Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1996 BMW M3 Coupe in Estoril Blue is a rare, unmolested example with a lot of history and the desirable 6-speed manual transmission. It has a new clutch and good interior, but requires a battery, has an expired MOT, and minor cosmetic issues like slight corrosion and leaks, indicating it needs some recommissioning.
Condition
6
The car is described as a good example with a lot of history, but it has been standing for 2 years and currently needs a battery and has no MOT. There is a slight exhaust blow and a slight oil leak. There are also a couple of patches of slight corrosion on the paintwork. However, the interior is in good condition for its age and the clutch is new.
