£6k for a K reg 318i?
They go for £3k max. And with that mileage he'd be lucky.
And to get another 40bhp from that engine would cost a bomb. 180bhp LMAO. He's probably added a filter and induction kit for a 2bhp increase.
He'd be better off selling the wheels seperately.

tbh, the car looks straight and solid underneath all the silly decals and badges.
Imoa I would have left it looking like a standard 318is. It would then looked like a nice, honest and unmolested car. Probably would of sold straight away too.

Its all a bit sad the way it is plastered in badges to compensate for the lack of authenticity. Not sure if the speedlines are authentic AC schnitzer, if they are then they are the only thing that IS authentic schnitzer. The steering wheel is not an M3 one and there is no way 180bhp is coming out of the engine which looks totally standard!
Even the fast and the furious style "boost" gauges are fake
Edited to add: I don't begrudge people having the car as they want it, but I hate the way he is making false claims about it in order to rip off some poor unsuspecting buyer!

Does indeed....despite being a 'sheep in wolves clothing'. And looking at the dash pics, an inspection is due...nice selling point.
I wish every car advert had this many pics and this much detail U gotta give the guy credit!

It looks ok (if you like that sort of thing) just on the fine line but its the descriptions that cracked me up.
'it cost ¨38.ooo new.' 38 grand for a 318is, hmmm
'Unfortunately the Full BMW Service History and a very expensive radio has been stolen from the car'

Sad.

"as good as BMW 320, 323 & 325 and insurance is as low as for 316)!"
Exactly how does that work then! It's a 318is.....which as std would be more expensive to insure than a 316.....then you start to add all the mods etc.........the mind boggles!

It's a big pile of pooh. He should have just stopped with the quote "I am very sad.."
If it's the best M3 replica, why has it got those silly speed lines down the side? Looks like he's crashed it parking.
Bah!

credit for all the mods to the car, does look ok.
but AC and M3 badges together? one or the other would be fine but this is OTT. just like having brabus and amg badges on his prospective merc S..... i'm beginning to wonder... sanity beckons

My 318iS (also 1993) is standard except for leather, front lip spoiler and a set of polished 328 sport rims.
Every person ive showed that page to reckons mine looks better.
Anyone who pays that for it is mad....
You can get a geunine 1994 M3 for that sort of money nowadays...

If the parts are genuine M3 parts then they must have been nicked off a real M3. Apparently you can only order real M3 parts with a real M3 chasis number - at least this is what I was told by BMW when so F****r stole my wing mirrors years ago.
