1990 BMW 325I Cabriolet Auto

My 1990 Royal-Blau 325i Auto Convertible. I would argue this is one of the best colour combinations with the tan leather interior.

I bought this car in January 2021 and it has been kept in a garage during the winter months then used for trips down to the west country during spring and summer.

Current mileage 126k. Most of this mileage was done by original owner. It was then bought by a collector and spent time in Northern Ireland whereby it did very little mileage and subsequently brought back to mainland UK by another collector before I bought it whereby it had done 122K.

This is a very well specc'd car with original factory extras:

Front and rear spoilers
Dark Blue Soft top with hardtop prep
Rear Headrests
OBC 13button
M Sports suspension
M Sports leather steering wheel

A previous owner installed a chrome scorpion exhaust system. It was makes a fantastic noise without being too 'blowy' but is perhaps one of the few parts of the car that is not original.

My first action was to take it to the BMR Performance chaps (E30 experts) and have them take a more thorough lookover. Whilst the car was in good condition they did suggest a schedule of works that could be undertaken at my leisure. Below is what I have had done on the car since it been in my care by BMR Performance (documentation and receipts provided as evidence):

Replace cam belt
Replace auxiliary drive belts
Replace washer jets
Replace wipers
Replace EH gearbox switch
Replace OBC illumination
Replace all brake pipe and fuel hoses. Change brake fluid.
Replace (it was not the original) car stereo to Pioneer SPH-10BT. Can change LED lights on app to match interior lighting.
Replace bonnet insulation foam
Replace both diff output seals
Replace Front stabilizer link bars
Replace steering rack gaiter
Replace all 4 tyres with Uniroyal Rainsport 5 @ 122, 600 mileage in 2021. Wheels also re-aligned at this time.

BMR Performance also carried out Inspection 2 type service in June 2021.

Couple of areas to address for the prospective buyer:

The blower motor has recent stopped working. This will need to be replaced as it was serviced in 2021 so would now suggest the actual motor has failed.
Couple of the window switches need to be replaced. The windows themselves work as can easily change the switches over to the ones that work. Believe Brutus on this forum has some at a good price.

Overall have really enjoyed owning and using this car. The engine is fantastic and pulls very well indeed and always get admiring looks and the occasional petrol pump conversation.

I would now like someone else to enjoy this wonderful car otherwise it will spend most of its time back in the family garage.
Passed MOT end August/ September 2023
