E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) Does he really need 4 doors? This coupe in metallic blue is around the same budget with fewer Kms but it is an auto... http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/...n-380166765.htm I notice the 4 door has no rego or WoF, you might want to get that sorted by the seller before committing to the deal, can be a few expensive nasties at WoF time.

my_e36 43 Report post Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) I could be wrong but I don't think that style of steering wheel belongs to a 98 Motorsport. It should have a big round air-bag thing in the middle (as per photo). Someone swapped it in after airbag deployment?

Will have it warranted and registered before it is sold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark 178 Report post Posted June 9, 2011 Overpriced for a 318is IMO. Have seen good ones with lower K's for a lot less (manual too) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sam726 29 Report post Posted June 10, 2011 Price range is around the 6k mark, specifically after a manual Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
