Just in case anyone is debating selling up, I am in the market for an E46 M3.

Ideally carbon black or grey, no to red leather or that Kiwi leather and ideally would like the HK, Sat nav / TV set up and has to be under 60k miles.

Must have FBMWSH and plenty of tax and mot.

Thanks

Are you sure you don't want kiwi leather.
Mine will be in the classifieds in the next few days.

It is a 2005 Carbon Black, Manual but has Kiwi leather. Sat Nav/TV + 6 months BMW Warranty + Harmon Kardon + 33400 miles. Just had inspection 2 at 33200 miles.



Email me if you would like more details.

Kiwi interior sounds terrible, but actually is very very nice combined with the black bodywork .... Looks vile with pheonix yellow though.

Had a carbon black one before and although black is not my favourite colour, it looked quite well in the sunlight.

Agreed, the Phoenix yellow ones, to me are repulsive, have seen some very strange colour combinations, like a very light blue interior on some of them, bit of luck we're not all the same I suppose...

That looks really nice - I like Carbon+Kiwi. I'd have been very interested myself if it was SMG.. good luck with the sale.

selling my E46 in March. June 05 car, CSL Grey, Black Leather, 1 previous owner, FBMWSH, just serviced plus 2 new rears and 4-wheel alignment. Higher miles than you're looking for at 90k but very good condition and no expense spared.... new steering rack, coil springs, RTABS, discs and pads fitted within last 18k miles. Every option except folding mirrors.

Hi - mine is in the classified section. It's got the Imola Red leather I'm afraid, but apart from that it fits the bill. In the flesh I think the red leather looks great against Carbon Black as it's a deep matt red colour (not sure the photos quite do the colour justice!).

Here's the link in case you're interested: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1500118.htm

Thanks for all the info chaps - I'm off to view a grey one at the weekend - no Sat Nav or HK though but very attractive mileage, incidentally, do the TV's work ok now it's all digital?

Depends on the age of the car... Later cars have the hybrid tuners that add digital coverage. Can't remember exactly when it changed, I think it was the 2005MY (Sept\Oct 2004 onwards) that it changed but I could well be wrong.

depends on how much your offering, mines carbon black with grey leather and all the extras, HK stereo,, TV, sat nav, cd changer, heated seats, tire pressure, 19's, sun roof and rear auto blind for rear window.

Its got just under 55k on the clock and 12 months tax MOT till september 2010 and yep FBMWSH its a 2001 Y reg though so older but everything you could want on a M3

I'm looking at getting convertible but would need to sell mine first so let me know if intrested
