BMW 325 Turbo Diesel - good car?
Local outfit has recently imported and is selling a 92 BMW 325 Turbo diesel 5 speed, low kms. I know 325's are reputed to be good cars, but don't know anything about the reliability of the 6 cyl turbo-diesel in them. DOes anyone have knowledge about these? THanks.

Probably as good or better quality than the gasser with better fuel economy.
No personal experience, though. Tom W

BMW 325 diesel
Would be concerned about availability of parts. Imported the car from Japan or Europe?? It seems all imports from Japan have low mileage and no records.

Yeah I had the same thought (parts availability). It was evidently imported from Germany. I may go look at it just for curiosity, look at the condition of the vehicle, see if there are records. Mileage seems suspect (less than 100k kms) for a 92 diesel....

Supposibly to have a very very rare engine, a very good engine.
