Unfortunately I try to get as much information as I can and to put my ideas into practice. Facts: 1) Berlin, city, lack of parking 2) I always drive, woman usually drives with, sometimes co-driver 3) I haven’t got the rags yet – but am Ü25 4) I have a car buddy who knows very well 5) Connection to a cheap workshop, also likes to screw itself 6) I guess I will drive under 10,000km a year; more city, from time to time should 1) Would like to drive BMW again (my old one I sold), but would also accept me with golf or Skoda or the like 1a) The BMW should have ASC+t 2) Should look somewhat sporty, I like zb Stafenhecks 3) Would not spend more than 2,000€, theoretically I could.. But as a beginner no desire on it 4) Maintenance should be reasonably favorable; insurance runs over father-in-law 5) Interior equipment is for me 6) Iwas in the range 90-120hp Currently I observe above all E36 Compact 316i and 318i, have read me a bit pure and I can live with the haters and “problems”. I find it nice small, economical, sporty and the trunk mega good when you have to go to IKEA and above all the things seem to be quite cheap to have.. Could have had one for 1,400€ with new TÜV, 107tkm, top maintained etc. but not so important, climate and seat heating should already be in there. I was too slow, I didn’t agree immediately – still annoy me about it.. Questions: Which models would you recommend to me? Can you also look at the E46? I have read that the more cocks should have than an E36. Also I have read that a Golf 5 should not be as good as a Golf 4, on the other hand I like the few (not sporty enough). Right nice I find the Golf 3 as a convertible but I don’t want to drive a convertible I’m also watching an A at the moment. lfa Romeo 147 – that should have some quirks and be relatively expensive in maintenance/reperature..?! Would I just like a bit of input and a few ideas Would also be happy if you would review the ads that I would put in over time.
