by how corroded they can become underneath.

 

[Steve750]

I spent a long time last summer looking at 320ds and I’m convinced there are no good examples left

 

[Rocko]

Like a Jimny?

Certainly an idea!

 

[Blackie]

A jimny, now that’s a good shout!

 

[Ace_vaux]

Again I vote for the Jimney!! The colour is perfect, not too dear to run, nice solid reliable car.

Thread closed!
