2003 BMW

Offered for sale after 16 years of ownership is my 2003 BMW E46 320Ci Clubsport Manual, finished in Estoril Blue.

This is a genuine factory Clubsport, supplied new in the UK and accompanied by the original BMW build sheet confirming the Clubsport option package. It also comes with the original German Fahrzeugbrief, two original BMW remote keys, the original BMW wallet and manuals, plus an extensive history file built up over my ownership.

One point worth mentioning, as it is often questioned, is that this is not a modified or converted car. The original BMW build sheet confirms it left the factory with the Clubsport option package, and it remains an honest, original example.

The 2.2-litre M54 straight-six is one of BMW’s finest naturally aspirated engines. Smooth, refined and characterful, it suits the E46 perfectly and delivers the balanced driving experience these cars are known for.

The car has been well maintained throughout my ownership. Any work required has been carried out as needed, and the accompanying history file contains invoices and records documenting its maintenance over the past 16 years.

Recently recommissioned following a period in storage, with over £700 spent preparing the car for its MOT. It starts, drives and performs very well and has an MOT until June 2027.

Documentation includes

* Original BMW build sheet confirming Clubsport specification

* Original German Fahrzeugbrief

* Two original BMW remote keys

* Original BMW wallet and manuals

* Partial BMW main dealer and specialist service history

* Extensive invoices and history file

* Original toolkit

* Spare wheel and jack

The bodywork presents very well for its age. There are a few honest cosmetic imperfections, including minor bubbling on the driver’s front wheel arch, a few bonnet stone chips and light wear to the driver’s seat bolster, all shown in the photographs.

As far as I have been able to establish, this is currently the only Estoril Blue 320Ci Clubsport advertised on AutoTrader in the UK. The only other Estoril Blue Clubsports currently advertised are 330Ci models.

I’ve tried to price the car fairly, taking into account its originality, provenance, condition and documentation.
