Hello everyone

My name is si and im a complete newbie when it comes to the world of BMW.

I currently drive a vauxhall nova GTE and a escort rs cosworth. (I can see me getting banned here lol)

I had a drive of my mates 330 and i really liked it

Im looking into buying a 3 series BMW convertible manual.

It has to be black and i like the look of the black interior

Ive looked at tax and insurance and it makes sense for me to look at the 330.

Now i have a couple of questions

Ive seen 330i 330ci and 330ci m whats the difference ???

Also Whats the difference between a E36 and a E46 ??????

Ive seen a couple of 3 series on auto trader and ive included the photos i know one is a 2 litre but they look slightly different is that the E36 and a E46 ?????

As i say im a newbie so any help would be great

Many thanks in advance

Si

Hi si

330i=5 door

330ci=coupe

330ci m sport= sports package lots of different things mainly face lift/pos napper interior etc, no extra power the same as above!

M3 if your after power cozzy to a 330 debatable in my opinion.

330's still a very cool car,

And welcome to the forum...

      Can a VIN decoder really help me check a car’s history?

      Hi David Welcome to the Forum A Vin decoder is a useful tool as it lets you know what was on the original cars build sheet but that only tells you what toys it should have. As its a 2021 car it will have had one MOT which hopefully is clear of any advisories, you can check recall and MOT at www.gov.uk/check-mot-history Next check all tyres are correct and in good condition odd or mismatched tyres can cause havoc with Transfer cases Transmissions and diffs. The rest is History History History plus making sure everything works as it should Good Luck Dave

      Can a VIN decoder really help me check a car’s history?

      Hey everyone, I’m thinking about buying a 2021 BMW X3 and want to make sure I’m covering all my bases before making a decision. I’ve heard about VIN decoders and how they can give you details about a car, but I’m not sure what kind of info they actually provide. Do they show anything useful, like accident history or open recalls? Or are they just for basic specs? If you’ve used one that worked well, I’d love to hear about it and any tips for getting the most out of it. Thanks so much!

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      Hi, Yes The air bag light is on. I have not heard of an emulator? It must be a device to turn the light off? The person that owned this before me was an older lady but maybe she had a mechanic do something to this? Thanks for your help, JayMe
