yeah, it probably would be cheaper. It's a collegue of mine who has a minty mint 318 which he would like to put air con in.

Just thought i'd ask. I'm sure there is someone who has done this!

...beware on a 318 if you fit aircon,if you see a hill coming you will have to switch aircon off!

it's likely to cost at least Ł1k if the parts are available, so it doesn't make financial sense on a 318 imo
