The previous owner of the car had been looking for ‘the right’ E92 M3 for some time, upon purchasing this example as it was the only one he found which met his standards, the owner then decided to make the car exactly as he wanted with a ‘no expense spared’ approach. Over £10,000.00 was spent ensuring that precautionary works were done (rod bearings & actuators) & then having the car look exactly as wanted with the Competition wheels, carbon fibre parts, & high level detailing/paint protection etc.

All booklets are in the file, along with the spare key, original welcome booklet, MOT certificates & various other invoices.

Body & Paintwork

As you would fully expect, the bodywork of this example is in very nice condition.

The car recently had various genuine BMW carbon fibre parts fitted, such as the spoiler & front spats, it also had the genuine competition wheels fitted along with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres. At the same time, the car had the calliper’s professionally stripped & painted in red & a full front end protection film sprayed on along with a full detail & ceramic coating.

The chrome parts were also wrapped in gloss black & overall, all this work gives for a much more sporty & aggressive look with a great finish thanks to the detailing.

In total, with the detailing, caliper’s refurb, skins paint protection, gloss black of chrome parts & mirror caps, fitting of wheels, & carbon fibre parts nearly £5,000.00 (not including parts).

A great looking car which has clearly been loved.

Interior & Trim

As per the rest of the car, the interior is in very good order.

Everything works exactly as it should do, the keyless start has no issues at all.
No modifications have been carried out, all seats are in very good condition with only very minor outer bolster wear on the drivers seats & minimal wear to the gear knob.

This example is obviously a manual transmission example which makes it great fun to drive.
All trims & carpets are in good condition, all switchgear is in good condition & the original stereo/sat nav all operates correctly.

Engine

The magnificent sounding V8.

Causing quite a stir upon release, the V8 M3 is now becoming ever more sought after & it is easy to see why.
A high revving V8 is sure to put a smile on anybody’s face.

Having had regular servicing & being low mileage, you can rest assured this has been a cherished example.
The two main areas for concern with the V8 are rod bearings & throttle actuators, both of which have been done on this car as a precautionary measure.

The modstock exhaust modification means it sounds absolutely brilliant, yet can be driven in such a manner that it sounds very tame & polite as well.
Obviously the car has no unwanted noises, it does not smoke & it performs very well with instant throttle response.

The engine bay itself presents very nicely as can be seen in the pictures.

Running Gear

With regular maintenance, you can rest assured this car is not the usual used & abused high mileage example.

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyres have not covered many miles, nor have the Eibach lowering springs (original springs are with the car as well).
When driving the car, the clutch & gearbox operate really nicely, the handling & braking is very good & confidence inspiring.
