Looking at a 2009 BMW 318/320: any opinions? Also, is it true that there are better specs on the UK versions
Thanks for your advice

Hi Dan,
Yes, UK cars often have higher spec levels than Irish models (although base spec is essentially the same), but you will of course pay extra at VRT time for any toys. Beware the N47 diesel engine timing chain issues though — don’t buy a car that hasn’t got a full BMW service history.
