That's because it breaks a lot of the time

A £1500 BMW will be a nail and/or be very old (15+ years).
It will require care and attention left right and centre.
You find an example of 15 year old Beemer that is reliable as a 5 year old one and I will take my hat off to you, but you won't beause old cars break, simple as. Old BMW's cost a lot when they break.
I said at least £1500, it is a ballpark figure, not an OMG will cost the same price as the car to maintain. I was trying to help the op but you insisted in coming into the thread and being a bit of an antisocable, hate filled tard.

If I wanted an "interesting" car for 1500 quid, I'd probably get a 406 Coupe V6...I think specifying that it must be RWD negates plenty of good machinery

In running costs?

Hmm true, I was going on my friend's experience where his only issues have been with the diesel engine. I thought the 3.0 V6 was quite common?

Mk3 Toyota Supra? Should get an ok/good one for £1500, engines are high maintenance [Head gaskets mainly], and they rust like nobodies business. Seems to fit the bill, while being equally temperamental as a £1500 BMW
Havent really been looking for them to be honest!
I thought it was quite popular in the 407 and C5 though
