Brilliant example of a good car...........A steal for £800. Plenty of these neglected and molsested.

What colour is it ?

Looking forward to pics :)

Very nice example. Always had a soft spot for the E36. Out of interest what's the reason for not tinting the back screen as looks a little odd.

The E36 and E46 were, in my view, the last really good looking 3-series. Same with the 5-er from around that time. Never liked the 'Bangled' versions that followed. Even the new 'Post-Bangle' versions are not as handsome. But then I drive a lard-arse X6 so what do I know.... :oops:

£800 is a bargain. Good catch.. :)

Got me reminiscing about my old M3 Evo. It was Boston Green too. Loved that car.
Looks like your one has been well looked after too.

Looks great and loving those rims.

I agree re tint, any particular reason, are you not doing the fronts a legal shade to make it blend in?

Bargain at £800, well done
