New toy after selling the Alpina




She's a manual in carbon black and imola interior with every option

Collection next week
 
That's a great car with great colour combo and great engine the seats are so comfy too. I just sold my Z4 last week and got my 4th E46 there brilliant cars no more spine shattering rides to work over bumps. M3 is a beast with limited slip differential. I sold my z4 and bought a grey facelift still had a £1000 change and a car full of options that make the z4 look bad really its not a luxury model bmw. Different cars though E46 is a fast cruiser and Z4 is a weekend drivers car really not a daily like I was using it for. I've owned E46's the last 10yrs love them easy to maintain and work on too. I will buy another Z4 next year and keep as a 2nd car E46 for daily

Looks nice

I looked at a couple of SMG cars bit glad I went for the manual

It's only got 75k it was hard trying to find a lowish mileage manual car. It's got harman kardon sat nav Bluetooth electric everything and genuine BMW 19 csl alloys

It's got the cheaper tax by a week so 295!for the year
 
I would love to see what it looks like if the wheels were standard colour.

I'm sure it would look much nicer, same with the exhausts.

Nice looking car though. I still have a soft spot for the E46 M3's
 
Same here - but I would remove the tint from the rear windows as well to get it back to OEM.

have you tried this before bloody nightmare I can tell you and if you scrape the red lines to hard say good bye to your rear demister like what happened to mine when removing it. The film is easy to remove its getting all the glue off you will swear a lot took me about 2 months to get it all done each weekend id have another blast with the soapy water and scraper. even the professional tint place didn't want to do the job he said I could tint about 5 cars in the time it would take me to move them its just not worth his time or money.
 
Do you think the rear window is tinted as well? I did not see the picture. Would be ashame if it was.

I was talking about the side windows here.

I have never tried it though - I would try a hair dryer I guess. I did hear stories about police forcing people to remove the tints from the front side windows before they were allowed to continue.
 
When i was 19 I had a Civic type R EP3 and had to remove my rear tints, the film just pulls straight off and i used to white spirits to remove the glue. Very easy tbh

is this a joke? why would the rear quarter window be tinted and not the rear window itself. suing aheat just lifts the film easier you stil have to remove the glue which is the frustrating part and takes patience. Its one of those jobs can be dine in 40 mins putiong on but removing is a ball ache

I had 20% tints all the way around on my last bmw you would have hated that I also had a front 9 inch license plate with tiny writing and red halo angle lights which wasn't legal my bad. Yes I live in Birmingham no the car wasn't used in drive by's....lol
