Seller's Notes

This E3-generation BMW 3.0 Si is a refined and charismatic classic sedan, offered with a desirable factory specification. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 3.0-litre fuel-injected inline-six, delivering around 157kW to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission with a limited-slip differential. This original Australian-market model passed compliance in April 1973 and has only recently been acquired by the seller, having previously been owned by a BMW enthusiast with a large private collection. The odometer indicates 44,953 km, though this is not warranted. Build year: 1973 This E3-era 3.0 Si is finished in the stylish hue of Sienna Brown Metallic with subtle twin beige coachlines, over a beige cloth-trimmed interior, featuring fluted seat sections, a black dashboard and transmission tunnel, and wood veneer and chrome trim. It rides on a set of 14-inch Mahle-BBS cross-spoke alloy wheels fitted with Kumho Powermax 769 tyres. Equipment includes a top-tinted windscreen, a sports exhaust system, front and rear disc brakes, a heated rear screen, a wooden gear knob, an electric sunroof, air conditioning, and a VDO analogue clock. This example has been fitted with an aftermarket CD stereo. The car comes with two keys, the owner’s handbook, and a photo of the most recent maintenance invoice. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. The seller notes that the sunroof does not open. The last maintenance was in August 2024, which consisted of a new fan clutch being installed, a new heavy-duty radiator assembly being fitted, the water pump being replaced, a new thermostat and seal, a service, and a new battery being fitted. This E3-generation BMW 3.0 Si is an engaging and stylish classic sedan, offered with a desirable factory specification. Presented with a refined colour scheme, handsome styling, and boasting a capable fuel-injected inline-six coupled to a four-speed manual gearbox, it would make a fine addition to any marque enthusiast’s collection, and a charismatic companion for vintage daily driving, weekend cruising, and classic car show visits alike.
