2004 BMW 3 Series 316ti Sport review from UK and Ireland
"Quality motoring"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rattle from the rear - fixed under warranty.
General comments?
Excellent build quality
Handling is superb - very stable at speed & around corners. Has next to no body roll
Engine is very economical, smooth and free revving.
Power delivery is linear and is fairly nippy for a 1.8.
Should have bought this car earlier!!
