Default Hello from Colorado!

Hi everyone!
I am a "new" 318Ti owner, I bought a 97 on Friday but sadly didn't get one full day of driving in before the heater hose broke. I have a new one on order and should be here soon. However, I love the car. Spent the weekend getting her all cleaned up and fixing a few little things. I am noticing some things missing from the engine compartment and some connections that are not connected to anything so I will be posting some pictures in the next few days for help on those issues. I have already learned a lot just going through and reading posts. I am excited to add my own touch to this BMW and make some new friends!

Sorry everyone, realized I put this in the wrong place. Just saw the intro section, please forgive me!

Welcome aboard! The ti will give you tons of fun, with some mishaps along the way but it's worth it.

Greetings,

Did "ya" happen to grab that Silver Automatic I noticed up for sale in Fort Collins last week?

Looks like it was a very neglected car when I saw it and with a lot of love she could be a nice daily driver for you.

Welcome. Looks like you are a DIY person, glad to see you are noticing thing under the hood. A few extra harnesses are there for different options but you still should go through them to ensure your previous owner didn't "Jerry Rig" some stuff.

I like owners that look things over and ask question when things don't look right. Hope we can help you on here.

Best, John Smith

Welcome to the site. I had my ti for just over a month now and I couln't be happier with it. I've done some work on it myself and have enjoyed learning things in the process. Folks on this site are very helpful and friendly.
