Is it me, or does this represent value for money. If the engine is straight and you spent some sorting out the suspension, it would still be a cheap car.
Or is this one of those too good to be true scenarios?

The cynic in me says there must be something wrong with it...

Even so, as you say, amazing value.

The wheels are copies but its got heated seats, and is the only E36 I've ever seen without a sagging glovebox!

Looks well cared for. Not that it tells you anything about the actual state of the engine but the interior looks good and the exterior looks very decent except the replica wheels.
