Exterior

Beautifully presented in striking and timeless Sterling Silver, this E30 M3 oozes 1980s motorsport pedigree with its iconic box-arched stance and purposeful lines, a direct link to its touring car origins. Fully repainted in recent years – in the correct and original colour – the finish is exceptionally clean throughout, with very few imperfections to note. The car is very well presented overall, and after a full detail and machine polish on arrival with us it’s hard to believe that she’s now 33 years old. With clear, unmarked headlights, arrow-straight flanks, and consistent panel gaps that highlight the precision of its build. The wheels have just been refurbished and new Toyo tyres were fitted all round last year.

Interior

Inside, the M3 presents very nicely. The cabin is trimmed in original black leather, which remains tidy throughout with only the lightest signs of use to the driver’s bolster in line with the mileage. The sports seats retain excellent shape and support, with tight stitching and clean surfaces that point to careful ownership. The dashboard is free from cracks, the switchgear operates with reassuring precision, and the instruments are clear with red needles. Carpets and headlining are in excellent condition, and the door cards show no signs of sagging or warping. The factory three-spoke M-Tech II steering wheel and dogleg gear knob are both in fine order, with just a touch of patina serving as a reminder of the car’s 1980s origins.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION

On the road, the E30 M3 delivers the analogue magic enthusiasts crave. The high-revving S14 engine rewards you for chasing the redline, while the razor-sharp chassis, quick steering, and balanced rear-wheel drive dynamics make every journey an event. It’s a car that feels alive at any speed — a true driver’s machine, presented here in one of the model’s most enduring and elegant shades. The car has just returned from a full inspection at our trusted classic car workshop and will come with a fresh 12-month MOT upon sale.
