Description
Rare BMW 318is saloon.
Finished in a rare and stylish Fjord Grey
Sport interior is finished in grey cloth with black leather and rear head rests have been retro fitted
Car is totally original.
This is possibly the lowest mileage example of an E36 318is available in the UK today. Current mileage is less that 46 000 miles and can be certified by the MOT history. There is a partial service history available that includes service book stamped by supplying dealership.
This 318is drives without fault, as you would hope of a BMW with such a low mileage. Performance is brisk and it really is a lovely car to drive. The engine and drivetrain are about as good as it gets and is ready to be enjoyed by the new owner. A full service. has been completed and mechanically this car wants for nothing.
The interior condition is excellent and there are no signs of wear to the seats or carpet. The headlining remains in place with no signs of sagging. This is possibly one of the very best original E36 interiors currently available. The factory radio remains and is. in excellent working order.
The bodywork remains in very good condition throughout and there is no laquer peel evident. All 4. wheel arches remain free from rust. There are 2 very small bits of cosmetic rust evident as can be seen in the photos. I have left these to be dealt with by the new owner, rather than seek to hide them. The car has never been welded and remains structurally sound.
Any inspection is welcome and given that examples of E30 318is are now exceeding £20K it would seem E36 values are also increasing month on month. There is a similarly low mileage example in mainland Europe for 12. 5K Euros.
I am happy to discuss a potential sale and invite serious offers. The first time you drive this example of the 318is saloon you will understand what makes them so popular and why they were the basis of the touring cars of the era. This example drives beautifully and you simply will not find another is such terrific unrestored condition.
Check MOT history and it confirms just how little use this car has had in recent years and how it shows zero structural corrosion. There are 2 minor cosmetics that can easily be sorted and will leave one of the best examples available. This presents a blue chip investment with very few affordable classic BMW's left. The E30 318is are now in the mid twenty thousands and with the scarcity of the 318is saloon, this presents as an excellent opportunity.
