Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1996 BMW 316i is a 'barn find' project car with one previous owner. It comes with some service history but requires recommissioning and a V5C application, making it suitable for someone willing to invest time and effort.

Condition
3
The car is described as a 'barn find' and is being sold as a project for recommissioning. The last MoT expired in 2019, suggesting it has been out of use for some time. There is no V5C, indicating additional administrative work is needed. This points to several mechanical or cosmetic issues needing substantial reconditioning.
