1984 BMW E30 316 saloon For Sale

Here we have for sale my 1984 BMW 316 saloon, I originally bought this car with the intention of doing a full restoration however circumstances have changed and I am unfortunately going to have to move it on.

It is a 2 owner car with just over 63k miles, having owned a few of these cars over the years and spent time around others I can honestly say this is one of the nicest most original examples I have ever seen, it is a true survivor from what I can see has never had any restoration work done to it.

Finished in Schwarz black (arguably the best color for an E30) with a pearl cloth interior and bronze tinted glass the whole car is a homage to the build quality and tasteful design of BMW in the 1980’s. The car benefits from a 5 speed manual gearbox, pushed along by the chirpy little M10 4 cylinder carbureted lump.

Overall condition of the car is excellent, the bodywork is very straight for its age with only a few minor dents and scratches which I will go into detail on later, most importantly the underside of the car is rock solid, it has never had a patch of welding, nor does it need any, it has clearly been garaged it’s entire life and only driven on dry days by the looks of things, I have included some photos of the sills and underside as proof of this.

The car also still has an almost full original toolkit, jack, wheel brace and spare wheel which appears to have never been used. As well as the original blaupunkt Madrid radio and speakers which all still work as they should.

Now on to the bad points of which there are only a few, the drivers side wing has two small dents on the outer corner, local dent man said they can be pulled out. The passenger side wing has also had a knock which has folded the bottom of the wheel arch slightly, again after speaking to local body shop they quoted around £80 to repair and repaint. The rear seat also has a rip in the fabric, and the drivers side front seat is also slightly threadbare (both pictured) finally, the dash has one crack in it which is very common on these cars but still worth highlighting. It’s worth noting that this car also has a stack of history and receipts, the majority of which are from BMW main dealer dating all the way back to the 80’s, this also includes the original sales invoice from sundridge park dating 30th April 1984.

Thank you for taking the time to read this ad, I have tried to be as honest as possible but if you have any questions please get in touch.
It’s no secret that these cars are going up in value all the time and fully original examples like this are getting hard to come by, this car would be perfect for someone looking for a light restoration project that could land them a truly perfect e30 that also won’t cost a fortune to restore. Alternatively you could stick a set of coilovers on this and a set of polished BBS’s and have one of the nicest e30 show cars in the country.

MOT until feb 2022
