Highlights
- High SE specification
- Incredibly low mileage
- Excellent condition throughout
- Performs brilliantly, with MOT until June 2023
The Appeal
Produced between 1990 and 2000, the E36 is perhaps one of BMW’s most popular retro platforms. In true BMW fashion, the E36 would of course be available across a wide range of trim levels, body styles, and engine configurations, including the 325 TDS saloon.
First offered in 1995, the TDS would feature a turbocharged diesel straight six, capable of delivering buckets of torque, plenty of comforts, and respectable fuel economy. Being one of the even rarer “SE” models, this 325 TDS also boasts an additional range of improvements, including a full leather interior, power windows, an electric sunroof, and more.
Impressively, this BMW has only covered an astonishingly low amount of miles over the years and now presents itself in excellent condition both inside and out. It’s a vehicle that would no doubt make a rare, yet capable daily driver, but would also serve as a superb low-mileage collection piece.
