Recorded Mileage: 49,300 miles

The BMW E46 3 Series Coupe, particularly in 325Ci M Sport specification, occupies a special place in the marque’s history - offering a near-perfect balance of design purity, mechanical refinement, and everyday usability. Now firmly established as a modern classic, the E46 generation is widely regarded as one of BMW’s finest chassis achievements, with the 325Ci model combining a silky straight-six engine with crisp, rear-wheel-drive dynamics and a level of build quality that has proven remarkably enduring.

This particular example, first registered in 2003, is a standout in both condition and originality. Very handsome, finished in Titanium Silver Metallic over Black leather, the BMW has covered just 49,300 genuine miles from new, accompanied by a full service history. Notably, the car has never failed an MOT, and the most recent test was passed with no advisories - a strong reflection of careful long-term ownership and diligent upkeep.

The factory M Sport specification elevates this car above standard examples, featuring body-coloured aerodynamic enhancements, sports suspension, and the desirable 18" M double-spoke 135 alloy wheels, giving the car a purposeful, road-hugging stance. Inside are sport seats trimmed in black leather, with driver memory function and electric adjustment, set against anthracite headlining and the distinctive Aluminium 'Black Cube' interior trim - hallmarks of the M Sport cabin package.

Further equipment includes automatic air conditioning, Park Distance Control (PDC), auto-dimming interior mirror, electric folding door mirrors, cruise control, fog lights, and a multifunction M Sport steering wheel. The car is also equipped with BMW’s Business radio, and retains its original warning triangle and first aid kit, underscoring the completeness of this example.

Under the bonnet lies BMW’s revered 2.5-litre M54 straight-six, producing 189bhp, paired here with a smooth automatic transmission offering both sport and manual modes. The result is refined, responsive performance, equally suited to relaxed cruising or more spirited driving, enhanced by the E46’s superbly balanced chassis and rear-drive layout.

Examples of the E46 Coupe in this condition, with such low mileage and complete specification, are now very rare. With values rising for clean, original E46's and moreso the M Sport models, this is a compelling opportunity to acquire a cherished example of one of BMW’s best-loved modern classics—ready to be enjoyed and admired.
