1989 BMW 3 Series 320i SE review from UK and Ireland
"Good solid fast car, full of character"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Chassis bushes needed replacing for the M.O.T this cost around £180, when it was done the car drove better.
Now it needs a new front half of the exhaust for this years M.O.T which is costing £120.
General comments?
This car is quite fast compared to my previous car, but it can be a bit of a handful in the wet or ice.
Its engine is fantastic and sounds very well encouraging you to stay in lower gears.
It is suffering from rust now and I think this will be its last year with me, but then it is 15 years old.
