MOT: September 2025

• Famously smooth 2-litre straight-six engine allied to five-speed manual transmission
• Well preserved, factory-fitted Black leather interior and said to 'drive extremely well'

The BMW E30 is the second generation of BMW 3-Series, which was produced from 1982 to 1994 after replacing the E21 3-Series. The model range included coupé and convertible body styles, as well as being the first 3-Series to be produced in saloon and estate body styles. The 320i was fitted with a two-litre straight-six petrol engine mated to either a five-speed Getrag manual or four-speed automatic pushing it to over 120mph. Far, far rarer than its saloon siblings, just 32,686 examples of BMW’s iconic E30-generation 320i Convertible were made (with most being to LHD specification).

First registered on the 1st August 1988, 'F432 SLJ' was specified in Alpine White over a Black leather interior with a Black mohair hood and was fitted from factory with the desirable five-speed manual transmission. Throughout the car’s life, it has evidently been cherished and is presented with a comprehensive service history and the original book pack.

Purchased by the vendor in 2016, the E30’s V5C records six previous keepers and displays 93,365 miles from new which is believed genuine as evidenced by MOT history. Upon inspection, the straight-six power unit fired into life with incredible ease and the vendor is confident that the mechanical condition of the car is ‘very good to excellent’. The paintwork appears to have been equally well cared for and it was hard to find age-related wear – the vendor also states that the condition is ‘very good’. The owner advises that the Black leather interior ‘appears to show far less miles than is indicated’ although he did state that the steering wheel leather has worn through at the top and will require repair.

The vendor has thoroughly enjoyed the now very desirable cabriolet for eight years, and due to an expansion in his collection, but not an expansion in storage space, he feels it is due a new, loving home. The six-cylinder E30s have been becoming ever more desirable in recent years and this example would look very much at home in any prospective buyer’s collection.

PLEASE NOTE: This BMW has recently been through a fresh MOT with no advisories and has had the steering wheel repaired professionally in preparation for sale.
