I bought an m3 in 2008. fucking thing died on my way home from the place I bought it. the main things were: vanos leaking oil, as well as the whole engine, air filter had probably never been changed, holes in the exhaust system, the carbon fiber air intake was broken and leaked, the car had also been crashed at some point. I payed about 5-6000 pounds roughly calculated. sold it for about 2000 6 months later. drove about 900 kms one way to buy that car, and I was in the middle of a cancer treatment. too bad the guy who sold it totally fucked me. so don't feel too bad about yours! I drive an impreza today and am fully recovered from both the m3 and the cancer.
Fucking awesome turn out props to you homie
thank you!
Really sorry to see that it went so poorly for you man! I think you just happened to get a terrible "base" car. No matter what, if you are buying a 13+ year old car it's going to need a few things changed. My total cost for my 2003 BMW 325i? Less than $5,000 and it runs stellar (bought for $2,500; $2,500 in parts). Furthermore, in essence it is mechanically brand new. In the end it is a great value, but ONLY if you can work on it yourself.
Pro tip, if you want an affordable M5, get an impreza.
I'm happy that you lost
(your cancer and shitty bmw. enjoy your subaru, m8.)
rust? weight reduction!
MasterofPlay7 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rust is heavier then metal
@@paddykelly3095 than* iron* because rust is oxidized iron and its not solid iron but an alloy, thats why it doesnt rust instantly
It's a bmw, so it falls apart as it age. So yes.... more weight reductions :)
pray for a snowy winter,I want a faster car in the spring
This is a 20 year old normally used car.
Yes the previous MOT was performed by Stevie Wonder.
But its not bad for its age.
If you can't handle corrosion, worn out suspension components and stuff battered then you are buying the wrong era car for the wrong money.
I'm sure there are some quite nice ones about for £25,000.
Looooooool @ Stevie Wonder
😅😂🤣😭
Stevie Wonder doing MOT, and I thought Mr. Krabs doing one was insane
Even nicer ones for 35K !😃
@jermaineotoole3668 £35k would get you a really nice low mileage car. But trying to find a good car in a rare colour is like finding hen's teeth in rocking horse poo.
For a car of that age and mileage it's quite good I believe!
you prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know a way to log back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot my account password. I would love any tips you can offer me!

Why did you not just pay this guy to check out the car like you did now before buying it?
Had the same idea.
+boy638 I think he said in the video that the car had "passed" a similar inspection before in "December." So either it was not a good mechanic checking it out or something fishy was happening.
Exactly :/
Then we wouldn't have a video...
Owen Rayner Well we would have a video of him driving and enjoying it if it was not for the condition of the car lol
thats only around 10k (including repairs) for a fully functioning e36 m3 without rust, thats not bad at all
Remember this video was 5yrs ago. Prices for them have risen
@@sv_cheats1970 significantly
For a euro-spec too. In Canada we'd pay at least 20k for a fully sorted, underpowered North American spec E36 M3...Euro-spec would probably go for 45-50k rust free.

Rust? More like weight reduction, bro.
haha
natural weight reduction
Well technically u add weight, but ya,, when its gone, weight reduction bro
Tastes good as well

Greetings from Germany!
please help me practice my German on video call

He speaks fluent German.
a BMW with 5 previous owners? that's the definition of lemon right there!
Why?
BMWs are usually abused by their owners, especially those who don't intend to keep them for too long.
Ask anyone that has bought used BMWs before.
Well, I always thought that a M3 was a special kind of car worth keeping, but maybe that's just me.
I've had plenty of cars as well, and the ones I really enjoy I tend to keep them. I now have for "investment purposes" (that's what I say to my wife anyways) a 12yo Lexus, a 20yo Nissan, a +30yo Toyota and a Porsche of the same era, and a 45yo MG. I have had most of them for over 10 years. The last one I got was the Porsche a few years ago and it had only one owner and it was in mint condition. No BMWs though. =D I already had my share of lemons. But I would love to have a BMW 850, a Z3 Mcoupe and a Z8. Maybe one day, who knows?
A Sportcross. Love it. Still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.
Yeah, I share your pains. Taxes, insurances and out of the ordinary maintenance are a pain in the ass.
But changing cars regularly still hurts too. If you buy used you get the good side of devaluation, but if you repair and do proper maintenance on a car for a while you will almost surely lose money if you sell it (there are exceptions, obviously). And then when you buy another you just don't know if it's a good buy or not until a few months later.
Well it's 20 years old. I don't know anyone who keeps their vehicles for 20 years.
Alex really doesn't know how to buy secondhand cars
+FootGlove wouldnt you get the inspection done before buying the car?
+Gxd Culture you should really know that you can buy a BMW E36 M3 better condition for £6000, he picked a car without a handbrake and this can indicate more problems. If you pick secondhand cars, make sure you check for any major problems. If there is any, walk away. You need to have basic knowledge of secondhand car problems factoring in labour costs if you need any repairs :D
+FootGlove can u explain me what is the most important to check on buying 2nd hand cars..i really appreciate if you tell me one or 2 stuff thank you.
+Khairul Izwan Rust and engine is healty.. everyting else is cheap to fix
+Khairul Izwan just make sure nothing is wrong with the engine, walk away from ANY car with an engine management light. If you're oil is going down or a lot of white smoke is coming out of the exhaust, most likely the head gasket is gone and labour for a head gasket replacement is around £200-400. If you are unsure, ask a garage person and he'll let you know the labour costs of what repairs needs doing
That's hardly a lemon mate, could've been a lot worse...
+ChrissV Thats what im saying. Here in the Us people would die for a m3 in that condition especially the REAL euro m3. Europes 328 is america's m3
+0hjaa
Because it's sour, as it would feel if you bought a car that turned out to be a hunk of junk.
+ChrissV Reminds me of Hammond's E36 in the show, which was way worse :D
+ChrissV Well, could it really? It basically had everything wrong with it, it had hidden rust, changed parts, and he payed 2-3k more for it than he really should have. I would say that is about as bad as it gets. Well, if it would have exploded, that may have been worse. But still, not the best of deals. But on the other side, more videos of him/them fixing it for us! Win win
Well, true. It could have also been a 328
My mechanic, after seeing my first car floor, refused to lift it on those big lifts. He was scared it's gonna break in half or something
2:27 That "seatbelt hack" is brilliant... The words were chosen so well XD
indicators working? - not a real bmw ^^
+Carl_Laberfeld nah- you just give bmw drivers too much credit ;)
+Carl_Laberfeld Of course they are working, no one ever use them.
If the indicator stalk had no wear on it at all and looks like it came straight from factory on a 130k mile car then it's a real BMW..
+Carl_Laberfeld Nah you just gotta unplug them.
Oh the memories...when turn signals were the vain of my existences. Damn BMW must have engineered the worst lightbulb holder mechanisms ever!
You consider that a Lemon? Michigan standards say that the car is near-mint :P
Agreed lol
haha yeah!

+Robert Deford in my standards this is almost perfect with minor details
+Robert Deford 2/3rds of these issues are seen on my mercedes and I still drive it because Michigan.
You bought a car without even looking underneath it? WTF?!
School boy error!
Who does that
You know the saying “Fools rush in” lol
I bought one without checking anything and its been good 2 me
Kind of late, but wish u knew how people buy cars in uk... Both times my parents were selling their cars, the buyer checked out the outside of the car in 2 mins, inside for 2 mins, asked for short test drive around car park and said he is buying it, everytime my parents buy a car, they spend like 30-50 mins checking every single thing, the sellers look at them like they looking at weirdos
Where are the ultra reflective shades and Bluetooth headset?
I've had two M3 saloons, one 3.2 evo and one 3.0 in daytona violet great cars. Worth hanging on to prices are on the up 👍 nice video and good technician. Cheers ML
3500 pounds for fixing all that? Not too bad if you ask me.
I need to start charging myself more. I'm quite cheep you know. Rarely ever see a shop other than to have tires fitted or need an occasional new part that is not in my collection.

Dudes, this video came up in my recommendations, and it says right below it "5 years ago". It is as if it was yesterday, good vibes.
No you didn't screw up... You bought a Beemer that needs you. Give it what it needs. If that's not for you, well, a Kia comes with a good warranty doesn't it...
Well fvcking said!!
Ok now I feel slightly better about my e36. I'm 7k into mine and it's getting a little depressing.
@@herbienbrian2 eh; sums it up. If your going buy any type of older "classic"; its going be a money pit; your doing pretty good if its worth half of what you invested into it.
More of pure passion of bringing a classic back to life.
@@Aerogrow I made it go pretty sideways tonight with some water coming onto the BLVD and I suddenly remember why I spent so much lol.

He used his blinkers in a bmw. You are truly a car god alex.
+kriss634 Ethan actually did that in the edit to stop people getting butthurt. I've learnt never to use them because I'm a better person than everyone.
+Alex Kersten truth is that as BMW drivers we always indicate without fail! It's just that our indicators produce a light that poor people can't see!
+Alex Kersten LOL why does this not have more upvotes?!
+WillThePlank wow we are impressed. your dad is rich. now we will see how you do
+phil tripe looks like my good old British sarcasm is wasted here ;)
You have to realize that this was a performance car, it wasn't driven softly and it had good and bad owners. Some people have no clue what so ever i've realized that over the years of buying used cars and bikes but the best thing is to invest a bit more money for a car that was well looked after.
You will rarely find a guy selling his vehicle that he invested a lot of money into it, especially for a good price as these things are expensive to maintain..
But nothing of this car is serious, everything can be fixed, it would be alarming if the engine or transmission were worn shit...
What's more 6900 pounds doesn't sound much for an M3...
Sometimes investing in a better condition higher priced, lower mileage one is a good idea.
+glazuna update: seeing the end of the video it really came costly to you but that's mainly because you let professionals took the job. If you would do it yourself with aftermarket parts, it could be up to 3x cheaper.
+glazuna Yeah but if they have the money why not? But then again since they had the money to fix it up why would they be bitching about it?
+glazuna So that's almost $10,000 usd for an M3 with 150,000 miles. That is pretty absurd by any logical persons standards. ''Well the outside looks good.'' Any young guy who buys a high mile BMW suffers from a classic case of ''I like fast cars but know nothing about them and will live with my mom until I'm 28 years old.''
id rather buy a new honda or nissan than this stinky old m3. Kids think they cool with their old m3s, it will backfire on you, there is reason why this cars costs so much new, they are not meant to be driven by stupid kids
+Latin Lover A lot of kids that buy Hondas and Nissans think they are cool too, a pretty moot point.

And the problem is?
yeah not a proper m3 driver move right there. He doesn't use the stuff that he teaches his students in the lectures of how to become a proper BMW driver! Very disappointing... Not to mention he didn't bring his Bluetooth headset, his reflective sunglasses and his naturally colored tie!
So much for being a BMW driving instructor. He failed to follow his very own teaching!.BMW driver are not supposed use their indicator Alex.
Thank you for naming the car after me. I feel amazing that somewhere in the UK a E36 M3 is named after me in my favorite color.

Not really a lemon at all... For a 20 year old, 5 owner performance car it's pretty good. The rust is really the worst part... All of the other things are common E36 wear and tear that's been neglected by previous owners. I totally agree you over paid but it's it pretty good shape overall.

*hi
+Alex Kersten your german was good though!
Hahah
+BB-8 English? English is language, not country
My question is this. Why didnt you get this test done on the car before you bought it. In canada where I live the owners that are selling their cars on craigslist or wherever are completely fine with you meeting up at a shop and getting a full inspection done (at the buyers expense)... Seems like you kinda screwed yourself over, and you could have avoided spending over 10k pounds on a +16 year old car.
+Dobson Ironmonger That's exactly what I was wondering. Get the inspection done before you buy. Nice video, though. Well done.
+Gregory Wills yeah it was a great video, but it seems like a guy with this amount of knowledge on cars should be able to know that he should get it inspected before he buys
+Dobson Ironmonger
He said the car passed tests on December with minimal issues.
+ODETHIOUS true good point i forgot about that lol
+Dobson Ironmonger
ey, no problem.
"I know the rears aren't working" he said. too bad it's a two door. :D
10:40 It's feckin' cold but look at my guns.
11:44 Just in case you missed my guns.
I cant cope with Schmee popping up like that, not going to sleep now....
Lucky you bought it three years ago :D an m3 under 10k in this shape is pretty rare right now
That mechanic is a legend! Such a professional and nice chap...
That was really insightful, great video!
If you own a 10 year old+ BMW, it leaks oil. Just one of those facts of life. Generally, unless you're capable of doing all the work, it's not worth fixing. Starts with valve cover, then oil pan gasket, oil filter housing, and finally, timing cover. Unless you ave the time, tools and expertise to replace the timing cover gasket, don't fix any of the others unless it's major.
Die deutsche Aussprache war überraschend gut!!
that mechanic looks like a really cool and nice person! thanks for the vid mate
I feel a lot better about my 2002 BMW all of a sudden. I have a few oil leaks which seems to be normal for BMW's but I don't have any rust whatsoever. the driver side door doesn't lock or unlock with the remote, and the computer doesn't work
That's actually some good german at the end xD
Pretty good video to show anyone how to inspect a used car, not just for BMW.
Loving the old school Star Wars style credit roll at the end lol
A car that old is going to have some rust somewhere - no biggie!
... But, you summed it up pretty well - it's a piece of Scheitzer!
how did you not take the hint when the license plate says "M3 OAF"
4 years later after me watching this when it first came out with no driving licences being 16.
I now own a E36 328i 🤣
AYYYYYYY and its got rust but. Fixing it dw :)
Well i must say, that i love your videos! I think car throttle is one of the most funny car channels in youtube! But i got a question to Alex. And i have to ask him in german because i think that is really amazing. British english and perfectly german. Alex i love you :D ... so ... Wie läuft es zurzeit mit deinem M3 ? Ist er wieder fit oder dauern die Reparaturen noch?
Im stunned with how common rust is in old cars up in north. In southern Europe the most common thing in old cars is clear coat peel from the sun. I see it every day, i see it in my car. But rarely rust. Except if you live near sea side.
Sees sway bar is unattached, proceeds to test the 0 to 60. Smart
ProCityGaming oh, you know best do you? marvelous.
We can only assume that that wouldn't be the logical thing to do
ProCityGaming Sway bar does nothing to affect 0-100 times. All it does is add stiffness to the front suspension, and make it more firm. any car can go in a straight line without a sway bar..
Posts negativity about sway bar, knows nothing about sway bars. Smart.
@@fueledgti One of the mounts is broken, so the sway bar is completly useless to start with that. A sway bar makes the suspension travel a lot more smoothly with no sudden trasitions of weight, on acceleration a sway bar can help maintain suspention geometry at its tuned levels and if that does not happen tyre wear is the tip of the iceberg. To be more specific, go and watch how the new m3's launch, they tend to sway in one side more than the other and the antiroll-bars help to first eliminate it and second to control it, if you dont have that control, one wheel will tend to have less grip than the other because the weight bounches verticaly and horizontaly and dramaticly change the load that each spring has, so the best way to emagine it is as your suspension works like a worn out rubber bushing, it goes all over the place. Grip is lost so fun and feeling of the car are gone out the window so yeah, good stuff xD.

Yep, that's a 15 to 20 yr old e36. You know good and we'll someone switched out the instrument cluster with a lower mileage one. Probably 200,000 miles plus in reality.
Bunches of oil leaks, water intrusion and those holes under the carpet. Looks quite familiar. I'm surprised the plastic door panels weren't falling off. At least it is a pure euro-stick. Those French GM automatic transmissions are gonna die at 130 to 150k.
Fun car for someone that does most of their own work on weekends. Too expensive to maintain at your certified BMW shop. It'll always need something, but they are fun to drive.
I'm buying an E46 M3 soon and this is giving me anxiety lol.

"Is it because of this?"
"Yeah"

A very nit picky inspection. This is an older vehicle. They don't stay perfect forever regardless if you want them to or not. Even if he had paid 4x the price for a "perfect" example there would have been something on the list that needed to be repaired. Cars are complex machines. They are hard enough to make perfect out of the factory. Add a few years of age to a vehicle and that "perfect" target becomes more and more expensive to maintain. While there were a few things that needed attention on the list it would have been very easy to fix many of the things on that list without breaking the bank.
Don’t know if I’m just being stoned but it made me laugh when he said money and in the back ground there was a sign that said muni
On the strength of this video, I used Munich Legends for a pre-purchase inspection of my 2011 BMW M3. They inspected it thoroughly, produced a report, and I got the dealer I was buying the car from to sort out the couple of issues (non-cosmetic) found which was 1 tyre to be replaced and rear brake discs and pads to be replaced. Since I bought the car, it's been sweet as a nut! Clearly they did a good job on the pre-purchase inspection. Happy days! :)
The way you pronounce German is pretty spot on! I challenge you to do a whole video in German.
Why didn't you get it inspected before?
+Tech Assistant or at least look at the basics yourself?
Because he's a true idiot when it comes to cars....
kdr0003 lol
+JohnDark93 Pre-purchase inspections are usually under $100, which is nearly nothing compared to the issues they can turn up.. Most shops charge a fairly low rate for them because they're hoping you'll have them perform the repairs they deem necessary. Short of the VANOS test, anyone with 2 eyes and a lift could have inspected that car and told him not to buy it.
+Maxwelhse and after a lot of inspections you still dont have a car because its an old car. The most expensive repair is the vanos and als the mechanic explained almost Every BMW has problems with it and you can drive it without problems. he could also just buy An m3 at this garage and be sure there are no problems, but looking at the website and prices i'm guessing that you cant buy a similar car there for the same ammount.
6:36 that flashlight almost looks like Nvidia graphics card😂
"After James is done prodding Colins rear end"
Best line ever!
Why didn't you inspect it first before making it an official buy?
Many garages don’t allow it
3500 is pretty cheap, with all that ust n leaks i would've guesssed more.. pretty sure they didn't include head gasket yet
I think at that point they were being kind.
I know I'm late to the party, but I wanted to point out that he's talking about British Pounds Sterling, not Dollars. 3500£ is a lot for a car he paid 6900£ for...
that's 3500 every six moths on that shitter
everytime he said vanoss i just imagined a golden owl operating the variable timing system... Vanoss gaming xD
That M1 in the intro is just beautiful.
Scary that passed the MOT! The Irish NCT would have failed it on the lights alone.
Lol you don't think all that rust is an issue? That's a powerful engine to have on a rusty chassis. I'd be worried about the arse falling out of it haha
Lol I don't give a shit what the government says so that's not why is be worried. The car might not fall apart driving down the road but in an accident it might disintegrate. That's what would worry me and being a Mom, I have to think of little ones in the car with me ;)
Blake Belladonna It's true that the MOT will pass if the car is safe for other road users and the environment, but Alex said it passed with no advisories which most of the stuff listed should have been.
@Blake Belladonna Those RWBY Profiles haunt me.
It wouldn’t have passed an MOT ... it’s clearly a dodgy one ... you know ... send a large amount of money by post (don’t forget your reg plate) and in return you get a clear MOT
Who else thought it was going to be another lemon song?
Its ok they are lightening holes.... less wind resistance, less weight, less craps given when someone scratches it... tires still smoke the same tho
honestly most of those issues are pretty damn common on older performance cars,. not to mention you cant expect everyone to take perfect care of it. this is why you always make the seller give you an up to date inspection. shop smart
Yep, couldnt agree more, the steering wheel is on the right side, it's FUCKED
you screwed up by buying a car without doing the checking you're doing now to look "professional".
james pond yes, I too enjoy taking my 2 post lift with me to the drives of sellers houses just so I can take a look under the car
Bring more of those and maybe some beers, and what do you get?
A lemon party.
love watching your videos. It kind of inspires me to want to become a UA-camr. During my sophomore year of high school I was in video production and making videos was the most fun I had in a long time. All id need to continue is a mac or a decent video editor program for windows.
