BMW 323 Ci Cabriolet E46 — 2000

• Mechanical condition

  The silky smooth straight-six with 170 hp does its job well and starts easily, running smoothly and steadily but with power when needed. During a shorter test drive on minor country roads, everything was found to function well, such as steering, clutch, gearbox, road holding and brakes. A comfortable and user-friendly cabriolet from Bavaria. Not inspected on a lift, but what could be seen looked good. No remarks at the vehicle inspections.

• Interior condition

  Interior and upholstery in good original condition with some patina. Good comfort in the seats with some wear and a repair to the backrest on the driver's seat. Steering wheel, controls, dashboard and gauges in good condition. All electrical functions appear to work and the AC has been recently serviced and cools nicely. Good luggage compartment, incomplete tool kit. The original sound system has been replaced with a modern installation featuring Bluetooth, telephone, navigation and reversing camera. Works well.

• Exterior condition

  Fine and well-preserved paintwork in Orient Blue metallic (colour code 317). A classic colour that appears almost black but which gleams increasingly blue in sunlight. Good used condition throughout and in detail with mild patina consistent with age and mileage. Trim, badges and lighting details are in good condition. The rear lights appear to be newer. The wheels show some wear and light scratching. Good Hankook tyres. The engine bay is in good condition. Good and tight hood with fine electric function.

• General condition

  With great strides, this 323 is making its way into the classic and enthusiast segment. With its fine and acclaimed engine as well as classic colour combination, it is an excellent representative of the small premium cars around the millennium. A dream car for many at that time and sought-after as an enthusiast vehicle today. Here in a ready-to-drive and sprightly example that is largely in original specification with a few details that need attention.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .

• At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
• During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
