Absolutely everything is working as it should and it drives flawlessly, along with the silky smooth gearbox.

There is no rust in wheel arches or jacking points - just a small spot on roof hatch.

Completely clean engine bay, no leaks and strut brace.

The manual box is silky smooth and faultless.

Recent work: Roof serviced (cost £600+VAT), new clutch, New bushes, new shocks, new suspension, new springs, new Battery, clean M3 Nappa leather interior and door cards, Chrome dials, the list goes on an on.

I have owned this car for over 12 years, (mostly garaged) and as an E36 enthusiast from my early 20s, I fell in love with this colour combination and have cherished this since without any cap on costs. This car has not been raced or abused. I have not cut back on a single repair or maintenance with all OEM parts and a garage that is a BMW specialist (receipts for all works and services totalling over five figures. The Alpine sound system alone was over £2k).

I am very sad to let this go (and that's an understatement). The new owner will be very lucky indeed to acquire this rare and fast appreciating future classic in the most desired manual, M52 1999 model - last ones off the production line.

I also have a set of brand new, refurbished Staggered, Diamond cut, 17 inch M3 Sunflower Alloys with unworn brand new tyres for sale too and willing to sell separately. Only serious buyers need apply as priced to sell (new baby, new car and ULEZ forces sale - I need the space!).

THANK YOU FOR READING AND WATCHING.

Private Plate on vehicle is now removed. VRN is: T465 JCF.

The bodywork is exceptional apart from one ding and a bit of rust on roof hatch (repairable).

This car gets so much attention and admiration wherever it goes day and at night. The shimmer from the diamond cut alloys is magical at any light level. The sound from the exhaust is like a V8 and I have never seen another E36 in this condition, anywhere.
