good lord this is one of those threads that I wish I had seen before I bought my e90.

bought it from big motoring world just over 3 months ago (long enough for the warranty to expire!!!)

not had *touch wood* any problems at the moment, and to be honest my experience was completely fine. Granted the salesman knew absolutely nothing about the cars I was interested in, and knew nothing about cars in general. But I picked up a 2012, 1 previous owner (bmw garage with full service history) e90 sport plus with only 23k on the clock, for a perfectly competitive price.

I was somewhat aware of the bad rep, but did my research, picked out a few cars online, all of which were still available when I went for a visit, took it for a decent test drive and walked away happy.

going by this thread I am obviously in the minority, but I have to say, as long as you know what you're looking at, I don't see what the all the fuss is about. (flame suit on)

I guess only time will tell as to whether or not my opinion stays the same.
