Thinking of buying the 1981 BMW M?
No 1981 BMW M is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 1981 BMW M, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
A buyer's checks
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Under the hood
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
What the M is like
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.
Try before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the M first, and buy only if it fits your life. Drive the M on your commute before you commit to it.
Which one to look for
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
