Wanna know about E36 318

[c-square]

There you go, we have Flash speaking from experience after doing some research, and gotten the 325 instead. k:
Black, if torque and bhp is what you are looking for in owning a Bimmer, then forget about the 318 as it seriously lack those. If you have limited budget, then probably it is worth exploring getting a slightly older 325. Anyway, these are just our 2 cents worth. Take time in evaluating what exactly you are after and decide for yourself. Best of luck, bro

looking into the market these days, it's much more affordable getting a 325 or 328, but after serious consideration ,you may opt to either a high millage car or a car that would had been into 3 to 4 hands already. Knowing that it's already been into 3 to 4 hands before , you may end up breaking up ya wallet if ya are not carefull into it.
NOTE : mint condition 6 potters are hard to find as these previous owner may have trashed the car kow kow !!


As for 318 you still maybe able to opt a lower millage car and also look into a conservative way to save further towards ya maintainance , road tax and fuel.....

ONE ADVISE :- it's better to HUNT and view as many cars as possible before signing up the HP.
And also get a reliable friend or a mechanic to get it checked ......

woi who says a 4 potter can't FLY !!

black,

328 M52 engine easily burst when u come to modified... haha

Go for 325, as u can upgrade e36 M3 S50 parts such as M3
Camshaft ???? kakakakakkaa
MPower straight away increase bang.... hahaha

but this is just my humble opinion... hehe

Nak kena racun sikit baru boleh kan ?? hahaha

 

[black]

road tax & insurans berapa?

 

[fabianyee]

roadtax for 1.8 - 300+
roadtax for 2.5 - 800+
roadtax for 2.8 - 1500+

insurance depends on amount insured and NCD...

Well, obviously at the end of the day, it depends on what you can afford. If you can only afford the 318i, so be it. But if you can afford the 325i/328i, they are of course the better choice.

As for fuel consumption, from personal experience with a 1.6L Wira and 2.5L BMW... lebih kurang sama. On the average, with mix city / highway driving, for my BMW, I am doing 10.5L/100km, which is about RM0.15 per km (using normal Shell). On my Wira, it is about RM0.13. Well, what is that RM0.02 extra for the sheer driving pleasure?

Regarding your English, jangan wori brother... kita pun sama sama. Biasa cakap Manglish.
