My 318is

[cheffy]

Hi, well here she is, my 1 owner, 88,000 mile 318is.
I bought it last week, from its one and only owner last w/e. in Cheshire.
I seen it advertised on ebay couple weeks ago, and as it happens
I was driving down to Silverstone to the GP later that week,(from nr Edinburgh) and chap says he is just about 6 miles from M6, I thought mm well I'm passing by, quick detour, I was first to view, deal was done





I will be giving it a thorough detail most likely next w/e.
Wheels gona be hardest as they are pitted a wee bit.
Thanks for looking.

Nice Ride Mate , Really Nice .

PS : Replace the steering wheel , with the newer version M wheel .

[G-Bear]

Nice find. Good to see theres still winning examples out there if thats as clean as it looks. There's been a couple that have sprung up of late..

white isnt a colour i like but i really love the is in this colour, reminds me of the 2002 turbo. it would look awesome with some subtle m colour body stripes on the front , maybe IS in reverse!!! on the spoiler.

It is as nice as it looks, just needs a really good detail, which I shall do next w/e,
wash, decontaminate with an iron fallout remover, clay, cut, polish, wax, interior will get carpets shampood, leather cleaned, fed and conditioned, then ofcourse the engine bay to get a thorough clean - the wheels gona be the biggest pain as they are a wee bit pitted, and these bbs are not the easiest to clean at any time - about 24 hours should do it !

Sindako - where can I see new style M wheel ?

Povertyspec - white isnt my colour either btw ! but I do like it on this model.

Loks a similar spec inside to my iS Did you enjoy the GP?

[cheffy]

Yes really enjoyed the GP.

I did something similar. Went to old Trafford for a international game. Came back with a white 318is for £700 a good few years ago know.

Ps in about 2 miles away from you.

This look like a real nice clean car well done mate

[106e30]

Nice IS mate, I would keep the original steering wheel if I was you, Its the rack that needs changing not the the actual wheel, I find that mine is far too slow for the twisty stuff, many people switch with a z3's or an E36's.

Oh and get that tow bar off.

decent car

Nice 1 owner 88k mileage

[povertyspec]

is the interior original? . if theres a centre armrest in the rear it may not be. if you want a mtech check interior with no bolster wear , original sport rear seat, i have a very low mileage one stashed away from a white car, in case i ever bought a low mileage 318is.

congrats , looks mint, deffo get that towbar off tho

Hi all, 106e, I know re steering, it can take a wee bit to get used to, I have an E46 at the mo and what a difference on the steering, I think that is the rack to go for.

povertyspec, yes the interior is original, no armrest in the rear, I have the original sales receipt for all interior extras - electric sunroof, leather interior, rear head rests, onboard computer, and stereo, I think thats it, not got it here right now as I'm at work, but I'm sure it was around £1500 may have been more. rear seats hardly ever been sat on, infact its only really the drivers seat that has slight wear, there is however age related slight cracks but it is very slight.

page, yes tow bar will come off, I've harldy used the car and am waiting till I sell my E46, but I dare say its a sort of parking sensor - not so much for me, but anyone else that's not so
good at parking behind another car - lol

I have another post on here after I did a full detail, looks better than in these pics !
