I have a 318Is in excellent shape with less than 116,000 miles on her. Picture is my signature. I can get more pictures if desired.
The engine is in absolutely tip-top shape (knock wood). Used 5w30 synthetic oil every time. Coolant recently flushed. Inspection II is due @ 120k.
**The only problem is the thermostat acts funny sometimes; it sticks open and doesn't allow the car to reach it's operating temp. I will have it, the housing, gaskets, and water pump replaced before selling though.
**Brakes have less than 7.5k on them; same as rear tires; same as control arms, bushings; same as all four tie rods (front).
**front driver's seat has a 2.5 inch tear on bottom.
**Three fairly large key marks on the car. (Two on driver, one on passenger) [each one extends from midway of the rear quater panel to midway on the door] Other than that the paint looks new and shiny.
**Car was in an accident in May 2004. It was repaired by a BMW certified repair shop at a ridiculous cost of over $7k. The car was rear ended; I have pics of the accident if you would like them. I also have receipts and documentation regarding frame damage / repair.
**Suspension rides like it's new, but I do not know when it was replaced.
**Front headlights have been replaced off a 1998 328Ic. These are not fogged.
**Installed an arm rest (matching interior color). It came off of a 1999 328I.
**Installed a radio from a 1998 M3; not business radio, but it has weather band and all those (silly) features.
**Will come with two BMW alpine radios with both codes.
**Have most service records (all performed by dealer or BMW certified Mechanic)
**All original books.
**10 Disc Sony changer w/ remote (new model)
**Will most definitely pass state inspection. I promise that.
**THE car is in really good shape, I am not just saying that.
Make me a realistic offer and we can discuss it. Tis a great first car; reliable and safe. When I had my accident (the guy in a full size Bronco plowed into me at 28mph and I was stopped) I didn't even have a soar neck; it felt like someone tapped my car while parking. Very safe. Very Agile; a bit under powered, but a blast to drive. PM for my phone number or email address. It will be difficult to arrange a time to see the car in the next 2-3 weeks, so if you're in a hurry to find a car this one may not be the one for you.
Thanks. Sean
