Seller description

Hello,My number is 765-456-1788, feel free to call me if you have any questions. You can also email me by replying to this ad.This very nice and clean 1996 BMW 318ti with 81,908 miles. The car has averaged right under 5700 miles per year, that's very low considering most drivers put 15,000 miles per year on a vehicle.Within the last couple days I had the car inspected by a ASE certified repair facility. He inspected it and told me its a very solid car. He put it up on a lift and inspected the engine/transmission and he also took it for a test drive. The engine and transmission did not have any mechanical issues and operate as they should. He told me that the car appears to have been very well cared for mechanically. He replaced the oil & filter and replaced all four tires. All other service was up to date.The car needs no maintenance other then a oil/filter change in 3000 miles, it does not leak any fluids and runs great.You are welcome to call the mechanic that did the inspection. If you would like to have the car inspected by your own mechanic before you purchase, you are welcome to do that as well.MechanicallyI usually have my vehicles for a week or two before I list them on the internet, this gives me enough time to personally drive them for a few days and then get them inspected. I put about 50 miles on this car and it drives great. It really has that "BMW ride" everyone always refers to. It feels very solid on the highway with no abnormal steering wheel vibrations, in town driving is great as well. The engine does not make any abnormal noises, no ticking or knocking. It starts right up every morning and idles very smooth when in neutral. The car accelerates without any hesitation or jerking and the transmission shifts smooth through all gears with no issues. The clutch feels very good with no slippage or clutch chatter. The streering feels great with no abnormal play and so does the suspension. The gas mileage was great, i was avg around 30-31 mpg on the highway. There are no issues with the car at all and I wouldn't hesitate to take it on a 1000 mile round trip.The 1.9L 4-cyl is a very well knows motor for BMW. They have had the same engine around for several years. I have seen 318's with over 200,000 still in excellent running condition, this one has right around 80,000 miles so it has a lot of life left.Normally when someone buy's a vehicle like this, they take very good care of it. These are the type of vehicles that's parked in the garage, and always serviced at the dealer on time. This one lives up to that example.ElectricalThe AC and heat works great, power sunroof works, power windows work, remote door locks works and so does the radio.ExteriorThe car was very well cared for by the previous owner and it definitely shows. The over all condition of the paint is in great shape with no fading issues.Dont hesitate to call or email if you have any questions.Thank you for looking and have a nice day.
