1998 BMW 318i E46 RHD 5spd *SOLD*
Our first e46! This BMW is part of the collection of cars we’ve chosen overseas to import for those looking for a reliable daily drive that has cool euro flare. Base spec, cloth interior, 5 speed manual and right hand drive. What can be better? Bone stock, has just under 92,000 miles.
Exterior: Titan silver, paint is in fantastic condition with usual nicks and scuffs from use over the years. There is a spot on the passenger front bumper corner that is scuffed/repainted but not very noticeable. Body is straight, no signs of accidents or refinishing. This is a slicktop so no sunroof. New tires are mounted to the stock 16 inch wheels. We noticed how much clearance this car has, could make for a great baja style build! All exterior lights work perfectly.
Interior: Cloth manual seats, an option America never saw. These are simple, comfortable and light. All functions work, zero rips or tears. Dash is extremely clean with every button working. Heat blows hot, AC blows cool but will likely need a recharge. No lights on the dash and every gauge is accurate, no pixels missing. OEM radio works fantastic! Rear seats are also in very good condition, there is the usual glue failure on some of the door card fabric. Headliner is tight. Some scuffing on the center consoles plastic components.
Mechanical: Car fires right up, no odd noises or smoke. The secondary air pump clicks on and off as it should. Fresh spark plugs were installed prior to listing. Engine pulls strong through every gear, maintains correct temperature with no overheating. Clutch is very easy, shifting is smooth and no problems finding gears. This car will make a fantastic daily! There is a small amount of a coolant leak near what we guess is the profile gasket, so this will need to be addressed at some point down the road but not critical at the moment. Its a few drops per drive.
This car comes with its whole set of BMW dealer documents as well its delivered 2 main keys and 1 valet key. Overall unmolested and very original car thats ready for its new home.
Vehicle sold with an Oregon title in the buyers name.
