Firstly let me just start by saying that i really don't want to sell this car. It took me countless hours of trawling through the various Japanese auction sites and back channels to find this incredible specimen of an E36. But, i have decided to move to France for work and i cant take the car with me sadly.
My plan for the car was to completely disassemble it and rebuild it into a BTCC/JTCC replica to race in the MSVR eBay championships next year, hence why it's unregistered. Some people may shy away from an unregistered car but you're missing out on two very important bonuses if you do. 1) If you decide to register it (which takes no effort these days because its 30 years old) you'll be the first and only owner of the car in this country. 2) You know for a fact it hasn't been driven on our pot hole filled, salt covered excuses for roads yet. In my book being in the trade, two huge benefits at the cost of some minor work. The car has literally only just come into the country and has been sat in my garage under a cover since.
Specs are as follows:
- 1994 3 series E36 saloon
- Just 7821 miles from new
- 1 owner previously in Japan
- Completely original
- 2 main keys plus original master key
- All VAT/duty has been paid
- NOVA has been cleared
- All original import paperwork and certs present
This is now an official classic car being 30 years old, but is still in outstanding condition, not just for its age. There is no rust anywhere, which is rare for an e36, everything works as it should. It starts, runs and drives (round the block to check) beautifully, engine is crisp and smooth with no noises at all, gearbox is sharp and selects gears with no hesitation whatsoever. The underneath which i have tried to photo is immaculate as well, but it is to be expected from a 7800 mile car not being driven in this country.
There is only 1 bad bit i can see on the car. The lacquer on the N/S rear corner of the roof has been damaged (pictured), no idea from what, i bought it like this, but as i was going to repaint the whole thing, it didn't bother me. Some wet flat and a light touch over, you'd probably not even notice it.
This is more than likely the best example and lowest mileage in the UK right now. A rare chance to own a fast appreciating classic car. It even still has its new car smell inside!
The price is exactly what i paid to get it from Japan to my doorstep correctly. I'm not looking to make any profit, it just needs to go to a good home.
If you would like me to register the car on your behalf, i am more than happy to do so at no additional cost.
