Good history file with invoices and receipts dating back to 2016
MOT valid until March 2027
In current ownership for over two years
The Appeal
The 3.0-litre inline-six is widely regarded as the engine to have in the E83 X3, delivering a refined blend of performance and everyday usability that the four-cylinder variants simply cannot match. This 2006 example is exactly that, has covered 81,000 miles and benefits from an extensive service history.
In current ownership for over two years, the car received a full B service and air conditioning re-gas in May 2025. It has been fitted with an upgraded display offering Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth, along with a replacement steering wheel. It's a great future classic at its core; a deeply drivable, eminently practical car.image.png1.7 MB

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.

✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ 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.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle.
