BMW 3-Series E36 (1991 - 1998) - buying an old BMW 2 Jun 2009 (Forum)
Am I going to be dissappointed going from my 1999 Octavia 2.0 petrol (which is also pretty clean and drives okay if a little heavy) to a 1995 BMW 318?

[note that my expectations are realistic - this is entering bangernomics territory afterall] Finally, if the answer to the above question is "No" what would you advise me to pay?
