Hi all,
Not long after I decided on looking at a 350z, my circumstances changed a little. Commute has doubled and is now motorway mostly.
I quite like the BMW 3 Series Coupe (E92) but also open to the saloon or even a 5 Series around this age. My budget is £7k.
Ill be putting around 15k miles on it per year, so not sure if this is diesel territory or not.
320i or 320d (even 325d 330d) are tempting but I'm not familiar with the things to look out for. I've read there's some reliability issues with one of the engines (N52?) but not sure how common that is.
If I can find one near me (<100 miles from Newport) today or tomorrow I hopefully will go and view/buy.
So, petrol or diesel? 320 or 520? Any major issues with the engines/years I've mentioned?
Thanks!
Kris
