Default Hi ! 323ti from France

Hi everybody.


Sorry if my english's sometimes bad but i'm not native.

My name's Yannick. I'm from France.

I discovered your forum few month ago, and bought a "light crashed" 323ti. It has 152000km ( little less than 100000 miles ) and it's a 1998 version.

I m fixing it, and will be ok for the January 20th.

See you later on the forum.

So here's my 323ti.

I was looking for a car to discover the track without too much budget.


The Compact is a good choice i think, much lighter than the saloon and really cheap here.

When i bought it/

No damage on the subframe. But the "fender hanger" the you can see with the fender out on one pic need to be replaced...
