BMW E30 325i CONVERTIBLE 5 SPEED MANUAL
1987 7 OWNERS 65000 MILES WARRANTED
£17995
This is my own personal car and one of many E30 325i that I have had the pleasure of owning.
This sought after manual convertible was registered in 1987 and is in fantastic condition having much spent on it over the past 2 years.
The car had a full service last year including the cam belt and water pump as well as having a new fabric roof and the front seats re upholstered with the original hounds tooth pattern.
The BBS alloy wheels have been refurbished and new tyres fitted all round.
This car has a full service history with 20 service stamps and many invoices in its extensive folder. It also comes with a fresh MOT to July 2025 with no advisories.

Engine and Transmission
The straight six 2494cc engine produces 168 BHP and is the famed M20 design that served BMW so well in so many of its models. Fuelled by Bosch Motronic injection the engine is very smooth and in a relatively light car produces strong performance with a top speed when new of 130 MPH and a 0-60 MPH of 8. 4 seconds.
The 5 speed manual gearbox is smooth and precise and the ABS brakes are powerful and effective and the car performs very well with no known faults.
Exterior
The black paintwork is in very good order with the car having been re painted by the previous owner. The chrome bumpers are also in fine condition along with the window and door surrounds.
The car benefits from having had a new folding roof last year.
The 15” BBS alloys have been refurbished and come with brand new tyres
Interior
The front seats and rear seat base have new hounds tooth natural colour fabric which I sourced from Holland and the seat backs and door cards are in good condition.
The electric windows, heating and ventilation and all controls work as they should.
