99.9% sure M3's are 4 seaters, I have been interested for years in the cab, however prices remain strong and they are expensive to run.
With that in mind you have the floor cracking issue to keep in mind, the famed VANOS issue and make sure the brakes and tyres are good as replacements are hugely expensive.
Also there was a main bearing recall in pre 03 models.
Also, as said beware of the SMG models which suffer with pump issues, and that's like £1500 to sort! The gearbox itself is the same.
