The BMW E36 was the third-generation range of the BMW 3-Series compact executive car. Manufactured from 1990 to 2000, the initial models were four-door saloons, and were joined by the coupé, convertible, estate and hatchback body styles in later years. The 318i utilised the 1,796cc, M43B18 four-cylinder petrol engine, a fuel-injected unit that was rated at 115bhp and 124lb ft of torque when new.

This nicely unmolested 1999 318i Convertible is finished in its attractive original colour scheme of Titan Silver with Black hide upholstery. Remarkably, it has had just three owners from new and covered just over 88,000 miles. It left the factory as a very well-specified example, notably with the M Sport styling kit, which really enhances the E36’s natural shape and adds a hint of muscle. Other features include M Sport suspension, an M leather steering wheel, white indicator lenses, electric windows, an automatically-dimming interior mirror, a warning triangle and first-aid kit, the BMW Business RDS radio, provision for a six-CD changer, automatic air-conditioning, a manually-adjustable steering column and BMW LA double-spoke wheels.

Of all the owners, it is the third and current registered keeper who has particularly cherished the BMW, having owned it since 2001. It was kept in continuous use up to 2015, after which it was placed into storage, hence its outstanding state of preservation. As can be seen from the photographs, both the exterior and interior of the car are in lovely order, with the leather upholstery just beginning to acquire a very attractive light patina. It is very rare nowadays to find an E36 as well-preserved as this.
