Default BMW e36 325i vs Sierra 24v cossie 4x4 guess who wins.

E36 didn't come in H-reg's J-regs were the first so it must be a E30 325i

The E36 325i are 192bhp std
The E30 325i are 168bhp std

Nah it's E36 not the box shape E30 and it is one of the first ones around so i guess it's 192bhp then.

beemers arent all that, especially as most are on slush boxes. 24v's are ok and quick. However saying that my bros had aq E30 325i and nowt special, a nice car but thats about it. my 12v when standard would cane it most 4x4's will kill most things off the line whether its a cossie or v6, the exception to the rule is the 2.0 DOHC

i'd say there probably werent much in it, i recon the sierra would pull on the beemer but nothing to write home about...

now, go out and try a 330Ci... they're quick (for a non-performance car)
