1986 BMW E30 320i Auto
Polaris Metallic (Silver)
Straight 6 cylinder M20B20 / 4 speed Automatic
137, 500 miles
2-door Pre-facelift Chrome bumper car with electric sunroof and mirrors, onboard computer & Pop-out rear windows.
Reluctant sale of a very genuine, straight & rust free E30 which I have owned since 2018, the car was taken off the road in 2011 by previous owner and kept in dry storage.
It has since been recommissioned and was MOT’d again in May 2021; recently passed current MOT which expires May 2023.
Complete with extensive service history & folder of receipts; including receipts for all recent parts which includes:
• New Radiator
• New front indicators
• New Timing Belt & water pump and auxiliary belts
• Multiple new Vacuum & inlet hoses
• Reconditioned alternator
• New Battery
• New wiper motor
• 4 x New Bilstein shocks including top mounts
• 4 x New brakes (Front discs / rear drums, shoes & cylinders)
• New tie-rods
• Reconditioned front calipers
• Car is lowered c. 40mm
• Every bush, including diff mount replaced with BMW bushes
• New diff oil
• Front & rear subframes treated and painted with POR15
• Period correct MIM 1900 alloys (15x7 ET13) Professionally refurbished with BMW Ferric Grey Centres and Polished lip fitted with 2 x new front tyres / 2 x part worn rear tyres (195/ 55/ 15)
• Replacement (S/ H) rear chrome bumper & trim
• Extensive photo record of all works
Body shell is rust free and only required 1 small repair to sill carried out by professional fabricator – I bought an entire replacement sill; both sills are straight and arches & rear pockets rust free with evidence of previous waxoil treatment.
The next area of improvement will be the paint, which is mostly original, but has had localised areas of respray of varying quality. The bonnet, front wings and an area on driver’s door are suffering from lacquer peel and there are a few very small spots of minor surface rust appearing, most noticeable at the leading edge of the sunroof panel.
Windscreen scuttle panel is straight, original and rust free.
Interior is in great condition overall – no rips or tears on seats. Dash top has is the usual cracking in 4 places. Factory fit Blaupunkt Stereo & speakers.
A great usable and appreciating classic that has been very reliable since recent recommissioning and runs & drives perfectly (completed 200+ miles last weekend without issue).
Car can be returned to standard ride height, if required and sold without MIM alloys (standard 14” bottletop alloys included – will require new tyres due to cracking).
