Description

E46 325ti M-sport Compact 6 speed manual.

Extremely rare & bespoke specification in the best colour combination.
Black leather & bright Titan Silver.
A collector's/enthusiasts dream car. Hence finally being convinced I should treat myself.
Low mileage at just over 110k now.

I know I need to do a proper/new set of photos but I just haven’t had time.
Any inspection/drive more than welcome for genuine buyer.

It is the only one of this spec in the UK for sale (on the main sites), however with the subtle upgrades & Condition it is a complete one-off.

Not sure how I’m going to let her go.. My car I wanted for 10 years is very sadly being advertised for sale.
After 4 other Compacts in the family I finally got my M-Sport 325ti & with incredible spec. I’ve only ever had older BMW’s & this one is just so special.

However. I have spine injury plus knee & foot injuries (on left side of course) just getting worse so I am being forced finally into looking for an automatic. I had taken the advert off but another bad patch with my knee & I'm having to reconsider again.
I Thought I was going to start going to shows again with it but my back etc & other commitments I’m just not up to cleaning & ‘playing’ with cars any more. Much as I hate to admit it.

As usual, another impressed compliment from the windscreen fitter recently. ‘you don’t see many of these about & it’s in such immaculate condition’.
So Brand new tinted/heated windscreen 28.08.25 due to a stone chip.

This car is an incredible drive & so comfortable & safe feeling. Suits both sporty & more relaxed driving easily with plenty of power & torque, it just takes you.
I have been stopped by people many times as it’s so rare & such a beautiful example. I travelled 300 miles to fetch it. It’s stared at and smile/respect-nodded etc everywhere I go.

Beautiful M-sport refinements throughout
Carbon trim
Black leather interior in beautiful condition. Back seats look new & have never been used by me. Front seats have no tears or anything that doesn’t dye/polish up.

This was a much loved ‘project’ of a car but the owner was forced to sell it due to a separation. All the work was done by his friend who has a garage specialising in older sports cars in Irvine.

Details when I bought it-
All new brakes ,discs ,pads and callipers (330i m sport brakes front and rear)
Bushes replaced (Powerflex front and rear subframe and trailing arms)
New ball joints, track arms and track rods
LUK flywheel & LUK Clutch fitted at about 108,000 miles
Tinted rear Windows
Maxrod 24 way adjustable shock and height and preload adjustable spring, Coilover suspension all around.
Currently set soft and is totally comfortable whilst also feeling very stable if you want a bit of a smile on corners.
Very smart Custom Tony Banks stainless steel Exhaust system. Has a beautiful deep grumble but is not offensively loud at all.
Outstanding mechanical condition
Very well serviced over the years
MV1 18” wheels with new Toyo Tyres all around (£600)- (The wheels were newly refurbished and only have a few tiny marks on one wheel.)
Very smart Xenon headlights
New Wipers
Smoked lenses all around

I Bought her as a very rare present for myself. I just had to have one before the 'automatic stage' in my life.
I really don’t find it as thirsty on fuel as you’re lead to think either. Nowhere near what I was expecting. Tax is £430 so not in the ridiculous £730 category.

Even has a ‘LOVE’ number plate.

Under my (lady BMW lover) ownership I have had a few more things done-

Subtle 12mm spacers fitted on the back.
New rear ABS/Speed sensor
Both primary Lamda sensors replaced
GM5 Electrical Control unit serviced
Main Key serviced with new battery- All fully working. There is a spare too.
Oxygen sensor replaced
Full set of NGK platinum Spark Plugs fitted
New Bosch Coil pack fitted

Completely clear MOT until April 2026.
No warning/dash lights.

All done by Fast Road Vehicle Solutions- BMW specialist.

Everything electrical working inc cruise control which is so useful.
Electric folding mirrors & Parking sensors.

I only do about 70 miles per week in her usually but we've had several 350 mile trips to Scotland to visit my mum. She doesn't miss a beat & I feel totally safe in the chunky & bullet-proof BMW frame & interior.

The front bumper does have some curb damage underneath. Not visible unless you get under it. 1 small patch of 'top coat rubbed off' on one corner but you really have to look to notice.
Personally I would just have the bumper wrapped in the same colour if you wanted it perfect for not much outlay. I have sanded & treated some tiny micro-blisters on the rear arches & that’s it rust wise. I will leave that to the new owner as to what they want to do but it doesn’t actually look bad as it is.
I have cleaned & rust treated all the arches & door sills.

I am gutted to even think of letting her go so just seeing if an appreciative buyer comes along.

Please email/message as calls rarely connect here.

Danielle :-)
