Howsit gents and Ladies.

I'm kinda new here, well been stalking posts etc since like late last year :fencelook::=):

After owning VW's for the past 11 years, i've finally grown up lol. So i'm in the market for a 2011 320D A/T MSport LCI.

What's the pros and cons? So far all i've hear and read are the pro's.
How does one check up history on BMW's?
Tell me anything I need to know please.

:ty: in advance.

For a good price under R200k, you can get a member's 320d LCi her ewith some good mods and preventative maintenance.

Thanks bud.

You can get the vin checked out on bmwvin.com.
That will tell you how the car came from the factory.
Maybe there is someone on here that will be able to check the history on the car.
So far on mine I've only changed the gearbox mounts that was gone.
Changed the boost housing seels as well, but that was preventative maintenance as I don't want a boost leak.
Also the damper pulley/vabration pulley will need to be changed either on 150k km or when it's making a noise.

Thanks guys.

So I think i'm ready then. My budget is R150k. Saw a few already, I just need to make time to go view them and take them for test drives

@AshG108, I'd prefer a stock standard one :smilebounce:
