kmn stanced E36 325i Cabriolet on Carline's!

Postitus Postitas kmn »

Hi all,

hereby presenting you my longtime neverending project. I live in Finland and originally brought this car 3-4 years back from Estonia (Valga to be exact), so this might be familiar for some of you people.. Would be nice to hear some details of the history of this car, if possible?! The car had Rondell 58's on it when i bought it, but after this the car had 3 different wheel setups including BBS RS replicas, 10x17 Rondell's all around etc.. Also the car had been repainted with Jaguar Sapphire Blue metallic at some point for whatever reason..

This is how the car looked when i bought it:

And this is how it looks now...

- Basically everything on the outside is NEW!

The car has 256 000 km on it and i've owned the car the past 70 000km. Invested thousands of euros to the car (needless to say).. Always changed oils, filters and candles between 7-10 000km. Just passed MOT with only notes from missing parklights. :)

Car comes with original fully polished Carline CM6 wheels (10" ET7 front 3,5" lip, 11,5" ET13 rear 4" lip) with new black bolts and valves, and with German Diamonds center caps. NOTE: THIS CAR DOES NOT SCRAPE even if you have 4 big adults onboard and trunk full of beer! ;) Also hardtop and another wheel setup (E36 original) for winter storing is included. The car hasn't got any winter km on it. No rust. Runs with E85 Ethanol.

Interested? Please place your best offer.
