Hi All,
Time to sell my trusty little daily driver. It served me well for over a year, but we bought a wagon, so this one must go.
1995 318ti Boston green with beige leather interior
Price: $1200
Location: Boston, MA
- M42 ODB1 engine, 188,500 miles on it.
-5-speed manual transmission that shifts very well
- Active package: LSD (pretty hard to find), speed-sensitive wipers (kinda of a 2-speed system, they just slow down when you are stopped), cruise control, sunroof, premium 10-speaker sound system (remember though, 17 year paper speaker cones sound awesome :S)
The good:
- very dependable
- exterior not perfect, perfect for a parallel-parked city car
- Alpine CDE-103BT headunit
Maintenance in the last year:
- tune up: oil, air and fuel filter, spark plugs
- front sway bar link
- hood cable and latch
- cat-back exhaust (oem used, the old one was shot)
- all electrical systems work properly
The not so good
- passenger window clips broke, common E36 problem
- driver seat has seen better days
- headliner sagging pretty good, missing fabric on the sunroof panel
- other exhaust leak at the cat. nothing serious, gives it a nice racing tone
I have a spare oem front exhaust section but never installed it as the downpipe studs/nuts are nasty looking
- rear shocks are dead
- ABS light is on: the 2 front sensors were bad. The 2 screws holding the old sensors snapped when I removed them. In the process of extracting them. I have 2 replacements sensors.
- bubbly rust on the rear wheel wells and paint is oxidized but the body is surprisingly clean
