As Summer was coming up, and I was slightly bored by my Laguna I thought.....time to go back to the world of BMWs!

Just gave it a quick clay bar going over:

Got this for £5k. I know what I'd rather have out of this and a mint Sport. :mad:

It's a 1999 328i Cab, with Hardtop, 95k FSH (8 Main dealer stamps, 2 Specialist), MoT & Tax till Feb '09, this plate is coming off and being replaced by a 'T' private plate which was on from new. HPI clear too! :P

The M bits were all fitted from new, car cost almost £37k!

Two owners before me.

Love it.

That looks absolutely lovely. Bargain price and a hardtop.

Hope you get more than 2 days of a typical British summer to enjoy it!

Dave, i thought that was your personal plate, DEC , Daves executive chariot........
You will definately be the man about slough now, not sure if it's proper enough to get a datchet parking permit though ? :)

I'm moving to Old Windsor now PP, the Datchet property fell through.

Might leave this car at the parents house and use the Laguna until I move to Old Windsor.....don't like leaving this car in Slough - heheheh!

New plate will be T15 JMT ....... will I get £200 for that? Could get something stupid to replace it with!

Dave , you are right, a stock unmolested E36 cab with suspension but without a CD hanging from the mirror and a gold plated tissue box will definately stand out and attract the wrong sort of attention in slough! :)
Old windsor hey, how proper. Next thing you will be sharing a cucumber with an old queen ! :eek:

Wow that looks so pure. I think the E36 convertibles represent the best value for money. I would have it over the e46.
