2006 BMW E46 330Ci Cabriolet M Sport Auto

Highlights

  • In current ownership since 2012
  • Valid MOT until September 2024
  • Serviced in 2022 with over £1,000 spent
  • 3.0L I6 powerplant with automatic transmission
  • Clean, nicely kept example 

The Appeal

The E46 M was an executive-level convertible with the best of them. Often declared as one of the best of BMW’s repertoire, the high-revving M54 was every bit as performance-driven as the car was understated and sophisticated. Nearly two decades on, it’s got that perfect balance of modernity with traditional, tactile, engaged driving - creating a stylish but eminently drivable car.
This example is a great ambassador for the model, with only two previous owners, a recent service under its belt and all of that millennial charm perfectly intact. We've no doubt it'll prove to be a tantalising modern classic for any enthusiast.
