The Appeal
Here it is, one of the last built of a truly brilliant saloon: the E46. It is also the rare and highly regarded 3L turbodiesel, and since it was built after 2003, it has the more powerful 205bhp motor. These cars offer a near-perfect, real-world blend of economy and performance.
In factory standard condition and finished in smart Orient Blue metallic with black Montana leather, it wears its 20 years very lightly. It sports a low mileage for the year and comes with full service history to 2024.
The car has had just four former keepers in its life and will be sold with a fresh 12-month MOT.
