Bit of an odd request but you couldn't show some photos of the wind deflectors. I know it's odd but seriously considering getting some for my f31 340 as I can't have the windows down when going past 50 because all I get wind noise!

Nothing wrong with that request! Just bear in mind they'll be a slightly different shape as yours is a newer model.

Here you go:


If I'm honest, they don't make a huge difference in wind noise, but they do reduce how much you get battered by having the windows down. And I love the way they look.

Here's my pride and joy, picked it up last week.

Since selling my first E36 compact a couple of years ago due to a second child, I have been trying to get back into a good one when the time was right and the kids were a bit older. Came across this little beauty on the Trader, and couldn't say no.

I was first attracted to that amazing Webasto electric folding roof! This was a very expensive option when the car was released, so expensive in fact that hardly anyone opted for it. I love it and it really makes the car special. I read up that they actually released this as a special edition, The California, however that came with full leather so this has been specced up to the exactly the same apart from the seats. I believe this was a dealer demo, and all the original dealer stickers are in place. It has main dealer service history from 2000 (new) to 2010 and meticulously maintained since then. It looks and drives like new, despite covering over 170,000 miles!

The roof is a real head turner but it's got loads of other options:

Body coloured sills and bumpers
Traction Control
Rear Headrest
Centre Armrest
Passenger Airbag
Air Con
Alloys
Motorsport Rear Spoiler
And it's the 1.9 M43 as opposed to the 1.6 I had before...makes a difference!

All this finished off in lovely Turkish Green for just £500.

Say hello to Turk!

All fine and well, but where are the pictures of the roof then thumbup

That does look like an awesome way to spend 500 though. Love it

Very nice.

They were mad to let that go for £500!

My 328i sport.

Two previous owners... First being 70s McLaren driver Howden Ganley (not that I had heard of him before I bought the car!)

Nikasil engine yet uses less oil than my last steel liner 328i!

Thanks. I didn't know E36s came this clean!

I had the rare opportunity of actually getting the car up on a ramp before buying it to have a good look underneath. I couldn't believe how clean it was.

I watch a lot of your videos on YouTube BTW. Great looking roads round there.

E36's have really grown into their looks- my desire and need keeps growing for a nice 328i or Alpina cab.
