BMW M3 SMG

This E46 M3 is a 2003 coupe with the 338 bhp 3.2-litre straight-six and the six-speed SMG II automated manual, operated by steering-wheel paddles. It is finished in Silver Grey Metallic over black Nappa leather, with 19-inch polished M alloys, a glass sunroof, satellite navigation and a Harman Kardon audio system.

It has been with its current owner since November 2008, and the V5 shows two former keepers. The service book starts with Barons BMW of Farnborough, including the running-in check at 1,251 miles. Main-dealer servicing continued to 54,572 miles in 2008, and an independent specialist took over from 2010. The latest recorded Inspection II was in November 2024 at 76,940 miles. The car comes with its original document wallet, handbooks and a spare key.

The page lists a rear axle carrier panel repair and reinforcement at 77,865 miles. The work used a Redish V3 kit, included repairs to cracked spot welds and corrosion treatment, and is backed by a £5,046.99 invoice and photographs. The dealer notes only minor cosmetic flaws: light stone chipping, some marks under the lacquer on three wheels and a small area of bubbling on the boot lid. The interior is described as very well preserved.
