The mechanical parts of the 1600/2002 are really simple and easy to fix. Lots of parts are available from lots of sources, including your BMW dealer.
The real problem is rust. Lift up the carpets and look at the floor. It is not unusual to have the pedal cluster almost fall out, and have big holes in the floor. The front tires pile sand in between the body and front fender which rusts out both. The rear fender lip will rust really badly and separate from the quarter panel. All of this is fixable if you have the time and money.
They are a really great driving car, but could use a bit more horsepower.
