    Regrettably up for sale is my 1995 Avus blue convertible E36 M3.


    It's the 3.0 litre, 5 speed manual version.


    This is literally my weekend car used for abit of fun as I have a van I use for work.


    I bought the car in February this year with it looking and feeling abit sorry for itself. Over the past few months I have replaced quite a lot of the worn items for new updated parts as you will see from the spec list.


    Mileage is 132 xxx (will increase slightly as is still used at weekends)
    It has MOT until April 2016


    Private plate come with the car. M30 BUK


    Has full bmw and specialist service history.


    Just after I brought the car I had a good friend who's a technician at Cooper BMW Colchester do a few bits on the car for me, this included -


    Valve clearances (changed spark plugs also as they have to come out to do clearances)
    Engine oil change including new filter
    Fuel filter change
    Gearbox oil change (royal purple)
    Rear diff oil change (royal purple)
    Rocker cover gasket
    Vanos refresh of seals and filters
    Fitted poly engine mounts
    Auxiliary belts
    Changed clutch hose for braided item
    Top and bottom coolant hoses, renewing coolant at the same time


    This is a list of items I have changed on the car in my ownership most of which have been brand new.


    Black leather arm rest & centre console
    Full black leather interior / door cards (including ALL plastics & dashboard)
    Wheel stud kit conversion ( Elite Developments)
    Poly Front lower wishbone (eccentric)
    Poly Front arb bush
    Poly Rear arb bush
    Poly Rear beam bush (front and rear)
    Poly Rear trailing arm bushes
    Poly Front and rear diff bushes
    Poly Gearbox mounts
    Poly engine mounts
    Super sprint full exhaust system (minus headers)
    New oem exhaust hangers ( exhaust sits straight and not on the piss like most)
    HSD mono pro coilovers
    New drop links
    Rear turret reinforcement plates
    Front turret reinforcement plates
    M power carbon airbox
    Alpha n re-map
    AKG shifter
    AKG selector rod
    AKG solid steering bush ( not yet fitted but can come with the car)
    Carbon fibre glovebox strip
    Carbon fibre centre console
    Front evo floating discs with blue stuff pads
    Rear discs with blue stuff pads
    Ate dot 4.1 Brake fluid
    Gearbox oil / diff oil (royal purple)
    Wind deflector
    Front strut brace
    Evo front splitter
    Ambers ( can come with clears if that's more your thing)


    Wheels and Tyres
    I have two sets of wheels for the car, first set being a square setup of 16 x 8jj et20 bbs rz alloys wrapped in 205 45 Toyo r1r's
    Second set is a staggered setup of very rare BBS Mahle 16 x 7 et 16 x 8 et24 Wrapped in Yokohama ad08 tyres 205 45 fronts and 225 45 rears.


    Depending which set of wheels are to go with the car will depend on price.


    OR can bring your own wheels and price will be adjusted accordingly.


    The car drives absolutely spot on and is a joy to drive in the sun with the roof down, sounds mega with the super sprint system and carbon airbox roar!


    Now the bodywork, this isn't in the best of condition. It's had some paint in its time and whoever did it made abit of a shite job of it. Rear arches are showing signs off corrosion as are spots on the underneath of the car. This is only surface though and not structural as I've had a good poke around and any inspection is welcome.


    Over the past few months I've put a lot of time and money into the car and I know you never get back what you put in, but having said that I'm not going to give it away. If I don't get the price I'd like for it unfortunate enough I'll break the car up for parts and get my money back that way.


    Price - as it is with the bbs rz wheels and standard front black leather seats I'd like £7650 NO OFFERS!


    IF IT DOES NOT SELL AT THIS PRICE I WILL BREAK BUT ONLY ONCE I HAVE A BUYER FOR ENGINE.

    ID ENTERTAIN SWAPS WITH A CLEAN R32 GTST OR GTR

    Bits can be removed to reduce price such as wheels (bring your own) AKG shifter, strut brace etc.


    Car is located in Manningtree, Essex.

    Thanks dude, bodywork wise I'm being quite critical. But I like to be honest!

    The shifter is different gear, best short shift I've ever used. Damn Americans always getting it right!!

    I'm now planning on breaking this car. First I will need a buyer for the engine, this will include engine, all ancillaries, exhaust headers, ecu, carbon airbox, clutch and flywheel. NO GEARBOX, this can be negotiated in with engine though for extra money.

    I'm going to ask for nearest offers around £3,250.

    If you decide to break this can you let me know(I'll pm you my number).
    I'd be interested in the BBS RZ's and the recaros(if still available). Along with some other bits and bobs
