@@arathsalgado1904He thought it was a good deal, but cheap German cars are never a good deal really. There maybe that one out there but most of the time not really. Sometimes is worth it if you specialize in that brand or vehicle and REALLY know the problems those certain cars have and know what your getting into
This me with my 1995 toyota Celica gt. Legit bought it for $550 with my first pay check after spotting it on Craigslist. Legit never drove a trailer before but hooked one up, drove 1 hour to CT, brought it home, couldn’t get it off the trailer so paid 150 bucks to a tow company to yank it off cause it’s got 2 seized brakes, needed a new starter, and had been sitting for 8 year. Just gutted the interior today to do clean up of the mold and get it looking smexy. Do i have the money to insure the car? Nope. But it was worth it.
Take it from a E46 owner here, if you plan on just replacing the head gasket before you disassemble the engine re-torque the head bolts (this is to check to see if the threads in the block get pulled out since the engine is also aluminum). If the bolts don't get loose tightening them then you are fine with just doing the head gasket, but if they do get loose then the block is no good and just better off replacing the engine. With the M54s in the e46 with the block being aluminum when they overheat the material gets soft and ends up pulling the threads out of the block when you tighten the head bolts. It all depends on how long and how hot the previous owner let the engine get before the head gasket finally failed. Hope this little bit of info helps with your decision
Thank you very much. I was actually doing research about that so I’ve decided just to put new engine in it just to save myself the hassle of that potentially happening thanks!
They're not unreliable, just owner's don't know how to maintain the car properly. You can't let any of the bmw cooling systems get neglected or you'll be in this situation. BMW cooling system is the down fall of the car, most people think it's like a Japanese or American car to if it gets hot and continue to drive it'll be fine but it will not be.

My guy simply checking the oil before you buy could’ve avoided this

its probably worth more in parts than that, so you could part it out if its unsalvageable
For sure thanks !
please restore it, it will be worth it 100%
Yes! More videos on the way
You didn't have to put blown head gasket in the title when talking about a BMW. It's redundant.
How can you be disappointed after buying one of the most unreliable, expensive to fix beamer there is in existence??
