Today parked outside work was a violet[purple colour] e46 hartge 4 door looked real nice.I seen the chap get out but missed him when he came back as i wanted to have a word.
I gave the car a good going over and took some pics on my phone as its the first hartge i have ever seen.
It had twin tail pipes all the badges steering wheels pedels gear knob handbrake and a plaque on the dash.
Wheels where standard bmw.I was telling everybody at work that they where looking at a real special BM,does anybody know the spec on hartge or the bhp so that i can tell all the non believers at work. :cool:

That looks like a regular E46 to me rather than an M3.

Looks like a 330 Club Sport... the most dissapointing BMW ever made!

But your pic has chrome still round the window... so DEFO not an M3... or even a 'ClubSport'...
