The Appeal
Held dear by motorists across the globe, BMW’s 3 Series boasts a well-earned reputation for offering a fantastic balance of classy styling, lavish comforts, practicality, and performance. The fifth generation of the 3 Series, otherwise known as the E90-93, certainly doesn’t fall short of expectations, proudly showcasing a host of cosmetic and mechanical improvements over the previous generation.
Within this generation of 3 Series sits the E93 convertible platform, which became BMW’s first production model to utilize a retractable folding hardtop. As previous generations simply used cloth roofs, the E93 convertible offers the perks of both a hard-top coupe and a top-down cabriolet at the push of a button. As such, you’ll find the E93 is more than adept at anything from spirited weekend drives in the sunshine to the demands of daily driving.
This particular example also deserves recognition for its incredibly low mileage figure, which currently sits at just 9,044 miles. Perhaps equally as impressive, this gorgeous 320i has been enjoyed by just 1 former keeper, spending a great deal of its recent years in heated storage. After being thoroughly enjoyed by the current keeper since 2022, this sleek convertible is now looking for its next loving home.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
- If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
- If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
-
- Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
- We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
| Bid Amount | Increment |
|---|---|
| £0 to £9,999 | £100.00 |
| £10,000 to £49,999 | £250.00 |
| £50,000 to £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
