A rare Individual BMW E46 330Ci M-Sport Coupe in Messing Metallic with the Ecru Extended Leather interior a beautifully spec'd and now hard-to-find combination. I've owned the car since May 2025 and used it as my daily driver, having invested heavily in both mechanical reliability and cosmetic preservation.
I am selling as I want different after a year of ownership, as well as a change in my commute. It's been looked after exclusively by an independent BMW specialist, with full invoices to prove all work.
The car drives superbly and feels solid. It comes with a large folder of paperwork, including the original stamped BMW service book, old MOTs, and even all the original tax discs from new.
