However, there's always added cost of maintenance with age and extended usage. I think it's easier to find an E36 318i which could be a second family car that's relatively used less and well taken care of. Cos it's relatively cheap to maintain an E36 318i, most of these are well maintained. I didn't find the E36 318i under-powered for daily usage. In fact, the solidity and "feel" it offered over my ex-EK4 Honda Civic made up for it. Then, there are those trips I made up to Genting where it was annoying to be persistently wiped out by those Nissan Sentras. Yet again, I took my ex-E36 318i past the double-O-O mark b4. There are many in this forum like DD who can well afford to upgrade to a 6-potter but yet he keeps enhancing his E36 318i all the time! Having been a proud owner b4, I can sense why. It's a very nimble yet solid and problem free car. Don't shoot me but the E34 can feel like a tank.</p></blockquote><p></p>
