The Appeal
The E46 generation BMW 3 Series is widely regarded as one of the finest iterations of BMW's compact executive car, offering the perfect balance of handling, comfort, and reliability. There's a lot to love about this class of Beamer - but amongst our favourites is the silky-smooth 2.5L straight-six M54 engine, which delivers a perfect blend of performance and refinement.
This 2001 example stands out for its low mileage, comprehensive service history, and the recent investment it's been treated to. Classy, capable and eminently drivable, this is a modern classic that's well worth your attention.
This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.

✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.
