The Appeal
BMW’s E36 is a gem that shines amongst a range of cars that already contains many great models. The M3, of course, is the go-to for enthusiasts, but proper aficionados rate the M50-engined 325i very highly. And with good reason - it’s quick, nimble and properly engaging with real-world performance.
This 325i has taken the E36’s factory template and made it considerably better Modifications to the suspension, chassis and brakes have all improved a car that was already very good indeed. Choice additions like front and rear diffusers and a big rear spoiler, plus OZ Racing alloys, deliver aesthetics to match the go. Inside there are Sparco buckets and a roll cage.
This car is properly set up for track or road use. With Spanish ITV to October 2025 it is ready to enjoy.
