2002 BMW 3 Series 318i review from Australia and New Zealand
"Very smooth engine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rear bumper is a bit loose near the wheel arch. However, this is apparently common in some 3 series.
General comments?
The engine is as smooth as silk.
The cabin is very well screwed together.
Insulation is incredible - you can hardly hear any road noise.
