BMW 1 Series

beamer-89 · 2016-01-15 16:24:42

Just looking for any opinions/advice on buying a BMW 1 series 116i I'm considering a 2005 SE model with about 96k miles for about 5k - can they handle mileage well? Is there anything to look out for when looking on them? I know the diesel engines had issues with the timing chain - are the petrol ones ok?
