The current owner of this lovely burgundy metallic 325i manual drop top has owned the car since 2023. It had been sat in a garage in Bedford for a decade. The car was then professionally recommissioned to make it road worthy again. It then went into storage until 2025 when the owner decided to use and enjoy it for the summer season. With other projects nearing completion he has decided this one has to go.

The burgundy paint with gold pinstripe and black roof looks fantastic with just some minor age-related marks to report and a couple of small dings on the driver rear quarter, easily rectified with some PDR. The body remains solid and straight. The manual roof is in good condition as is the rear screen with it all folding away nicely. Having been garaged much of its life the underside remains in really good unrestored condition. Equally the beige leather interior has been restored to exceptional order, and with an uncracked dash. The car is fitted with MTech 1 steering wheel and gear knob as well as some aftermarket audio, otherwise the car remains standard and drives very well. The car has nice little features still from factory such as its working electric aerial, what look to be dealership floor mats, its rear screen cover and tool kit.

The rear lid for folding away the roof, the rams have failed so you have to hold it up to put the roof away. The car has heated seat but currently they do not work.
