Description
I have owned and daily-driven this car since February 2021 with plans of it being a forever purchase, and in my tenure, I have spared no expense on maintenance and replacement parts to ensure the car runs smoothly and reliably, making this a very reluctant sale. Unfortunately, my circumstances have changed and I am pained to sell the car. To preserve the state of the car it has never been drifted in my ownership. Any maintenance parts have been replaced with OEM BMW parts and have been replaced professionally, predominantly by ex-BMW mechanics turned specialists with extensive knowledge of the E36/X platform.
I have the original service book with a plethora of supporting documents and service stubs. Part service history, full in my ownership.
There are a few age-related marks on the car, as to be expected of a 30-year-old car, but the photos are testament to how well it cleans up.
Key features and maintenance notes include:
Genuine OEM SE body kit with sport front bumper.
Genuine Bilstein B12 coilover suspension kit paired with Eibach pro springs.
Scorpion cat-back exhaust system. Fully MOT-ready and road legal. Original exhaust system still owned and will be provided with the sale.
Aftermarket GT bootlid and spoiler colour-matched in Montreal Blue.
Front and rear fog lights.
Triangle/first aid kit.
BMW Toolbox.
Auto-dimming interior rear-view mirror
Sports leather steering wheel.
Adjustable front headlights.
Adjustable dashboard back lighting.
Pioneer Bluetooth head unit.
Full-size spare wheel, all wheels have good tread
Rocker cover gasket along with brake system overhaul at 123k.
Clutch replaced at 127k.
Vanos unit replacement and rebuild at 135k.
Camshaft position sensor replaced at 139k.
Thermostat and top hose replaced at 141k.
Full bleed of cooling system and coolant replaced with BMW blue at 141k.
Handbrake lever replaced at 144k
Suspension unit overhaul with Bilstein kit, track rod ends, trailing arm bushings, and front ball joints, plus alignment at 150k.
Full weld under battery compartment tray at 156k.
Full weld of near and offside door sil sections, and rear suspension attachments at 158k.
Honest problem points are:
Headliner requires retrimming.
Dashboard odometer and side-light backlights are out.
Slight bubbling under rear arches. I am assured this is entirely cosmetic. I have recently had the undercarriage welded where required and sealed as noted.
Airbox clip on one side has broken off.
