I think His salary is fine if he want to enjoy life... Earning so much and owning everything is nothing if You are dead tomorrow <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />But then again I Own an E46 when my Salary is about that Figure... and (Other than owning a GEM) i think i spend less than RM5 K so far... as most of the things are either DIY or Friends Installed and parts are from the Best+Cheapest Source = Save tons of money.Rule of Thumb is 1/3 of Salary = Car +Fuel... then ur actually good to live comfortable <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />Hurmmm looking at 4K should be ok ... Some repairs can be hold for a few months then solved some are urgent...MOST CASE are rich farts who knows Jack and keep changing/repairing stuff that they don't know the purpose or problem ... Not to mentioned Unimportant upgrades and works on Their UDM. Thats why it sound and cost expansive... In Reality... All Normal Fault Cost less than RM500 if you know where to look and "the know how" enough not to be cheated by self proclaimed experts in the workshop.Urgent Works will cost less than 2K-3KUrgent Major works will cost less than 6KMajor Interconnected Problems cost Less than 10K-20k (which usually can be done in stages *correct me if im wrong)More than that its either uve been cheated... As most of the money are spend on paying for profit and labour which is always overcharged... Ebay all E46 Parts New/Old you will know the price...And once you change that part (if its a good one) it will last at least 3 times longer than normal cars. Hence the need to Have a Saving of 10K at least if you want to solve everything in a go... honestly there is still a long list to make my UDM perfect mint condition but we need to know which one is urgent/important firstRegards to all future BMW Owners <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Its not named UDM for nothing</blockquote>
