The E46 is amongst the best-balanced of the German Marque's 3-series, and enthusiasts are still picking them up in droves for their sheer drivability. Practical, capable, agile and economic - it's a real winner's package, and when you factor in the age-old appeal of a convertible and the desirable M Sport pack, this could well be the top of the podium.
This 2006 example has covered only 57,770 miles, and spent much of its life in the same family's ownership. Now, it comes to market with plenty of time on its MOT and having been recently serviced. A deeply desirable spec, upset-free history and a history of dry storage. Quite a prospect!
The latest MOT notes: "Oil leak from engine, but not excessive; also slight tyre damage"
However, the vendor tells us there is no oil visible on garage floor and that they cannot detect any tyre damage
