BMW USED CARS

The best place for used cars tests - Russian roads. That is why we present russian article about 3 series BMW e36 cars.

BMW 3-Series debuted in 1988. Its design has caused widespread controversy. Opponents argued that stylistically the machine falls out of the total number and generally too advanced for the BMW. Among those who stand up for the BMW 3 was Paul Brak. By the time he no longer worked for BMW, but it did not prevent him saying: "3-series - the best thing done in the BMW after my departure."

In Moscow, the first BMW 3 appeared almost immediately after the debut. It was a black car with tinted windows and flashing mayachkom on the rear window shelf. BMW looked threateningly and elegant, was always clean and napolirovannoy, and went at a speed of not less than 120 km / h.

Sooner or later, every vehicle is at the service. This does not necessarily mean that he is sick. A good owner in the service zaezzhaet and for the sake of prevention. But, as the practice of exploiting the BMW 3-Series in our country, zaezzhat in the service is meaningful only immediately before the renovation. You are surprised and ask, but what other options there are? Experience the official dealers shows that many people (usually the owners of cars without instructions, ie, second-hand) come to them in their BMW only to inquire about the mechanical features of the machine operation. And a little disappointing to learn that no such features.

Another year, another round of subtle changes to make one of the most heralded automobiles ever made even better. For decades, the BMW 3 Series has been the benchmark in the entry-level luxury car market -- be it in sedan, coupe, convertible or wagon guise. Typically, this BMW has offered a magnificent blend of restrained luxury, top-notch build quality, just-right size, ample feature content and a ride/handling balance that other manufacturers have been unsuccessfully trying to copy for ages.

For the 2009 BMW 3 Series, a few changes have been made to keep its superior status intact. Some of the sedan and wagon's more questionable styling elements have been rectified. These models receive a new front fascia that's reminiscent of the sexier coupe and convertible, and their streamlined cabooses mark a return to the more attractive BMW tradition of L-shaped taillights. The coupe and convertible have been left alone this year, and that's fine with us, as the sedan and wagon were the only members of the family that needed some cosmetic surgery.

Some said it didn't make sense. When BMW brought the 1 Series stateside last year, skeptics said there wasn't really a place in the market for another compact performance two-door. Now into its second year, the BMW 1 Series is proving the pessimists wrong. As the company's entry-level model, the 1 Series turns heads, even amid much more rare and expensive cars. Although "cute" is often used to describe this coupe and convertible, don't let the 1 Series' diminutive dimensions fool you -- this car is anything but demure. Under the hood are the same powerful engine choices as in the marque's more expensive and larger 3 Series.
