I am thinking of selling my E83 3.0D Msport. After only buying my X3 in February for 8.5K we're thinking of downsizing our fleet.

Edit. wife keeps changing her mind, so God knows where we are going with this. So at this moment in time we're keeping both cars, this all started with the 3 series keep" bonging " an ABS fault, it went in to the indie as I suspected through my Carly diognostics that the ABS pump was showing no communication.
The indie said the plug on the ABS needed cleaning, I'd looked at the codes on the internet and it said the ABS modules on the early E9# cars was prone to the DC motor packing in and throwing this fault.
After they cleaned the connections and cleared down the faults it showed all OK.
2 days later it bonged up again, this caused the wife to throw her toys out of the Pram and demand we get newer cars.
Cars back in the indie, the ABS pump has been sent away for repair, 3/5 days. If they can fix it £200+ vat it will be refitted, brakes bled and sorted.
At the moment she's happy driving the X3, so fingers crossed I will just use the 3 series.

I'm trying to defuse the situation at the moment by saying she can take on the X3 as her daily driver and I will use the 3 series. I'm hoping once the sun comes out again she will fall in love with the E93 again.
Watch this space.
