Hi guys, I'm new here. Previously owned 2 BMWs but don't own any atm.I was thinking of buying an e36 manual. Either the 1.8, 2.8 or m3.I saw a 2.8 today but there are a few things I need some advice on.1. What to check on the car? Since it's used.2. Mileage is 208,000km. a. When will I have to rebuilt the engine - I'm worried about piston/crankshalf/crank corrossion? b. And If I rebuilt, will it last (refering to the engine only)? Cost to rebuilt?c. Or is it better to buy a new engine? Cost?d. The engine cover has been replaced too. How do I identify what engine mods he has? 3. Interiora. Its a 4 spoke steering, how much to change this to 3 spokeb. The gearknob is not original. Some cheapo one. How do I get the original part?c. Can I releather the dash and also the door? Is it possible?d. Seat railing is rusty, how do I fix this?Any sifu out there can help with this matter or knows any e36 manual for sale please let me know.Appreciate any help at all.
