Rave reviews and widespread recommendations to acquire relevant today.
Perhaps we should leave here my little review about this BMW. As the owner of a bmw 3 series 318i e36 for almost 10 years, I can say with absolute certainty the following:
- I would have walked with this attitude to cars as I have, if I took some other car for the same money. The repair is easy, parts are available and on the availability and price. Flawed on the road do not feel, including next to new cars. Even the BMW with engine capacity of 1.8 liters you can get pleasure from driving in the city. Although the bmw 3 series, the engine less than 2 litres for a real BMW don't accept.


Price of bmw cars e36 today is very low. A car in good condition will cost from $700. The price here depends on the engine capacity.
