We bought our first BMW back in 2000 which was a 318Ci Coupe which we fell in love with the second we saw it. After having our first baby and then quickly falling pregnant with our second we decided to change the car for something a bit more practical so we bought a brand new 316i se tourer which was a lovely car and we got some sporty wheels and aluminium trim added to make it a bit better but unfortunately it wasn't the same as our coupe. We just didn't get the buzz of driving that you do with a sporty little number so again I decided we had to change, I didn't want to be practical anymore and I went back to BMW on my own and as a surprise for my husbands birthday I bought him a 325Ci Coupe back in Jan 2004. It is silver with black cloth material and I immediately fell in love with it. Now the downside to this car is that it only does about 25 miles to the gallon which isn't that bad unless you drive how the car wants to be driven (very quickly) then it would be less than 20, but thanks to the many speed cameras around now a days we get more for out money. Now BMW's I think are the best made cars around and we recently found out about their aftercare service is also excellent when we had a puncture and they promptly came to our rescue when we was away for a family wedding about 3 hours from our house and sorted the problem with no charge even though the car is out of warranty. I would therefore recommend this car and BMW as a whole completely.
