Oh wow great find. Im surprised they have bothered to put it on the forecourt. They did not even bother to give it a quick valet.

I wonder what they gave the previous owner for it as a part exchange. £500?

Tbh, I wouldn't pay more than that for it. Horrible colour, hush puppy grey non sport interior. The only things going for it are the steering wheel and climate control.
cheers,

harry

I am wondering if this belongs to BMW Car Club GB Member John Castle who also has E9 3.0 CSL and is in charge of the E9 Register of the Car Club and very knowledgable on all things E9

I remember reading in long term running reports he has E36 318iS Coupe

Whoever draws more than £1500 for that deserves a George Cross.

Considering you can pick up an M3 for 2 and half grand why in gods name would you spend almost 4 bags of sand on a 318 be it an IS or not

I am sure this IS is a lovely thing, or at least as lovely as a ascot green with grim grey E36 can be . Unlike the 2.5k M3 which will be a hound of biblical proportions :eek:


The IS is £1500 .

I dont mind the colour hugely, my mum would love it but the price is pretty wild. Does seem nice though. I guess you really do have a point, most E36 m3s in that price range will be an absolute fucikng shed with a history of limiter abuse. But yeah, bit steep i think.

Well a decent E36 M3 will .... I think be £5k plus and even then may need things doing

This has a Full BMW Approved Used Car Warranty which is I am assuming the bull of the cost and low mileage for the age and should have nothing wrong with it in theory .... Unlike most of the other cheap E36s around

Seeing as it also has a huge dent in the door I can't see this shifting anytime soon. Approved or not.

I bought one of these for my ex wife in 2003, the last of the runs of these were the t plate and it was a well sorted car and was much more fun to drive then the 2 year old e46 325ci I was running at the time.
