BMW 325ti msport

Post by rosskins » Mon Dec 08, 2014 12:20 am

Absolutely 'Great' car, I have an e46 2003 auto. Picked up 4 years ago ( Dec 2010) with 24k, it has now (Dec2014) 155k and hopefully another 40k+ to boot. Trouble free motoring on motorways, A & B roads, slick engine, smooth auto, lots of fun, speedy and a totally reliable car. 30mpg. I am going to buy another one simples. 'Bullet' made me discover the real class and beauty about BMs. Leather, cruise, sweet exhaust, four seats, squeeze and parkability, and what? £2k??? Shhhhhhh, don't tell anyone. Discuss?

Couldn't agree with you more rosskins! :thumbsup:

After just over 3 happy years of ownership I sold my manual 325ti Sport on Saturday. It was my vaguely sensible car, but it really drove well.

Anyway I've gone slightly more sensible and bought an E91 325i to replace it. Being an SE on 16 inch it's much more refined, but I haven't really had a chance to see what it's like when pressing on a bit!

I continue to love mine, it's just passed 106,000 miles now and lives on winter tyres year round. It tows race cars, commutes, delivers high 20's mpg and sounds good with an induction kit. My colleague bought one, also as a tow car based on how good mine has been.

I just realised I posted a photo of mine on it's winter wheels, so seeing as it was a Sport I'd better post one of it on the proper wheels!

Still I just noticed my 2nd photo has my Z4C in the background - total accident. :roll:

But now I'm torn - in some ways I like my E91, but in others I'm missing my 325ti. In an ideal world I'd have both, but budgetary limits ruled that out. :(

I had a late 320td as daily driver for a while. It handled well and was fairly pokey for a diesel.
It had the M sport wheels and skirts of the 325ti but not the rest of the body kit. With 20mm spacers at the rear and 15mm at the front it actually looked ok too.

You should have pm'd me! :lol:

Funnily enough I had an 04 plate 320tdSE from 2005 to 2008 - before I saw the error of my ways and renounced the fuel of the devil. :) Mind you over 600 miles on one tank was pretty handy at times!
