318 should do waaaaaaaay more than 24mpg! The CTR should do over 30/32 if you drive sensibly.

on a seriouse note, i too looked at the 318 coupe, insurance was groupe 13ish i recall, not bad cars, a lot of luxury to the £. 4.5k will get you a pretty decent n reg one, 17s, tints, mtech kit, letheur etc etc

I've got a 328 coupe and its not that expensive to run. I don't know where the 24 mpg came from? I think someone just made that up. I can easily get 35mpg out of mine on the motorway.
Last inspection 2 service from a specialist cost £180 plus brake pads.
I've had the clutch done, that was £350 from my specialist (BMW parts) new radiator was £150 plus fitting. (again BMW part)
The cost of owning a BMW really has come down. I think VW/audi parts are more expensive these days.
