1992 BMW 3 Series i review from UK and Ireland
"Get a 325i instead"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel gauge does not work.
Electric mirrors do not work.
Headlight electrical fault.
Seats wearing badly.
General comments?
Very Reliable, mechanically bombproof and looks the part.
Nice drive, great handling.
Sluggish off the line, but fast mid range excellent overtaking. Sounds sweet after 190.000 miles.
Do not get this - get a 325i as you get much better performance with the same fuel economy. The 2.0 is smooth and sounds good, but the economy is dismal for the size, especially if you push it. Has never given more than 30mpg - generally considerably lower.
