1993 BMW 3 Series 318is review from Australia and New Zealand
"A great example of German Brilliance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far has gone wrong with the car. I have only had the car for 2 weeks now, so this may not be the best indication, however, if the current situation is anything to go by, then I'm in for a great run.
General comments?
This car is not very quick at all, but it is built very well. It feels very safe to drive, stable, and handles really nicely around corners. It is a heavy car admittedly, however, this doesn't transfer into poof fuel mileage. So far, I've driven 400km, and have 15 litres left before empty. Personally I believe that is great economy.
The car itself is very basic interior wise, however, for its plainness, it is still very comfortable.
