Awesome!!!!!
loving the car chris, currently driving a 318 tds myself, love the handling, hate the power and want a 325 now lol
is the economy really that bad?? mine is quite bad, thought the bigger engine may be better as the 1.7 engine in mine is really underpowered for the car, feels like its constantly struggling.
as for cutting out issue, mine does same, seems to be a common enough problem with them, its cos of the lift pump in tank wired to cut in and out for some reason???? seen guides where people replace the original pump with a facet one and run new wires from ignition live.
As for power upgrades, would an VNT not be possible on these engine, have an ecu, TPS so surely a controller could be easily made for one?
oh and like you im wanting a diesel coupe, except im looking at e36 shells for transplanting into
