[QUOTE="B33mEr, post: 335818, member: 13609"] BMW is a very manja car be prepared to spend time and money on just maintaining the ride but the pay-offs are well worth it IMHO. If you want a worry free car then a japan make is to go for. If you want style, build quality, strong chassis with driving dynamics to match and comfort then you wouldn't go wrong with a BMW :D Things to look out for with an E46: Power window regulator (very common problem with E46) Cooling systems (rubber hoses and plastic parts tend to go brittle over time) radiator,gearbox oil cooler and etc Bushings (there's plenty in a BMW) Front control arms (the ball joints) Subframes - check for crack and worn out diffs bushings on the rear Or the easy way is to take it out to your workshop or a reputable BMW workshop and have them to check everything 1st before buying ... Don't play play cos might end up with a time bomb for a car if you're not careful... [/QUOTE]
