Shamelessly copied from my pistonheads advert;

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For sale is my 1998 323i manual m sport convertible, it comes with a BMW colour coded hardtop that when fitted has fully working interior lights and heated rear window, perfect for the winter! With the roof off it is literally the perfect car for the summer!

It's done just a tad over 120,000 miles, but by looking at it you wouldn't know! It's a very clean car, with the only rust being on the boot lid and on the small panel underneath the boot, both pieces are only the size of a 5p and not really noticeable. If you HPI this car it may come back to a 4 door but this is because it had a private plate on it untill recently, I have all the paperwork to prove it's not dodgy! Any inspection welcome.

The car has full grey/cream leather interior (the colour of the front two seats has gone a bit iffy, I believe they have been dyed in the past, i'm sure they would respond very well to a re-dye) there is no rips, tears or wear to any of the bolsters. They are also the sport seats so are more bucket-ey and have the pull out bit by your thighs. It has dual zone climate control, BMW business RDS stereo with factory fit 6 CD multi changer in the boot, 7 button OBC, switchable traction control, electric mirrors, fully electric roof with no damage and works 100%, also doesn't leak! Brand new 16" alloy wheel spare with tyre, full tool kit with torch and warning triangle, jack etc. It also has a toad alarm with 2 working fobs and 2 working bmw keys.

The car is lowered on Eibach pro sport coilovers (I still have the standard Sachs sport suspension if wanted), not your normal ebay crap jobbies, it rides very very well, no worse than the standard car, but is still stiff enough to maintain the ride height it's at without crashing about or scrubbing. It's sitting on 18" alpina style wheels, they are kerbed but still look very presentable. They are wearing 225-40-18 goodyear excellence all round, all tyres are like new. It also has two green lights still remaining on the dash service indicator.

For it's last MOT it had two front brake callipers, discs and pads and a few other small bits. It has since had a replacement radiator and full coolant change, N-S-F lower arm and propshaft U-J. The MOT is due in September this year and it has around 3 months tax remaining. I am a car mechanic and this car has been maintained well, there is no reason why it would not pass it's MOT in a few months time, it really is in perfect mechanical order.

It has CCFL angel eyes fitted and LED sidelight bulbs to match the colour.

A few things that are worth mentioning, I would not like somebody to come view the car and be dissapointed;

The two front windows some times (when using one touch to go up) stop and you have to put them up bit by bit, i've been told this is a common 3 series problem and is usually something to do with the microswitch in the door striker?

The air blowers have a mind of their own some times, usually working fine but some times not blowing, this is to do with the blower motor resistor pack and can be had off ebay cheaply for a new one and they're not too difficult to replace.


There are a few dark pixels in the radio illumination, can still be read fine.

There are a few stonechips on the front which is to be expected with a car this age, but aren't that bad at all!

Any questions don't hesitate to contact me, this is an honest sale, I would be interested in a part ex if it's something interesting!

I can put the standard suspension back on and sell it for less if that's what the buyer wants by the way.
