1994 BMW 3 Series Coupe review from UK and Ireland

Water was getting into the electrics through a crack in the seal at the bottom of the windscreen. - A bit of silicone sealant and clearing the drainage channels fixed it.

Great car, it can still cut it against modern machinery (don't believe all this turbo diesel torque malarkey). Effortless performance and lasts like Stone Henge. It's a comfortable cruiser and a motorway mauler. Oh how we laugh at the Backward Baseball Cap Brigade! You won't meet much else day to day that will challenge you (well you might, but it'll be a short lesson for them).

Be warned it'll eat soft sport tires and is very partial to a drop of unleaded if you decide to go head butting the horizon.

The exhaust note and sound of the straight six will send a shiver down your spine in tunnels and multi-storey car parks. Chassis is still fresh and the driving experience is solid. I drove an IS200 sport recently and couldn't wait to get back behind the blue and white propeller. It has been called a poor mans M3 and it gives you a taste for less than half the price, it's the only way to fly!
