My problem is that there appears to be several black sheep
The E36 in general dosen't appear to be very well built. At first I just thought I had bought a bad one but after using this forum for several months I noticed that the same problems were comming up regularly with other owners cars. And it's not just the E36 either.
My biggest bug bear at the moment is RUST. The last few times I have washed my car I have started to notice that it is appearing everywhere. Nothing very serious but in a couple of years time if left untreated the car will look a right state. Again my first assumption was that it must just be my car, but I have started noticing that a large proportion of E36s, coincidentally in the same places as it is starting to show on my car, are also going rusty.
Again this is not just limited to the E36, I have noticed several E38's starting to go around the back arches, at around the same age as my car. The E34 is not immune either and I don't doubt that in a year or two E39 and E46 owners will start to notice the onset of 'tin worm'
Maybe I just have an unrealistic expections, but surely a company like BMW could make cars with have less of a tendancy to convert to iron oxide!
Anyway I think i've made my point.
I do agree though a pint would be nice and Black sheep would do just fine!
