Default Anyone know about BMW's?

looking at a nice 328 coupe(96) on pistonheads, looks well smart almost like an M3

Is there anything to look out for on these? apart from the obvious

Only real issue is the nikasil block. It ideally should have been replaced by now however some that haven't are still going strong.
