The car

BMW 325iSE, metalic grey
2 trip computers (outside temp, mpg, miles left, code etc)
rear bmw blind
bbs alloy wheels (2 new front tyres)
new exhaust back box
full service 1000 miles ago, bmw inspection cost £280
new front brake pads
new battery
even comes with glove box torch
The interior

grey cloth seats in an unbelievable immaculate condition including the drivers seat (usually worn on E30's). Centre arm rest at rear.
Black dash board also in A1 condition
M-tech steering wheel
note all the interior, dash, wheel are in excellent condition unmarked.
The spec

These cars come standard at 175bhp as stated in the handbook and without LSD.

Engine tuning done by sonic auto engineering using bosch and diagnostic equipment (cost £120 october 2004)
now running 195bhp in october 2004
however, february 2005 professionally installed ECU alpina B2 2.7 chip was installed in the ECU.
Now runs a super 205bhp (present)
note all of this is documented, the original E30 ECU chip will be suplied.
This car is very very fast, not your usual E30's, it leaves T5's, VR6's GTI's standing. 205bhp with LSD rear wheel drive not for the faint hearted!
this car is in original condition, a friend of mines bought it from oxford on 6/6/04 from a man who used to do trade plating to liverpool (hence high motorway milage).

at first we wanted a two door model to make a sport replica, but the engine on this is so sweet and the box we decided to tune this and as a result it now stands a whooping 205bhp (proven)

bad bits

sunroof inside pannel missing, electric tilt slide mechanism fine, doesnt leak water.
rear arches were rusty i have sorted them out using appropriate material and they just need spraying met grey.
back boot lid also needs spraying


NOTE: -

this car has no MOT or TAX (currently sorn)

i am so confident it will fly through its next MOT without any faults that if it makes around my asking price i will put 12 months free MOT.

this car was being using daily until end march, i have bought a 325 convertible reason being the sale.

no mechanical problems despite the milage (FSH) all old MOT's the engine is very good and sweet. gear box and LSD in excellent condition.

this car is in original condition except the engine tuning. after the tuning and chip we tested 0-60 at 6.37 secs and max speed was quicker got it to 140mph a friend of mines took the pic (see pic) and it still wanted to go more!!!

all this car needs is a little TLC, spray the back arches and boot lid, the rest of the body is in excellent condition no scratches dents or rust elsewhere. rust on the rear e30 arches is common.

the system

sony face off CD player large colour display 4X 52 watt cost me £160 october.

pioneer 500 watt 6x9's in the rear shelf (£90)

pioneer 120 watt front speakers (£75)

summary

325i se, twin computers, 4 x e/w, electric tilt slide sunroof, rear bmw SE blind, bmw torch, metallic paint work, bbs alloys with good tyres, excellent sound system, 205bhp tested and proof!, LSD, tuned and super chipped (original chip supplied), almost FSH around 14 BMW stamps.

this car only needs 2 arches and a boot lid respraying, i have spent a fortune tuning this and the result is excellent, this car really goes and can skin GTI's VR6's with ease.

fully documented bmw owner pack, all mot's receipts.

if it makes a reasonable amount i will mot for free.

also has a fully total closure scorpian CAT1 alarm, closes windows itself!

all pictures and recipets are here to prove the mods ive made money ive spent.
full scorpian remote alarm, excellent sound system.

and the price.

o dear. toooo cheap!!!!!!

And RWD. Not many people mod 4door e-30 bms so already your cars different then the rest. Its also quicker than mine mad plus it has an LSD which is something my car needs. Its a sleeper mate. If all goes well we will have to go the pod and have a race.

Nice to see you got a new car, looks quite good, but would like a person look at it to get a better idea.
