Hi im new - help please!

Hi,

I have just registered on here, im looking for some info on the models 316 and 318.

I am currently looking to buy either a 316 or a 318 coupe. Just wondered if anyone could give me any tips or things to look out for.
I am looking to get around an N reg one.

I hear the 316 is a bit sluggish performance wise? also, is there a different engine in the 318 than in the 318is?
Which would be better?


Any info would be really helpful.

Thanks a lot, Dan
