shifting problem

i'm a newbie here, but this looks like a great forum for tech. well, i'm looking at a E36 318i sedan and its got a couple wierd problems. first of all, it doesn't lock into any of the forward gears, (R, 1, 3, 5) but 2 and 4 feel normal. it will move itself in the forward gears if you hold it in when not moving, or when you are accelerating, but when you let off the gas, the shifter moves back to neutral. just wondering if this is just a shifter bushing or something that may be bad that can be easily fixed. the car has high miles but i'm picking it up VERY cheap! let me know if anyone has any ideas before i buy this 318. thanks in advance!!!! i'll ask about the rest of the problems after i get this one figured out! thanks!
