Default BMW M3 Evolution Convertible 1997/P Estoril Blue £7500





1997 BMW M3 Evolution Convertible

3.2 litre Straight 6 engine, 6 speed manual, 321bhp
Estoril Blue with grey leather

88000 miles, FSH to 72663 miles, last serviced by previous owner, and then serviced by Eden Motors (BMW Specialist)at 86k at a cost of £280
BMW Alarm and Tracker
Digital Dual zone climate control
Driver and passenger air bags
JVC CD player, Sony speakers
Electric adjustable seats
Central locking, power steering, ABS
Electric windows and hood.
Electric mirrors, Anti dazzle rear view mirror
Onboard 11 function computer (MPG etc)
12 Months MOT (8th June 2008)
Air con has a new condensor and has been regassed, works a treat

Bad points:

Got nothing to hide here - it's a 10 yr old car, so there was bound to be something! The grey leather interior is tidy (not ripped, burnt), but it has been painted / treated with some kind of silver stuff which I'd guess was to cover discolouration of the seats. It's been poorly applied, and ideally the car needs a retrim or new seats out of a dead car. I wasn't worried about it hence not doing anything about it - it's not as bad as it sounds, will try to get a pic of the inside tomorrow.

I'm after £7500 ono as it is - any questions just ask

Tyres are Pirelli P Zero Rosso 225/45/17 on the front and Kumho Ecsta 245/45/17 on the rear. They have loads of life in them (4/5 mm or more)

Wheels are mint - slight edge kerbing to the rear left one, but other than that they shine and sparkle!

Upski - no bidders yet

It's only at the £6k starting price - can't believe that means most people don't reckon it's worth that!

M3's are are excellent cars, can be hard to sell though,mine had full main dealer hist from day one, 1st person who viewed bought it but i did'nt have much interest, everytime i have sold a Cossie i've had loads of calls on it. Would'nt mind another M3 as the wife can drive it,she wo'nt even go in the Cossie, need to sell the Cossie 1st though as too many cars.

Goodluck with the sale, its got to be worth 6k all day long.

Simon.

Cheers Gary - I'm sure it's well worth the £7500 I'm asking, just got to hold out for the right buyer.
