1990 Genuine BMW E30 318is For Sale
I have owned this car for the past 3 years, in which time it was used and cherished by my step son. It is in very nice condition throughout although it has been used regularly, so has a few stone chips and age related marks. Overall though, it is a very nice car that is in very good condition.
The bodywork is very good and I would put it at around an 8/ 10. There is no rust or rot in the floor or chassis and the car had any rust professionally repaired a couple of years ago. Due to being used regularly, there are a few stone chips and age related marks, but overall this is a very tidy looking car that cleans up really well. There is certainly nothing needing urgent attention and all the usual E30 rust traps (battery tray, scuttle panel etc) all remain solid and rust free.
The original interior, including sports Recaro type seats and black headlining, are all in very good condition. The dash has a couple of usual E30 cracks but these could easily be repaired or the dash replaced. There is no damage anywhere and even the drivers seat bolster remains in great condition. The OE radio/ cassette remains but the electric aerial needs replacing. The carpet is in very good condition, the sunroof works and there is absolutely no damp or water ingress.
Mechanically everything is as you would expect. The only non original thing is that the springs are -35mm and look much nicer. The engine runs sweetly and loves to be revved. The gearbox is excellent but the diff isn't the quietest. It in no way needs attention but I would prefer to be 100% honest. I had planned to fit an LSD but the diff has never been a problem so it seemed pointless changing it. There is nothing that needs attention and a new clutch and brake pads/ discs were fitted about 18 months ago. The OE BBS alloys all have their centre caps and all tyres have plenty of tread.
This is a very reliable car and regularly drove between London and Cornwall without any issues. A new MOT will be put on for the new owner.
This is a great example of a 2 door E30 and very well priced. There are examples at twice the asking price but they are certainly not twice the car! If you want an E30 to use and enjoy, without having to embark on an expensive restoration, this is an ideal prospect. I am confident that the first person to view will buy.
* If you do an online MOT History check using reg' MIB1351 you can get mileage and all past MOT details that will confirm just what a good, solid example this car is*
Mileage is about 190k but don't let this put you off, as the cars condition and mechanicals remain in excellent order. It runs and drives without any issues and I would happily jump in and drive to Scotland if I needed to. This is a really good car and is in much better condition than many so called ''low mileage'' examples. I am in no desperate need to sell though, so will not accept silly offers. It will simply stay in the garage.
