2003 BMW

BMW 330D SE Touring Auto (Diesel) E46, 2926cc straight six M57 turbo diesel producing 184BHP, registered Mar 2003, been in same family from new (father owned 2003-2012, myself since 2012), 162k miles, full independent service history and all paperwork/receipts available, recent services at 154.4k, 145.3k, 135.5k, 127k, 117k, 109k, 98k. MOT to 8/12/26. Very good condition for age. Factory fitted sunroof and factory fitted detachable towbar, both working. Green paintwork and grey leather interior. Unmodified with no aftermarket additions.

For full disclosure, known issues are – rear washwipe not working, central/ driver door locking non-functional, usual BMW surface rust on offside rear wheel arch (shown in photos), occasionally grumbling rear differential (new bushes fitted recently but garage has suggested replacement at some point). Market value with the known issues factored in would be £2-£2.5k, so I have priced competitively to be fair.

This is a well-looked after car that is very low mileage (the BMW M57 3.0-litre inline-six diesel engine is widely regarded as one of the most reliable and durable powerplants BMW ever built, routinely achieving 250,000 to 300,000 miles and often pushing past 400,000 to 500,000 miles with proper maintenance). It’s very practical for daily use as well as towing really well. I’m looking for it to go to a genuine enthusiast who will refresh the known issues and enjoy it for the next 160k miles!
