Id be concerned for a 2l engine with 180k miles on it tbqpfh

Id imagine about 3psi on each cylinder

I think you would notice if it was that bad on a test drive/viewing lol

I wanna get an 323coupe next year, or maybe a pimped up e30. They are nice cars, but I dunno if theyve got best bang for buck, they need a big engine to get going.

But Im having 1380cc mini thoughts lately  :roll:
I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

I thought you were loving your new MX, why the want to change so soon?

I also think you should stray your thoughts from those pretty little sardine tins for something reliable and sturdy :)

The mx is fun but I wouldnt mind something faster & mini-shaped.

The 320 is underpowered.

I had a 318i which was not too bad on petrol but wasnt fast at all. The 325 is sooo much better performance wise.

it may be under powered but so is a 1.4 astra compared to what im used to

im not looking for a fast car for the daily commute, hell itll probably be an auto tbh need sommit to keep me and my license relatively safe

318:

Engine Size: 1796 cc
Cylinders: 4
0-60 mph: 10.9 s
Power Output: 115 bhp
Valves: 8
Torque: 168 Nm
Top Speed: 125 mph

320:

Engine Size: 1991 cc
Cylinders: 6
0-60 mph: 9.6 s
Power Output: 150 bhp
Valves: 24
Torque: 190 Nm
Top Speed: 134 mph


Thats a fair step up from your 318 tbh plenty of torque and 150bhp isnt too bad
