November 2021 Classics Auction

 
  Lot 49
 

2004 BMW 320i

Registration - RK54 UHV

Chassis No. - WBABD12010PM15445

M.O.T. - February 2022

Odometer - 123,300

This handsome E46 BMW had its brake pipes replaced 4,000 ago, while the rear discs and pads were renewed only recently, along with many other wear-related parts. The last full service was carried out in March 2020, when the odometer stood at 120,000 miles. The vendor informs us that the bodywork and paint are ‘in very good condition, with the chips on the bonnet being commensurate with mileage, and the alloy wheels featuring only minor scuffs’. The matching Pirelli tyres apparently ‘have plenty of tread all-round’. Overall he presently regards the six-cylinder engine, six-speed manual transmission and black leather upholstery as ‘excellent’ and the coupe bodywork and silver grey paintwork as ‘good’. He is now offering the BMW for sale complete with original book pack and dealer wallet, complete original toolkit, a pair of keys/remote controls, and a good degree of service history (including some main dealer stamps), plus a current MOT valid to February 4 next year. The odometer currently stands at 123,300 miles.

The E46 was the fourth generation of BMW’s all-conquering 3 Series model. Produced from 1997 to 2006 it was available in saloon, coupe, estate and convertible guises and with a range of engines from 1.6 to 3.0-litres. That which powered the popular 320i model in 2004 delivered 168bhp and 155 lb ft of torque – sufficient output to combine lively performance with a pleasing level of economy. The E46 generation of 3 Series models has for many enthusiasts proved to be the cream of an excellent crop, and good examples of most versions are increasingly keenly sought. The ensuing generation of 3 Series was the E90, another fine offering but of different character.

In summary:

  • A tidy example of a popular model
  • Well-presented with no known faults
  • Complete with plenty of history and current MOT
