1982 BMW 323i E21

Highlights

  • Full history with three previous owners on record, including the current owner
  • 235,500 kilometres on the clock
  • Original clutch and shock absorbers in good condition
  • Always stored in a garage, which has helped maintain its good condition
The plus
The BMW e21 323i is a landmark car of the early 1980s, renowned for its distinctive front end and overall design. Those shark-nose lines became synonymous with the company's period in the 70s and 80s, and the 3 Series became a much-loved vehicle of that era.

The first of the 3 Series, the E21 was produced from June 1975 to December 1983. During this period, it sold no fewer than 1.4 million vehicles - an impressive figure, even today!

This particular example has been well preserved, unchanged since it was acquired in 1994. The car's history is well documented, with only three previous owners recorded, all of whom are known to the current owner. The car's mileage is unchanged at 235,500 kilometres. The mechanical aspects of the car, including the original clutch and shock absorbers, are in good condition - and the vehicle is ready to hit the road.
