Personally, I'd say, look at 325i/330i or 320d/330d... :thumbs:

But depends it on what you want and willing to pay - although, I'd happily spend a few grand more for a bigger engine! :inlove:

Thanks guys for all the help.....

Think i will just wait a while and pick up something better. Thinking 330i will be best for me. Would love a 330d but with all the talks that i have heard i dont want to take a chance. If i could afford a new 330d then i would be all for it. You dont know how those cars where looked after by the previous owner.

Been looking around and cannot seem to find one for around 180k.

The specs im looking for

323, 325, 330i, Sports pack, sunroof, manual.

There are a few but with high mileage. Seen one at the Toyota in Lenz but i dont trust those guys.....Hope no one knows them :fencelook:

But im not in a rush just yet so will look around.....

I would only spend more on a 335i. Saw one at bmw for 230k and had 100k on the clock but was sold......

Try scoping out BMW's potential trade in clients, pull them aside and have a chat, im sure they (BMW)dont give much on trade in so you can offer them(the person wanting to trade in at BMW) a better price compared to BMW, which will work you out cheaper in the end....just a thought, dont know much about trade - ins and stuff so just a suggestion!:rollsmile:

Don't discount the 330d. Seems to be more reliable than the 335i based on the opinions flying around ... or maybe 335i drivers complain too much

That's what the spec sheet says for the e90.
Colin, yours is a 2008 e90 323i as far as I recall.

I believe the specs are correct.
