Not a bmw, but my first car that I bought private in the good old days of the buynsell. When I think of it I must have been stupid some fellow selling cars out of a garden in house in which he was renting a room. The car was a jap import primera looked like a taxi (which kept herself an 3 kids happy) but as far as I was concerned It had all the extras sr20 engine and the low ratio jap gearbox (buttons to insure) there wasn't.much without a turbo that could take it, up to 180k anyways until the limiter kicked in.7 years 3 ncts 75k and bar regular service and tyres a 10 pound brake line was all that was needed. sold the car to a neighbour on the condition that when they were selling I got first refusal. When that time came had to refuse as didn't have the space. Wish I had a garage instead of a playroom.
