Have had it since 1992 and maintained it myself.

I feel a little out of place here with my bog standard 318i. I don't know if it's very rare now or if it's gaining value?

Very nice car. I've not seen that colour looking so good for a long time. Do you have a back story about the car?

The colour is Atlantis blue. I bought the car when it was 4years old,it was owned by a financial company and had done 67k. Was using it daily up until a few years ago, it has done 182k but I don't use it much now.
I have replaced the cam and followers,fuel tank and the clutch that's apart from the other minor parts like water pump,rad,brakes etc.
It has been so reliable and if I could buy a new one now I would!!

The condition is a credit to your long term careful ownership - thanks for the details.
