Year: 1976 Make: BMW Model: 3.0 Si Registration: OVL 749P Chassis No: 3270899 Odometer: 70,067 The BMW 3.0 Si represents the height of BMW’s early executive-sport saloon philosophy, blending understated luxury with genuinely engaging performance.
Part of the E3 ‘New Six’ line-up introduced in the late 1960s, the 3.0 Si refined the formula that helped establish BMW as a global benchmark for driver-focused saloons.
Under its bonnet sits a 3.0 litre in-line six engine from BMW’s revered M30 family.
The fuel-injected ‘S’ variant produced around 200bhp, delivering smooth, turbine-like power through either a four-speed manual or a three-speed automatic transmission.
Power delivery is linear and confidence-inspiring, making the car feel athletic despite its executive proportions.
Visually, the 3.0 Si is restrained yet purposeful.
Its upright kidney grille, quad round headlights, slim pillars, and crisp body lines give it a timeless elegance.
Chrome accents and subtle badging underscore...
