Looking at getting a 1er...

Hi guys, I've been thinking about getting myself a 130i hatch for a little while now, I've been keeping an eye on 1addicts to try and get up to speed with whats out there & what to expect and I have a few questions.

What parts are common to the hatch and coupe? e.g. suspension bits - I know e90/2 M3 parts can be swapped to a E82, but will they also fit a E87? I've also read that the Ohlins coilover setup is a really nice upgrade and that the E82 guys get the kit for the E90/2, will this also fit the E87?

Are there any other common parts of note?

Also, is there anything specific to the 130 that should have been addressed/checked? Like the HPFP in the DI engines?

Any other info or tips would be greatly appreciated. (Also if anyone knows of someone wanting to sell a graphite, blue or white manual 130i for a good price I'd appreciate a prod in their direction! )
