I'll give you a great tip, don't ever start it and switch it off again before it has had a chance to start warming up. Classic is moving it off the drive onto the road.... they flood badly and are a pig to clear.

Funny you should buy one of them, had a look at a 325i yesterday for sensible money...Pos my favorite shape of the 3 series..

Whats the plans for it if any??
Free Parking is a bonus, leaving my Cav in a carbon dust filled carpark is not.....

do it,so good to drive 328 is fairly quick standard coupe is by far the best.

erm m50 inlet manifold remap and full exhaust,get it to around 220-230bhp. may leave coilovers as its so dam comfortable :lol:
plus getting an s13 as the drifting toy so dont need to go mad

I was told by a bmw lover that the 328 handles better due to less power at the rear and lighter engine at the front.
Do love a good coupe, looks alot better than the other one.

best car ive driven in the dry,better than the cav :lol: wet is good to,but can make it slide very easy. have a 325 welded diff to fit up the power should sort it out nice

lol good looking cars with the right kit really nice to drive to,brakes are shocking though need urgent attention!

With a locked diff you'll lose traction on every turn, I would think that will require some care not to end up wrapped around a lamp post?
