BMW 325Ti 2001
Owned for 5.5 years.
Done all the maintenance myself, changed the entire cooling system, power steering pump etc.
Most recent trip was a 380 mile jaunt to Middlesbrough from Swansea to watch the football. Didn't miss a beat.

Had this for around 16 months now:-
(Pic from the day I got it)

 

I loved my 325Ti - even the headlights didn't bother me after a while. Otherwise I think it was the best of the E46, the hatchback practicality is great. I had an E87 130i after it which had a magnificent engine, but every other aspect of it was a significant step down from the E46.

 

My run around... gets me from A to B

 

Can't see your image...

 

I drive a beat up 2008 Toyota Aygo (with A/C and electrical windows btw) the blower motor for inside air gave up on me, now I suffer every summer and every winter. I've gone through many minor accidents together and it's the love of my car life. I won't show it here because 1. I can't for the life of me upload the picture link properly, 2. I'm kind of shy and thankful the forum is acting up while uploading the image

 

Still these... Daily, Nice weather

Well after my incident the other day I needed a new motor

So picked up this, it was supposed to be a sensible first car for my daughter, that I could use in the interim......I'm not the best at shopping

I suppose it is only 115bhp, I don't think she'll mind, the missus however......

 

An Up GTi, nice choice. Around the same power as a Mk1 Golf GTi, IIRC.
I had a pair of Up Highs (75hp no turbo) on PCP, before switching to a Renault Zoe EV.

 

Yup it's a decent little motor, surprisingly capacious, easily accommodates 4 adults, drives well too, steering is a bit too light but very chuckable, not sure I'd class it as a GTi, it's so slow but to be fair it feels fast which is probably ideal for a new driver when she eventually owns it, missus kept telling me to slow down as she thought I was flying in it despite not even cracking the speed limit

We had a couple of Highs in our shortlist a 75 and a 90, commanding strong money, plus a 60bhp i10 and a Seat Mii FR Line, the GTi was a bit of a wildcard, it was local and barely any more dough than the Highs, so went and had a look and I wanted it right away, didn't even bother with the rest

Considering what these small cars sold for they didn't depreciate a lot.
