Message	Aftermarket prices are half the dealer cost, and either use the same OEM vendor or sometimes better. There are so many 325's on the road, parts are relatively cheap and available. I have owned this one from 50k to 80k miles. Besides wear items, it has only had a few sensors and small parts fail. Easy to diagnose and easy to repair. If you do your own work, this car is not going to be a money pit. Far from it. The bread van is my neighbors. Inside is motorcycle trike with a worked VW engine covered by a quarter-midget rear body fairing. Neat setup all the way around. _________________________________________________
