1999 BMW 3 Series 318i SE review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nearside front door lock has failed twice in first 4,000 miles.
Annoying rattle in dash about to be fixed.
Nothing else.
General comments?
True luxury. Outstanding economy 37 mpg average and never less than 30 mpg even hacking it. Add very low depreciation and you have good value.
More power wouldn't go amiss.
Very happy, but, knowing what I know now I would pay a bit more for the 323.
