With a 328i Sport Coupe, for my BMW convertible. Im really tempted but all the extra costs are making me give it some serious thought; another £200 insurance, fuel etc...

Well at some point yes dunno what would be easier to sale aswell tho, i know the sports are quite rare and desirable but the big engine puts it out of most peoples range

Need a 318is thats the only BMW 1.8 (Well 1.9) engine worth having

140 BHP on the E36 so much better than the normal 318i
143 BHP on the E46 (Normal 318i E46 models due to the vvti engines)

hmm i would be wondering why they want to swap as the 328i is a more desirable car!
also only thing is the spoiler doesnt look a genuine BMW one and shouldnt they have the M3 mirrors on that?

M3 mirrors only came on the M3 model...funny enough

Spoilers fine!!

Id swap but either way you will sell whichever you take within 2 weeks so just go with whatever will make most cash!!
