Seller's Notes

This E30-generation BMW 325i is a charismatic modern classic coupe, offered with a desirable factory specification and enhanced with a couple of discerning upgrades. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 2.5-litre inline-six, which sends its power to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. This original Australian-market example passed compliance in January 1991 and has only recently been acquired by the seller. The odometer shows 227,589 km from new. Build year: 1990 This E30-era 325i is finished in the bold shade of Brilliant Red, over a grey cloth-trimmed interior, featuring a black dashboard and transmission tunnel. It now rides on a set of 16-inch BBS ‘RS 003’ split-rim alloy wheels fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tyres. Equipment includes a top-tinted windscreen, M Sports suspension, an M Sports steering wheel, sports seats, electric front windows, an analogue clock, air conditioning, push-out rear windows, and an on-board computer. This example has been enhanced with H&R sports springs, Bilstein B8 shock absorbers, and a removable stereo headunit. The car is accompanied by the original BMW owner’s manuals in a silver plastic wallet, the stamped service booklet, a spare wheel, tools, a history file with receipts for prior work, and two keys. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: the front seats have been refurbished and retrimmed by Melbourne Auto Upholstery. The seller notes that the speedometer has recently stopped working. The last maintenance was in November 2024 at 227,561 km, which consisted of the coolant and engine oil being renewed, and the timing belt being replaced. Under the seller’s ownership, the suspension has been overhauled by Tru Track Suspension.
