Why is it when you look for cars but don't have the cash for it there are LOADS of them... Then when you have the money there are none around!
The hunt still goes on for the right car...
The usual search on Auto Trader, Fish for Cars, Ebay, motors.com and Piston Heads has not turned anything up. I have been to see a Silver one at a dealer in Sheffield and the interior was really worn out!! Must of been a work-mans car, wood shavings in the boot and nicks out of the leather. The worst thing is they wanted nearly £6k for it...
If anyone out there knows of a Silver/Black 330Ci Manual with leather memory seats, black interior and as may toys as possible for sale please let me know :-)
The hunt begins!
After over a years motoring in an E36 320 SE I caught the Bimmer bug....
The 320 is a nice car for it's age. It's comfortable, reasonable insurance and pretty cheap insurance.
However over the year it has cost a fair amount to keep running. In Excess of a thousand pounds to be honest. So it is time for a new car.
This opens up the question to which one.
After looking through the available options. The choice for a an E46 330 Ci was made.
This site will become a large information source for all things E46 and in particular the 330 Ci model.

Replacement of ISCV breather pipe - NO DICE!
I ordered some silicone tubing to replace the old and worn breather hose.
I was hoping this would fix the whining engine noise. Unfortunately this was not the case and the wining still continues!
The rubber intake hose has a section where the breathers go to. This has cracked and had been fixed temporarily with some electricians tape. This will be next to be replaced as air could be getting into the engine and bypassing the MAF sensor.
As always I will keep you posted!
