Dreaming of the joy of rear-wheel drive, genuine German design and a car that starts conversations at the petrol station? Here it is: BMW 316i Sedan (2003), with a reasonable 203,000 km on the clock!

This gift to the world from Munich combines classic driving feel with a suitable amount of weekend project work. The mechanical and electrical systems work like a Swiss watch – or at least like a well-maintained Bavarian engine. The air conditioning blows, the seats heat up and the electric windows hum as they should.

Why this particular car?

• Mechanics 10/10: The engine and drivetrain perform flawlessly. This will reliably take you from A to B.

• Comforts in order: The engine block heater and cabin socket keep you warm in winter, and the air conditioning keeps you cool in summer. The heated seats take care of your comfort.

• Style first: Two sets of wheels are included. In summer, the car runs on smart alloy wheels, perfect for cruising around town.

In the interests of openness – Patina and a little work:

As this is a classic over 20 years old, the car has acquired some signs of life:

• Exterior: The wheel arches show signs of age (read: rust and a few dents). These give the car battle scars and attitude!

• The inspector’s love letter: The car failed its inspection for two reasons: the handbrake needs adjustment/service, and there is a spot on the underside requiring hot metal (welding is needed).

Who is it suitable for?

This is the perfect car for a hobbyist who can weld, a project-hungry first-time driver or anyone who knows how to use an angle grinder and a welding torch. With a little effort and a welding rod, you can turn this into a long-lasting and stylish daily driver ready for its next inspection!

The car will be sold by auction to the highest bidder. Bid for it and get your project gloves out – this classic deserves a new life on the road!

On the road: The mechanics work; in occasional situations there is a very slight knock from the front end when turning the steering wheel.
The air conditioning blows hot and cold, and the heated seats work. The electric windows and mirrors work. The only faults are cosmetic issues and the reasons for the inspection failure.
