1987 BMW 3 Series i review from North America
"A wonderful car reliable to all"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace the timing belt. Many people are not aware that every 60,000 miles it needs to be replaced. The ball joint also needed to be replaced.
General comments?
I love this car! It is my first car and has never really given me any problems than the ones listed above. It is great on gas, easy on the tires and accelerates nicely.
