This BMW is owned by me and the V5 is in my name at my address. This vehicle has not ben damaged, or written off and is clear on all registers, (report included) Its not had a colour change or plate transfers. I purchased this car from a work colleague who had it since Jan 2011 after paying top \u00a3\u00a3\u00a3\u00a3\u00a3 for it. The B3 was his daily driver until last year where it has been off the road due to lack of use. My plan with the vehicle was to restore to factory spec and use\/show the car for the forthcoming years. Unfortunately my plans have changed and I am being relocated to North Yorkshire. Being a total BMW nut (4 on the drive) I need to sadly move on this project before completing due to my move. THE CAR To those that understand the brand and hence taking the time to read this listing it a genuine B3 model number 089 3.3 in very good condition. Since owning the car I have started the not too long list of putting right the few issues of which I will be honest about. The interior is in great condition with no rips or tears in the quality leather seats. There is some discolouring to the piping on the drivers side seat but I am being picky mentioning this. All functions work as they should ie, air con, sat nav, CD, sunroof, wheel mounted gear change etc&#8230;etc&#8230; I have recently paid a small fortune getting the woodwork restored a common fault with sunlight lifting the veneer. The outside is in superb condition with no rust to mention and straight undented panels. There are NO modifications to this B3 and it is as is was built with no tacky so called improvements. Engine is original and it starts on the button with no un toward rattles or noises. It awakes the dead once running and is un mistakenly something special. ISSUES The car has no MOT and was last used by my colleague in 2012. In my opinion it needs a set of premium tyres all round and a ABS sensor. The AIR BAG light is on (common problem) and ABS light. The previous owner has replaced all discs and pads with premium items. I paid good money for this car as there are very few B3 E46 left in Europe and very few in this condition. Once in A1 condition and keeping the mileage down this car will only appreciate in value. Hand built engines for this model on this site are going for \u00a32500 and cars in top condition can name their own price. I will allow any inspection but will not allow tyre kickers or adrenaline junkies to take 300 BHP up the road with no MOT. Viewing are more than welcome and the car is located in Wellesbourne CV35.

I had recently bought her and spent a small fortune on her she is now beautiful and drives superbly . She has covered 106k and is backed up by all the correct MOTS denoting the mileage .I was in the process of trying to contact all the previous owners as I always intended to keep her forever . My mechanic is an ex master tech at bmw and is the nuts so I must have spent at least \u00a31700 on her including new tyres and refurbished wheels ( sparkle silver) and later lights. I have just had her detailed . She is advertised elsewhere and i reserve the right to remove at any time. Any questions please pm me.
