car111

I am looking at getting a BMW 1.8 3 series. The model i am looking at has 70-80k on it and the prices seem to vary between 2.5 and 4k.

Has anyone any experience of owning one?
what are they like reliability wise and for parts?

316
The 316 was introduced in 1999 and has the smallest engine available in the E46, the 1.9 L BMW M43 producing 105 hp (78 kW) and 165 N·m (122 ft·lbf).[18] Like all 4-cylinder models, it was not released into the United States market.[11] In 2001, the 316 was given a smaller, yet more powerful, 1.8 L BMW N42 engine producing 116 hp (87 kW) and 175 N·m (129 ft·lbf).[19]
