bmw for a 2.5

ok i was out to day and got talking to some one who owned a r-reg 2.5, and we got to a point in the conversation where they where looking for a car and i was just looking, any way the question came up about swoping my bmw for his fronty,
so how good is the 2.5 and for all you 2.5 drivers out there i know you will be biest, so tell me what to look for, and if its a good deal,

If the 2.5 drives well, not holding back and no management light on they are great cars, bit iffy ( electrics)to fix.

They are a tad more powerful than the 2.8's but the 2.8's win over simplicity of repairs.

If its a good its will be worth it, cant cost anymore than a broken BMW to fix :lol:

he did say that it failed its mot yesterday on a broken spring, he was just geting a new one

He should get two or it will be lobsided :wink:

mmmm i thought that but they only had the one

Strange as the usually get sold in pairs.. how the heck did he bust it anyway :shock:

dont know how he bust it, but they do come as a singel out of the scrapy

Ahhaaa you git you should have said :roll:

I snapped a leaf spring on a toyota liteace years ago. Was a hoot to drive as one of the front wheels kept lifting when I turned corners at anything above 15mph.
