Description
This E46 is rather rare indeed. A genuinely quirky specification that somehow manages to be both effortlessly cool and incredibly usable.
Finished in Steel Blue Metallic over a sumptuous Natural Brown leather interior, this 320d Touring is a fantastic colour combination and very rare.
Add in wood trims, automatic gearbox, cruise control, glass sunroof and BMW Business radio, tan headlining and you have an E46 that feels anything but ordinary.
It is an SE specification, but with a twist…
Most notably, this car wears a set of Style 96 alloy wheels - an incredibly rare sight on an E46 and, in our opinion, one of the best details of the car. They have just been professionally powder-coat refurbished and are now wrapped in four nearly-new Continental tyres.
Underneath the quirky specification is a wonderfully sensible daily driver. The 320d engine offers the perfect blend of performance, economy, usability and reliability while the automatic gearbox makes this an exceptionally easy car to live with.
Just four previous owners from new.
The MOT is advisory-free until September 2027, and the car is supplied with two remote keys.
The paperwork file is particularly pleasing, with a number of invoices documenting previous maintenance and repairs, the original blue V5, book packs and manuals plus a full service history.
Recent expenditure includes:
* New crankshaft pulley
* Front brake pads
* Auxiliary belt
* Front arm rear bushes
* O/ S/ F track rod end
* Full comprehensive service
Opportunities like this are becoming few and far between. Sensibly priced, well maintained, high-specification E46s are getting harder to find - and finding one with this colour combination, specification and those wonderfully unusual Style 96s makes this a particularly interesting car.
Just 72k warranted miles from new.
