Says £7,995 at the bottom of the ad... But 8k for a bruvved up Auto Convertible is slightly over priced...
I'd always be wary of any car thats just had a full 'Professional' respray because in a few months, the rot could start festering back up
=========
Just noticed its a 'Motorsport', which always get a bit more but fook knows why

I just think it'd work well in my car.
I need to look for a set of seats actually soon I think.
I'm not a great fan of that car over all to be honest but I'd certainly take some bits from it if I could.

It's an auto, everyone knows that all motorsport cars are slushbox autos...

That interior is scrap.
It was orinally a silver grey early Motorsport convertible interior that has bee dyed red an black.
Also, the front headrests are e36.
It could be a motorsport cab but if it is then it was originally Macau blue or Nagaro silver being a G reg.
The seller is dreaming at £7995!

got to agree the interior just looks cheap IMO, the number plates are of the illegal fake german variety also

That car is a bit of a lesson in how to take a rare E30 variant and "customise" it until it's no longer special.

I think the interior is just badly photographed...E46 M3s with Imola Red interior are amazing in the flesh but look utterly horrific in pictures. Red interiors are rare and do work so well on loads of cars though.
In fact as
Matt has shown, it is very hard to take pics of a red interior to show the colour properly (and his are a dark red).

David Bailey could not make them door cards look anything more than bodged up council scrap. On a positive note, they give a potential victim a heads up on what the rest of the car is undoubtably like

True, the two-tone door cars are...different.

Red interiors are generally stunning but that is a lash up of he highest order and is blatantly obvious from the pics!
