2005 BMW E46 330cd Coupe (Automatic) – 190, 000 Miles – Excellent Mechanical Condition
Up for sale is my 2005 BMW 330cd owned by myself for the past 14 years. It has been a reliable, enjoyable car to own and drive, but the time has come to sell. Mechanically, the car is in fantastic shape for its age and mileage, delivering smooth power and a comfortable drive.
Vehicle Overview & Specifications:
Year: 2005
Model: BMW 3-Series 330cd (E46)
Engine: 3. 0L M57 Turbo Diesel
Transmission: Automatic
Mileage: 190, 000 miles
Mechanical Condition:
Engine & Drivetrain: Starts instantly, pulls strongly, and runs smoothly. The engine is mechanically sound and remarkably tight—it does not consume or burn any oil between service intervals.
Maintenance History: Meticulously cared for with regular servicing every 10, 000 miles. Swirl flaps deleted, cat deleted and remapped for more economy & a bit more power .
Gearbox & Brakes: Gearbox shifts smoothly through all gears, delivering seamless power down to the road. Brakes are sharp and responsive.
Bodywork & Interior:
Overall, the body does need a bit of TLC (see pics). However, the interior has worn surprisingly well for a 21-year-old vehicle.
Wheel Arches & Bodywork: There is a known rust bubble on one of the wheel arches, along with a few small rust spots typical for an E46 of this era. The drivers side front wing has been been in the sun for too long and the clear coat has started to peal.
This is an ideal driver's car or effortless daily commuter for anyone seeking the desirable 3. 0L M57 powertrain in an E46 coupe. It needs a little cosmetic attention on the bodywork, but mechanically it is ready to drive away and continue covering long miles reliably.
- Car comes with 2x keys
- MOT due in October 2026
- Bright white HID dipped headlight conversation
- JVC head unit installed for Bluetooth and hands free use
- Lots of receipts!
