1993 BMW 3 Series E36 325i

An early E36 325i SE Coupe with the 5-speed automatic plus overdrive, featuring a factory fitted limited slip differential, upgraded to the full Alpina B2. 5 cosmetic kit.

Powering this E36 is the bullet proof vanos-M50B25TU engine, this car does not have the Alpina power kit, but it's normal standard factory engine.

The 2. 5 engine fitted made the 325i the most powerful E36 model between 1991 - 1993, before the 3. 0 M3 took the crown after its launch in 1994.

Sytner, who are the only Alpina UK importer, wanted to offer an even more powerful version to offer UK customers before the M3 launched. These modifications included a slight power increase from the standard 190hp, to about 215hp.
Only about 200 325i models ever received these upgrades, only ever for the UK market, making it one of the rarest Alpina models in the world.

The car comes with 2 keys, it's full book pack, and a folder full of history and receipts. The receipts are amazing, the new owner should feel serious piece of mind -
It has been in my ownership since 2020, and has undergone significant recommissioning with over £20, 000 spent in that time with Vines BMW of Redhill, and Munich Legends.

It comes with the original BMW brochure, price list, special equipment brochure, and the rare Alpina brochure of its time, as well as paperwork going back to 2004.

It has been an incredible car to own, a real privilege being able to give it a second chance at life.
It's been as far up as the top of Scotland, and you know what, that automatic is surprisingly easy to manipulate and have fun with.

But when you just want to cruise on a road trip, simply leave it in drive, and set the cruise control to take you along mile after mile.
