Description
For sale is my BMW 330d E46 LCI with the M57 engine and the 6 speed manual gearbox. It is a nice spec including: auto lights, auto wipers, full leather seats, cruise control, headlight washers, parking sensors, auto dimming mirror, power folding mirrors, sky bag and a rear privacy blind!
I have owned this car for the past 3 years. It has spent most of its life commuting to Woking on the M40 and M25 averaging around 50 mpg.
I have been everywhere with it, from John O' Groats to Lands end, and the occasional euro trip to France, Belgium and Germany.
It is currently sitting on around 166k miles but it might increase slightly.
In terms of reliability, I have not had any issues, other than a leaky radiator that has since then been replaced.
In terms of service history, the service booklet was fully stamped until 2022. After that, my friend bought the car, had it for a year and serviced it during his ownership.
In July 2023, I purchased it from him and serviced it every 10k miles regardless of time.
It has got Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres on the front and Michelin Primacy at the back.
In terms of work done on the car:
- Swirl Flaps deleted with proof
- New Radiator (Nissens) and expansion tank fitted in 2024
- EGR valve in 2024
- All shocks and springs were replaced in the past 4 years
- All brake discs, pads and callipers have been replaced.
- New front wings replaced: Major laquer peel on the RHS.
- Rear wheel bearings in 2025
-Front lower control arms both in 2023
-Diesel filter, front top mounts, ARB bushes in 2026
- Wheels refurbished last year (kerbed 1 of them already..
Bad bits:
- Common rust on rear arches with the rear right one being the worse. It passes MOT regardless.
- Rust spot under the bootlid
- Front right wing laquer peeling but not rusty as it is a new one.
- Boot latch switch does not work, but the key does open it.
- It does smoke a tiny bit on start up when cold, but clears after 2 seconds or so.
- Dust shields on the front are rattling a bit, will try to sort this out before selling.
Reason for selling is, I just bought another car and unfortunately, I cannot keep them all
Feel free to ask any questions and I will be happy to help!
