Okay, wait a minute. Let me summarize this thread
- Clayton posts a citation to an article about the 320i.
- Thompson points out that the 320i is unreliable and rusts.
- Clayton points out that it's more reliable than British vehicles of the same era.
Let me just say here that if the best thing you can say about a thing is that it is more reliable than a Triumph, that thing is a pretty sad thing indeed. This is like saying "catches fire less often than a Trabant" or "handles better than a Lincoln Continental."
