Lovely example😍..love a wagon😎

[@alexdavenport3758]

Had a AC schnitzer c30 one of these after trading my e36 m3 against it when my kid was born. 330i wit 3:09 3:13 h super charger added by bmw. Split rims. Body kit and the 5 speed gear box to handle the extra torque. Real quick car and bit a sleeper as no one knew what it was. Loved it but parts were so rare it was expensive to maintain. Love a bmw touring.

I love these bmws just something about them

[@drivesoserious6548]

Factory my 46 saloon has this on a 04 plate the carbon fibre bit great cars had no issues with mine at all in the 6 months ive owned it

[@garypankhurst9014]

Love my E91 325i

[@nivens.1604]

I think another car going through a similar process is the MB/MC generation civics. We've had a B18 powered estate version as our family car for the last 11 years, it's been absolutely fantastic in that time and only let us down once when the distributor gave up, but it's quick, looks great being a VTi, and it's just a bit different. Problem is now parts are getting so hard to find many of them have just been thrown in the bin

Think ure right! Greetings from Stockholm Sweden.

Your spot on Bro the right spec E46 Wagon ,Coupe or Saloon are super hot great value well built cars. I've just bought a late 04 Compact Sport 325ti 6 Speed with a Manual Purple Tag Rack as standard in Silver Grey with Black leather what a car and all for 3.5k can't stay that price for long Baby M3 according to Marc Gene .The MB lump is a sweetie revs to nearly 7 there is absolutely nothing not to like about the E46 range if like you said buy the right spec car now you can't go wrong with your $$$££££ in one.

Great review - who provided the music?

[@garrydiggins3181]

I’ve got an E36 M3 Evo. If you wanna have a go, I’m not far from you. On the South coast.

[@roningelert]

Perhaps the closest is the E46 Alpina B3 3.3 or 3.4 touring albeit it’s an auto I’m lucky enough to say I have an Alpina b3 touring and a 330i touring 6 speed 😎

[@kieranking3150]

Nice mate, I currently have 2 330i 6 speed tourings. One is SE the other is Sport

[@lawriemillerdrums888]

Love mine, but why the 316i badge!? Made me laugh anyway. Either this isn’t stock or the owner wants it to look like a sleeper. 😂

[@paultucker1272]

Yep, that "carbon" trim is standard. I had an E46 M330i M Sport saloon (auto)......silver with black leather! One of the best cars I've ever owned! It had one odd failing.......I did a lot of motorway miles and if it was torrential rain, the front discs would get soaked and the first time you pressed the pedal you got nothing! Not sure if it was caused my the vents in the M Sport from bumper. Quite off putting on a busy, dark, wet M4 motorway!! I sold it because the front wings started to rust badly, and replacement wings and a respray were going to cost more than the car was worth. I replaced it with an E60 535D......which was an unreliable dog :(

[@drivesoserious6548]

Im at this cross road with mine ive got a 320D m sport and ideally it wants the back arches doing and i dunno if i can justify paying for them be replaced then paint on top

[@seanmaynard8208]

Yeah the carbon was standard bi believe with the m spec

[@sherlockholmez8764]

Cloest or closet?

[@darrenrevill8664]

Last of the great bmw's?

[@DaleSteel]

Bmws have always hard horrible manual gearboxes so I'll suspect somebody has altered the shifter

[@JayzBeerz]

First ❤

[@user-xe5yd8xk1p]

The channel has died the videos are either pointless reviews, or filming of other garages doing Stuff there's no direction anymore and everything feels too contrived and desperate for views rather then natural

[@waynelewis5656]

Another stupid question from Jamie 🥱 yes its an e46. It has an engine which is almost as large as the m3, the biggest yoi could get as an estate. Of course it's the closest. At least it makes a nice change to not hear Jamie going on like a giggling teenager, interrupting everyone and finishing off their sentences
