• Only 17,049 miles from new

 • Two owners from new

 • Spectacular condition throughout

You will do well to find another E36 328i Convertible in the same spectacular condition as this particular example. 

Its remarkably low mileage, stunning condition and almost total originality make it a rare and unique proposition on the used classic car market.

While this generation of 3 Series is becoming ever-more collectable, this modern classic BMW runs and drives perfectly, meaning whether you want to store it away to look at or enjoy the very best of what the Germans had to offer in the 1990s, this is the car for you.

 • UK-spec car supplied new to Jersey in 1997

 • Covered only 12,000 miles until 2010, when it was acquired by the current owner

 • Seller is happy to supply the car with a fresh MOT

 • 2 keys

 • Oil changes have been completed every other year

 • All original documentation such as owner’s manual and stamped service book are present

 • Supplied with original pre-delivery inspection sheet from when the car was new

 • Invoices for replacement of the radiator, heater resistor and electric roof module

Buyers must note that this car is not currently registered with the DVLA in Great Britain. 

However, the new owner will be supplied with everything they need to register the car, at which point they will become the first UK owner:

 • Export certificate from Jersey is present

 • HMRC clearance receipt confirms VAT has been paid

 • Certificate of conformity from BMW is present

 • Light grey leather interior in spectacular condition

 • Every piece of switchgear functions as it should

 • No faults or damage to note

Overall, the inside of this 328i can be described as immaculate.

The interior is totally original with the exception of the radio, where a JVC stereo has replaced the original Sony unit. 

The rest of the switchgear such as air con, lights, wipers and heating controls all function correctly. Even the original BMW-branded torch is present in the glovebox, and is also said to be in working order, although its visual condition has degraded over the years.

Because of its low mileage, the seats (both front and rear), carpets, steering wheel and gear lever are in outstanding order. Being kept in a garage for its entire life when not in use means the plastic surfaces on the centre console and dashboard are totally unblemished.

Inside the boot you’ll find very clean carpeting as well as the rubber luggage straps, tool kit, warning triangle and plastic-wrapped BMW first aid kit that were originally supplied with the car.

 • Beautifully finished in BMW special order metallic Montreal Blue

 • Absolutely stunning with only a few minor blemishes (photographed)

 • Looks every bit of the incredibly low mileage example that it is

 • Kept in a garage its entire life when not in use

This 328i is in remarkable condition, and not just for a vehicle of 1997. 

The seller describes it as “not quite concours, but certainly not very far off”, and its stunning bodywork very obviously demonstrates how sparingly it has been used as how well it has been looked after over the years.

The metallic paintwork is shiny and bright, and the alloys are in pristine condition despite never having been refurbished. All glass fixtures and lights are in virtually as-new condition, as are the chrome grille and exterior plastics. To the seller’s knowledge it has never had any body or paintwork in its 25-year lifespan.

The fully electric roof is in excellent order visually and works perfectly thanks to the module that controls the operation having been recently replaced. 

There are no dents or significant damage anywhere on the vehicle, with the exception of a tiny blemish on the passenger side rear wing, and two small scrapes, one on the front bumper and one on the rear.

 • Drives fantastically well with no known mechanical faults

 • Underside is incredibly clean

 • Four brand-new Goodyear tyres

 • Recent new battery

This 328i drives wonderfully, with the lovely six-cylinder engine starting, idling and accelerating exactly as it would have done back when it rolled out the factory in 1997. 

The auto gearbox is smooth with no untoward noises, changing gear up and down as it should. Suspension and brakes are also in good order, contributing to excellent handling out on the road.

The owner informs that there are no known faults with this car, and no immediate work that requires doing. 

It has covered less than 1,000 miles since its last service and the new battery and tyres means it is ready to be enjoyed.

This is an amazing top-of-the-range modern classic BMW in remarkably good condition. 

Having been tremendously well cared for and having covered just over 17,000 miles from new, the buyer will not be disappointed with what is a truly unique and outstanding car.
