Vehicle Details
ONLY 87,000 MILES
RARE MANUAL - M SPORT
LOVELY SPEC / FULL SERVICE HISTORY
Introduction
Here we have an excellent example of the BMW E36 3 Series 328 Touring Manual, with M Sport options. This September 1997 car has only had 3 former keepers, it looks stunning and drives very well, has covered only 87,000 Miles. Its been very well maintained and looked after, all solid arches etc, a rare find now in this condition and mileage, especially being a manual.
BMW never made an official M Sport touring, so you have to check the factory options and this one has the M Sport factory option, suspension etc.
Finished in Artic Silver with a Black leather interior, AC Schnitzer style alloys, a very good looking example.

Bodywork / Interior / Wheels etc
Finished in Artic Silver metallic. The bodywork and paintwork are in excellent condition. A lovely deep all over shine, no noticable dings or dents, all solid wheel arches and tailgate and front wings (all commons rust sports on these)
The interior is finished in Black leather. Again a very well cared for interior all in excellent, original condition. Look in the boot, rear luggage cover all correct, engine bay presents very well.
The alloys fitted on this car are the AC Schnitzer style alloys with polished rims, All in lovely condition.
Engine / Gearbox
Featuring the 2.8 straight six M52 engine. It runs and performs perfectly, lovely and quiet from cold. Just as you would expect for such a well serviced car. The 5 speed gearbox feels nice and precise, the clutch feels just right.
History
This BMW benefits from low owners and a full service history. We have all the original manuals in their original BMW folder, a fully stamped original service book, a folder containing all the old MOT’s, both keys etc.
Summary
A rare find now, a low mileage and very solid 328 Manual Touring. The E36 is certainly the model on the up at the moment, prices are likely to rise as the earlier E30 becomes more expensive. This car should make a safe investment going forward. A great looking and very fun car for less than £5000.
It will come with a YEARS MOT, is HPI clear including mileage verification.
