BMW 330Ci Convertable problems
Anyone in the no about these cars, or have any links to sites/forums etc.
Seen one that i really like but the roof won't go down. this means the price is very good  but i don't know if it's the sort of
thing that is more trouble than there worth.
It's a BMW 330ci 2000 X reg E46
Any help is really appreciated
Thanks Paul

With the British weather this should add value so go for it!

Primary problem with them is driving them for any length of time at all will turn you into a hairdresser.

That is only true for the Z3 and 1 series.

318Ci maybe, 330Ci definitely not. Unless its an auto. In which case the driver needs to be slapped around the highlights.

I have a 530i sport auto as an every day car.
Absolutely fantastic engine and the auto box isn't that bad, especially in sport mode.
A 330ci would be a very nice, quick car and well worth buying and sorting the hood out if the money is right. This car would also get cheap road
tax.

A big plus if you intend maintaining it yourself is excellent diagnostic software that will talk all the various system ECUs on the car is availble
pretty cheaply --- my friend uses CarSoft running on a laptop to link to his 99 528 and gets close to dealer level access
see http://www.arcadiaincar.com
and search site on BMW
