BMW 2002-

can be a daily driver no problem, they are amazingly reliable cars and very fun to drive. If you want a hotrod then drop a 90-91 318is engine and trans into one for an instant hooligan machine that get great gas mileage and is a blast to drive. Excellent parts support, easy to maintain/repair, and you can pick up a good driver with a 5speed swap for 10 or less easy enough. I have a beater that was a parts car for a car I sold a couple years ago, blow by, leaky everything, 200,000mi, beat to death and still screams after starting on the first kick. Just drove it from northern to southern California without a hitch. I have had a few British cars and none were good as daily drivers unless you removed the British bits under the dash and hood, what is the point?
