Arches made from tin, 100 mil spacers and a one of a kind colour.
Yours for £17,500.
Car has done 143,000 miles. Would probably retail at £4k if it was standard.

Slightly off topic but this is an excellent candidate for my game of ‘guess the poorly concealed numberplate’. It took me two attempts Yours for £17,500.

Bodywork falling apart, fair enough, it requires maintanance..
BUT WHAT IS THAT SEAT MOUNTING??????????
They used a couple of box sections to mount the seat to the floor? thats absolutely shocking (one of the last pictures you can see it)
Nice

requires TLC innit, bet it was a trade in, and they have £500 for it or less and thought, some cretin dreamer will want this, a cretin who knows a hooky MOT by phone place.
Was expecting the MOT history to be interesting, slightly disappointed it's got a relatively clean history, right up until the latest one where it's got rot reported. So bodywork is awful and the front and rear subframes are corroded, just needs putting out of it's misery that car.This is brilliant in so many ways - the special photography, the nonsense description, the claim that when new the engine options was "rare" rather than "unpopular" - but it's the "£10,000 off" a POA that is pure Del Trotter genius. I mean, it could haven been £50k off the POA that he made up in the first place who's to know?

They'll also buy it back from you in 5 years for what you paid - love to see the T&Cs on that!

Koenig bodykit fitted from new, 10k miles from new and £10k Eur price tag. The buy back guarantee is bizarre..

They're offering 10k off - the price is not 10k! Probably closer to 100k I suspect.Koenig bodykit fitted from new, 10k miles from new and £10k Eur price tag. The buy back guarantee is bizarre..
The photography is very, very poor (and seems to be the same or all the other cars in their listings).
It has all the makings of a hacked account.
Their website doesn't work either.

Not even sure how I came across this. I've seen some bad photos in the classifieds in my time but I can't remember one where they haven't even bothered to wash the bird s
t off it.

I can't help feeling that should be advertised as a restoration project. It looks pretty grim!Not even sure how I came across this. I've seen some bad photos in the classifieds in my time but I can't remember one where they haven't even bothered to wash the bird s

I don't think I'd look twice at that tbh, it looks standard for a modern BMW?OEMs seem to have taken it upon themselves to drive the aftermarket tat makers completely out of business, from full width lights along the leading edge of the bonnet, to light up badges, those little projections of their logo from the wing mirrors, to naff body kits full of clashing shapes that are as incoherent as Father Jack every tasteless naff magpie trinket is a tick of the options list away now.
Wonder when we'll get the first car with light up windscreen squirters from the factory?

Probably. E46s are well known for this because of where the battery sits, supposedly in order to better balance out the weight of the driver sitting in the left front seat. I wouldn't be surprised if it applied to other smaller models too where the weight of the battery has more impact.

I really like this display design. Not sure it's worth 1500 quid and the cost of disposing of the rest of the car though.
