1998 BMW 3 Series 318is Coupe Sports Pack review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front fidney grills loose on purchase - had to be replaced. Analog clock faulty - replaced - all under warranty.
General comments?
The best value for money BMW - especially with all the (M3 type) S Pack extras. Fitted Schnitzer lowered suspension - did not make any great improvement in handling but car now looks even sleeker. Black metallic paint hard to keep clean - bird droppings need removing quickly or will damage surface. Car a magnet for vandals - has been scratched once but otherwise is a pleasure to own.
