Two former registered keepers, in current ownership since 2001
Stored in a private garage for 21 years and driven sparingly
Re-spray carried out by BMW with seals and trims replaced, we are told
MOT valid to May 2027 with no advisories
Private registration 'M3 MNR' included
The Appeal
The BMW E36 M3 GT Individual is among the rarest and most coveted variants of BMW's celebrated M3 lineage. With just 50 right-hand-drive examples produced, each carrying bespoke Individual specification, the M3 GT represented the pinnacle of the E36 generation, a car that married the raw performance of BMW's naturally aspirated straight-six with a level of exclusivity that very few production BMWs have ever matched.
This particular example, number 18 of 50, is finished in the striking Individual British Racing Green, over a Mexico Green Nappa leather and Anthracite Alcantara interior with M-coloured seat accents and Graphite Birds Eye maple wood trims, a specification that is quintessentially of its era and enormously desirable today. It has had just two former registered keepers, with the current owner having acquired it in 2001, and the previous two keepers being family members who sold to one another. Originally purchased from Bates of Harold Wood BMW, it comes accompanied by its BMW service history and original paperwork.
Having been stored in a private garage for the last 21 years and driven sparingly, the car has been carefully preserved rather than subjected to daily use. With its extraordinary rarity, highly desirable specification and decades of careful custodianship, this M3 GT Individual presents a compelling opportunity for the discerning BMW collector.

This 1995 BMW M3 GT E36 is one of just 50 examples produced and is finished in the desirable Individual British Racing Green. Configured in right-hand drive, it retains its distinctive factory features, including the M3 GT aerodynamic package and unique Mexico Green Nappa leather over Anthracite Alcantara interior, complemented by M-coloured seat accents and Graphite Birds Eye maple wood trim. The car has reportedly benefited from a full respray, during which all seals and exterior trims are said to have been replaced. OUL_2763-2 Luke Papworth.jpg8.95 MB
