Description
How many times have you heard " this car is mint" and it just isn't?
This BMW 318i CI Es, 5 speed Manual, 2ltr Petrol is the real deal.
Real life Unicorn!
Absolutely ORIGINAL gorgeous condition inside and out, with only 21k confirmed miles!!
Recent mot carried out with no advisories (check out this motors mot history on gov mot check site) incredible hence why I bought it.
Underside is remarkable, Garage Operative who carried out mot, remarked to me, how incredible the condition of the (underside was as good as the top) car has never had paint or any weldingWith only 2 previous owners, the first being a retired gentleman who bought it new from Sytner Nottingham (original bill of sale with car) owned the car up until Dec 2024, with minimal running (19k miles in 18 years) regardless of this the car was maintained meticulously and garaged always, his deteraiting health was reflective in the amount of miles between mot's and ultimately forced the sale.
Second owner, again an elderly gentleman purchased the car Dec 2024 for his wife who sadly passed away shortly after, this meant the car again had minimal use.
Second owner was a real car enthusiast who knew his cars and how to look after them, arranging for the car to be serviced, even although the car did not require it he instructed the garage to carry out service / oil & filter change etc. (Mteck Kirkcaldy, Independent BMW Specialist invoice with car)

As a BMW enthusiast and club member, I've had my share of Bimmers, this is by far the best I've ever had or seen, I will stick my neck out and say this is most likely the best Original example available/ left in the UK
So why am I selling the car?
I was diagnosed with terminal Cancer back in 2022 and glad to say I've proved the Doctors wrong by still being here.
This is a perfect car but turns out not for me at this time, I purchased the car back in March this year to scratch an itch but have found I'm using my mobility car more, better access and auto box but that's just me, if you buy a Bimmer it needs to be manual as all the enthusiasts will tell you.
