Yesterday i was offered a 318 auto e36 with m-tech kit.

Its a 1999(T) with 106k and half leather. Looks tidy,with a good rust free body and plenty of tax/test.........question is what price ranges am i looking at with this model?
I have no pics,as im just seeking a realistic min/max price range please?
Seller is not sure on prices either by the sound of it.
I dont know much about this model tbh,although im fairly sure these later ones had a 1.9 in them?
Not too sure on the auto either,as id prefer manual really.
What do we think? :?

TIA 8)

Wasn't aware they ever did an auto 1.9 M44 (318is) so I'm guessing it'll just be the boggo single cam 1.8l engine (M43?).

An auto 1.8 isn't exactly a desirable car so even in tip-top condition it isn't going to be worth any more than a grand.

Is it a touring? IIRC, iS = manual only as above, there was no standard 318i coupe, and the saloons only ran to '98! I presume you'd have mentioned if it was a convertible, so touring is my guess - or just a late registered 4-door. Aaaanyway, touring would fetch a bit more £££...

They are! Slush box doesn't suit the revvy nature of an M44.
