I've a 2002 E46 330i - had it for 18months. Did a lot of maintenance work including full cooling system overhaul, fuel pump, brakes/rotors, pulleys etc. It drives amazing for a 16 yr old car. Wondering selling this and getting a 2009 128i coupe is a good move. Saw one locally with 167,000 kms (not miles) for about CAD$8000. My 330i only has about 180000kms.
Is this worth considering? Compared to 330, I assume E82s are more expensive to maintain?
Anu suggestions?
The 1 series is a great car ( I have a 135i) and the NA motor in the 128i is a great setup. I don't think that the cost of maintenance will increase for you, maybe a very very minor bump, but nothing concerning. Are you looking for a standard daily driver or something that you can also work on and tune?
