£3500. He did have another 318i (not an SE) for £3000, but the bodywork needed a bit of fixing up, and it was on 96,000 miles. £3500 also covered the full service, MOT, new discs and pads all round, a new set of side repeater lenses because the ones that were on there were cracked, and a full valet (not that the last one matters, but it's nice to drive away in a clean car).
And yeah, I will be posting up photos of it when I pick it up, and I'll be letting everyone know how I get on with the dyno. I'm hoping it hasn't lost much, maybe down to 130bhp? I reckon the mods I have planned will bring it up to 160bhp/170bhp, maybe more. I wanted a 325Ci, 192bhp as standard and I found loads of low mileage ones that were probably at about 180bhp. Was looking forward to tuning one of those, but couldn't afford the insurance
