Description
The baby M3
The sound and performance of this straight-six, 3 litre, naturally aspirated engine is a delight.
The Topaz Blue paintwork is immaculate and looks stunning. A real head-turner, regularly drawing comments. It's a modern classic that I've enjoyed displaying at car shows.
The roof is fully operational. I spent hours cleaning the hood, so the colour really pops.
The auto box is silky smooth - extremely reliable when serviced and looked after properly (intelligently adapts to driver's style).

Daily driver so milage will creep up
Lovingly restored to factory. Planned as a long-term investment. Very reluctant sale due to family employment changes.
