I am teasing you Joel....Its a forum thing...If you look on the home page and check the thread statistics you will find plenty debate on the 320i
For the ball park you looking at you can pick up a 120d/320d. Or even in the 325 range. Not sure if you will find one with Mp left. But you can always extend MP at least for the first year.

FYI, you can't really mod the 2.0L in the 120i/320i (they both use the same four cylinder n/a motor)
For a 150k, if you want to mod, you're better off looking at a 120d/320d (they respond decently to an ECU remap), or you look outside the BMW stable and get a Mk5 GTI. They respond very well to tuning (a 3k ECU remap sees at least 10-25kw gain in power)

Im not a big fan of diesel cars, i stand to be corrected but they dont last as long as petrol cars do and i just like the sound of a petrol a lot more than a diesel. But thanks a lot for the advice.
I have found a beautiful silver 2008 bmw 120i e81 with 82000km on the clock, its still under motorplans and it's going for 155 000. Is it a good buy?
Some pics of the car, it has 115 kw.

I hate to point this out to you, but 4 cyl BMWs are hardly exciting... those 115kw are going to feel rather dull

:+1: wikk3d88 has a point, those 120i's are really slugish and besides there's almost nothing in turns of aftermarket mods for it.
The diesel, however, is actually quite an impressive motor. It gets even better with a dp and sw.
Just my 2.5 cents. Rather test drive the two and come back..:thumbs:
Here's an 08 with 104k on the clock going for R145 000

For my 320i at 98000 with 4 clutches being replaced under plan they quoted me at about R25k for 1 year/20,000 km and at that stage I was doing 4000km a month so I sold the car. If you want to be safe get the maintenance plan history of the car from BMW that should shed some light on the future wear and tear to be expected of the car..

Please do go and drive them, also to keep in mind the fuel consumption on the 115kw NA 4cyl is hectic if you do city driving.. I got on average of 450km on a tank max in my '09 320i and the car was painfully, almost dangerously slow in my opinion.
