Launched in 1991 and remaining in production until 2000, the E36 version of the highly-rated BMW 3-Series was a beautifully built compact sporting four-seater that came in saloon, coupe and convertible body styles.

It was powered by a range of engines from a 1.6-litre four-cylinder to a 3-litre straight-six, all with rear-wheel drive and superb handling characteristics for the keen driver. The 323i version came with a 2.5-litre straight-six that produced 168bhp and 181lb/ft of torque driving through a 5-speed manual gearbox that could launch the convertible version to 60 in just 9.5 seconds with a top speed of 131mph.

First registered in October 1998, this stunning silver blue metallic Cabriolet has been in the current ownership since 2006 and hides its 100,350 miles incredibly well, testament both to the fine build quality of this ‘ultimate driving machine’ and to the care with which its previous owners have treated it. The dark blue power-operated soft top is said to function as it should and complements the blue cloth interior perfectly.

Very little used over the last 8 years apart from annual trips to the MOT station, it is said to come with a good service history up to 2007 and to be “in excellent condition for its age with no known faults”. Also said to “drive beautifully”, it has an MOT until February 2016. A real quality machine with superb road manners, it offers wind in your hair motoring for little more than pocket money.
