i'm no expert but there is no black stripe in the bumpers to start, but a sad end, steelies and no engine by the looks of it.
Still has a fair value like it is though!

To my unpractised and somewhat myopic eye, the bodywork looks fairly mint (apart from the mould etc)
If it ain't broke, fix it till it is

It's tidy enough. That'd make a luvvly re-shell shell for someone who chucks their M3 into a wall.

It looks tidy as the oxidisation hasn't been disturbed. Underneath it'll be a festering mass of ripe shite.

you would think the arches would show signs of rust after 12 years being stood unless it's a fibreglass kit ?

Aparently it was stolen/recovered, would explain all the missing parts. Said to be rust free (find that slightly hard to believe) but unfortunately the owner has no intention of selling it.
