Advantages: Great buys at the moment Disadvantages: Will be replaced in 2005
...huge price tag. A BMW 3 series probably doesn't say cheap to most people but I have just purchased the BMW 1.6 ES special edition for £16, 495 including metallic paint.
What do you get for your money?
With this special edition I have got a 1.8 litre engine with 150 BHP.
Standard features of this car include:
Air conditioning (manual)
CD Player
162 alloy wheels
Electric front widows
M3 steering wheel and gear stick (no controls)
Sports suspension
... ...to the gallon combined. BMW official figures are 50.4 combined.
What else is available?
I have just seen and driven the new 1 series that is being released by BMW on the 18th Sep 21004 and I have to say that the 1 series will prove competition for the 3 series which some may think is relatively old and not quite so stylish in design. However, the basic one series is around £16 for the base 1.6 edition and does not include half of the extras that ...

Quick review of BMW 316i
pleasure to drive!
makes you feel safe and secure when driving, being a BMW
the large dimensions are hard to get used to at first as the car is a lot wider than similar models by other car manufacturers
some minor problems known with 3-series compact models such as the airbag light comes on even if the airbag is in fully working order. best to get this checked out first anyway, in case you are involved in an accident! other than that no problems at all.
have had the car eleven years already, expect to keep the car for another five years at least! mine is an automatic which makes the car even simpler to drive, really a pleasure at all speeds and in all conditions. ...
Advantages: It looks soooo good Disadvantages: Expensive to service and get parts
...I always wanted a BMW even when i was a little girl, I'd heard my Dad saying he wanted one and so did I. After a little 'prang' involving my Citroen Saxo and a Pergeot 306 I was offered a used BMW (1997 - P reg) in Black with air conditioning, CD player, alloy wheels etc. It looked so lovely and my dream came true. The cost of the used car was the same as it would cost me to buy a brand new saxo - £5000 and that's without the added extra's. The quality ... ...you expect to see a BMW in. To service it at a reputable BMW garage is going to set you back at least £300 - but this has a plus side because a full BMW service history will add value to your car when you come to sell it. Parts are also quite expensive - as is the labour to fit them, a qualified BMW mechanic will cost you £60 per hour. And if you're thinking you'll take it to the little man who used to service your fiesta and was really cheap you'll ...

Advantages: Great looking and affordable luxury Disadvantages: No mod cons
...this car in that respect. BMW have really got it right with their bodywork.
Internally this car has no mod cons, the dashboard is pretty basic and there are none of those great gadgets everybody loves to have but the necessary equipment is there. BMW stereo system is great.
Does like to drink petrol but you get a good, nippy car for your money. Overall I am very happy with this car, I had the three years never had any problems with it at all. Very ...
