1991 BMW 3 Series 325i SE review from Australia and New Zealand
"Wonderfully built and designed sports sedan"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Small radiator leak.
I have replaced many wear items as maintenance (I'm a stickler for keeping things well maintained!)
Some suspension rubber components need replacement - it's feeling a bit "squirrely" at high speed, and on windy uneven roads :-)
General comments?
Handles VERY well, watch the tail in the wet though... it can come round to bite you if you are not careful at speed!
Parts are a lot cheaper than for our previous Toyota.
