About this car

The E36 M3 is one of BMW's more discreet performance cars, and this 1994 coupe stays true to that. It has the 3.0-litre S50 straight-six with individual throttle bodies, a five-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. The page quotes 286 bhp. It is finished in Avus Blue Metallic over light grey leather.

It shows 60,723 miles and is described as unmodified, with its original factory specification including amber front indicators, no rear spoiler and no sunroof. Supplied new by Wheatley Hall BMW in February 1994, it has been a regular show winner and comes with a boot full of trophies.

The history file includes the owner's manuals, the maintenance booklet, invoices, MOT certificates back to 1997 and original sales brochures. The service book has eleven entries from 1994 to November 2025. Recent work includes an air-conditioning re-gas, four new Bridgestone tyres and new auxiliary drive belts. The MOT runs to November 2026.
