Description
For sale is my BMW E46 325i Touring Auto, a well-sorted example with extensive recent maintenance and upgrades. If you’re looking for an E46 Touring that has had all the major weak points addressed, this is the one.
I've spent a lot of time and money ensuring it runs reliably and smoothly, with major work on the engine, cooling system, suspension, and drivetrain. Reason for selling is, I am moving to Cornwall and will be switching to an economical daily beater for the foreseeable.
The car drives great, pulls well and benefits from a refreshed suspension setup, making it a solid daily driver or a great base for an enthusiast build.
