The S54 (later M3 engine) is more refined than the earlier S50 engine but not a huge amount in it in real world driving.
They are pretty bomb proof for such a highly tuned car, vanos and notorious boot floor welds are cheap fixes nowadays.
running / servicing costs are cheap
The 2.8 and 3 litres can be had for nothing, but the ///M will command an ever increasing premium. They will always hang on the coattails of the coupes but I prefer the roadies.
I'll happily sell my reg to the coupe guys when the cars hit £100k :grin:
