Description from the seller
GENERAL
An exceptionally original BMW 325i Cabriolet from the iconic E36 generation, built in 1994. This particular example shines with an extremely low and fully demonstrable mileage of only 48,054 kilometers from new. The car was originally delivered in France (Nationality code S813) to the first owner and has recently been brought to the Netherlands via the second French owner.
The legendary E36 Cabriolet is known for its timeless design with the tight, uninterrupted beltline when the top is up. This model is powered by the renowned 2.5-liter M50 inline-six engine with 24 valves, delivering 192 hp. Coupled to a comfortable automatic transmission and equipped with a factory original 25% limited-slip differential (Option S209), this “Youngtimer” offers a perfect balance between sporty performance and relaxed cruising. The car is on Dutch license plates and has a valid APK (periodic vehicle inspection).
BODYWORK & PAINT
The bodywork is in pristine, original condition. The car is finished in the elegant factory color Arctic Silver Metallic. Very unique is that this BMW is still entirely in its first paint, which was recently officially verified and confirmed via a professional paint thickness measurement. The paint shows only the minimal, normal signs of wear consistent with the age of the car. The electrically operated black soft top is also in very good condition, and the body has, from the factory, the preparation for mounting a hardtop (Option S380).
TECHNICAL
Technically, this cabriolet is superbly maintained and in sound health. The 2,494cc six-cylinder engine runs very smoothly and delivers its full power of 192 hp without hesitation. The automatic transmission shifts smoothly. The full maintenance and inspection history has been documented since its delivery in 1994, supported by original invoices and inspection reports.
INTERIOR
The interior is in absolute top condition and remains fully original. The cockpit features the desirable manually adjustable leather sport seats (Option S481) in high-quality black leather, tastefully combined with a black headliner. The original details exude pure nostalgia from the 1990s, including the original Pioneer AM/FM radio-cassette player and the original factory stalk. Modern comfort options such as electric windows all around, cruise control, the extensive onboard computer V, and an icy cold, well-functioning air conditioning complete the driving experience.
DOCUMENTS
The full history of this BMW has been meticulously maintained and is fully traceable. All original onboard documents, including the filled service and maintenance booklet and various service invoices, are present. In addition, the car has both original keys including the functioning remote.
Mileage and maintenance are chronologically verifiable through the following registered steps:
