  • 1 to replace 2. Yup, with the E30 & W124 sold, I needed another daily-driver, and was scoping the classifieds for something that ticked all my boxes. It had to be a 5sp manual, preferably rear-wheel drive, and easy to maintain. Equally important, it had to have a low annual road tax. This is important when you own several cars...
    Viola! Found this rare BMW E36 318i out in Banting, went to see it and drive it twice, sealed the deal.
    Collected her yesterday, she's getting a full check-up now and then off to the painters! Stay tuned for more to come folks, fun times ahead! Let's see if I can do as the title says, cap it all at 10k, including the purchase price, wish me luck! 😀

      On a serious note though, nice to see an old BMW that isn't riddled with fake M badges/wheels/bodykit. Do have abit of a soft spot for the mid 90's to early 2000's 3 and 5 series'es (Is that how you say that in plural?)

      @@HuntaKiller91 Definitely. It seems like many people in Malaysia has an impression of "2nd hand = The previous owner has problems/ran it till totally dies", but it isn't always like that.

    Congrats bro. E36 is my favourite 3 Series ever. It still looks as good now as the first time I saw it in 1991. I know what you mean by the BMW smell. When I drove an E84 X1 back in 2015, the moment I sat in it, I remembered the interior smell of my uncle's E30 from the 80s. Brought back sweet memories of childhood.
