Hiya

Glad to have found your site -- most especially the downloads section :)

This is my first modern bmw. I've got several old 2002s and a tii but came accross a 91 318is for $500 so I couldn't pass it up.

Its in great shape but for an engine tick that I hope is just a timing chain tensioner. I haven't had time to investigate but after burning up my modem some with the manuals I hope to get it sorted out.

cheers for the site and hopefully the 318is will be on the road soon.
