Default BMW e46 330ci Autograph Supercharged Convertible 320bhp Manual


Hi,

Here is a rare opportunity to own a one of a kind genuine show car. The car spent most of its life as a show car, or has been garaged which you will be able to see by condition and the fortunes spent on it.
I am a true BMW enthusiast and had to try it out when the opportunity came (owned 318is,323ci,328i, z4 3.0, M3 Evo) so i knew exactly what i was buying and how to look after it.

MOT:03.2014
TAX:06.2014
HPi:Clean
Service history: Full,mostly by Caste Motors (supercar dealer)

So about the car:

Engine:
3.0 petrol
Genuine Full Vortech V-2 Supercharger kit (Not a build your own, but a full kit from america with genuine pulleys, custom map etc.)
Please take your time to research about these chargers,as its the oil cooled Centrifugal Supercharger that looks like a turbo,but is driven by belts,bit noisy on idle, and great on all rev range (totally unique sound!) - £4000 when new+installation!!!
The car feels like a standard smooth bmw but has 320Bhp and 372Nm still keeping the reliability+great consumption+feel of the BMW power plant
http://vf-engineering.com/other-bmw/bmw-e46

Using the car daily I easily achieve :
38MPG - motorway
28- usual daily figures
22MPG- extra urban
Only V-Power petrol is used !

Gearbox:
Manual 5 speed

Suspension/brakes:
Genuine Autograph suspension setup
Genuine 330ci brakes with recent pads and disks

Body:
Sapphire black
Autograph front bumper
Autograph rear bumper
Autograph sideskirts
Autograph side chrome trim (metal, not cheap looking plastic)
Autograph Mirrors
Autograph badges
Breyton Magic R19 alloys (cost a fortune new ! very wide aswell!)
The roof is in excellent condition with no signs of wear at all!
Rear parking sensors

Interior:
Black leather interior in mint condition with silver trim.
M Sport electric seats with memory
Climate control
Cruise control
6CD Changer with BMW Business stereo with BT
Racetech UK trim

Service history:
6241 06.03
19081 06.05
27216 12.06
30000 04.08
35895 08.08
36878 01.10
40009 02.11
45180 02.12
52000 06.13 (Full fluid change and supercharger rebuild)
55127 4.12.2013 (Castrol oil/filter, thermostat, waterpump, radiator, antifreeze)

Things to do:
Needs the front wheel bearing changed (I already have the required part, just cant understand which side is it. quoted only £40 labour)
Scratch on the bottom of the bumper due to entering a unfriendly angled car park exit...
I will try to sort these things out if I have time, otherwise I'm happy to adjust the price to make it perfect


There is probably a lot more I have missed, but I'm sure that you will be amazed once you see it.


Cash price : £5800 but could be interested in a px/swap for something nice (EVO,STi,645i etc)
Located: Southampton

Please no time wasters or wannabes
