Sam87 Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 (edited) Hello everyone. I've been meaning to post some pic's of my car but its hard finding the time to do it. This is my Estoril blue e46 330cd, 6 speed manual. I've had this car for nearly 2 years now and i have spent quite a bit of money on the car modding it but now i'm in two minds if i should keep it or sell it. It was meant to be my daily car but since i changed jobs its parked up most of the time. I use it once or twice a week. It's quite hard to find an e46 330cd in this colour combo. Its running 300bhp and its very quick for a diesel. The car has had a lot of work done to it and most have been done recently....all suspension is new....., coilovers.......every bush has been changed...new brakes including 4 new calipers...four new tyres. new genuine bmw thermostat......, full egr delete...glow plugs....glow plugs control unit...... 3 inch custom exhaust, sounds really nice and no one believes me when i say it's a diesel.....hybrid turbo.....Bigger intercooler....custom remap. Outside Genuine M3 mirrors...CSL bootlid blended in.....6 series 19's alloy wheels painted silver grey....all four arches have been flared.... colour coded front grills.....rear diffuser painted gloss black....Front number plate removed... Upgraged the xenon headlamp bulbs, led number plate lights.... led side lights... the brakes have been painted yellow with silver discs and silver brake back plates Interior Individual heated leather seats....they are not cream, they are a bit brighter than that and the center of the seats are different, like small squares pressed in the leather. I recently painted the seats the original colour because i messed them up... i used some strong cleaning product that wasnt meant to clean the leather seats with and it took the paint off the seats in some areas and made the seats look like the car had done a million miles lol New gear knob Chrome rings in the cluster, same as 330ci TV / DVD / Sat Nav headunit Anyways enough talking.... Here's some pic's.... Well lot's of pics My old saloon 330d 6 speed manual with read leather interior..... this was a great car..... i regretted selling this that's why i went and bought another one but this time i went for a coupe This is my pride and joy e46 m3.... I've had it for 9 years now and it's done 27k Edited December 9, 2017 by Sam87 The_Judge_, MICK 330, Markxr and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momo Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 27k on the M3? Drive it more!! Is that a wrap on it or full respray? Both very nice.. If you don't need the 330Cd then you might as well sell it. But if you dont want to use the M3 much then keep the derv.. I'd keep both and drive more!

Sam87 Posted December 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 (edited) Thank you The m3 has been wrapped including the door shuts by Yannimize..... To be honest the last few years the m3 has been used less and less.... Its done about 200 miles in 2 years . It was oem when i bought it and then after 2 years i was bored so i done all the mods but now i'm thinking of going back to oem. That's why i'm in 2 minds if i should keep the 330 or sell it because i drive another car for work now and its a shame to have a car doing nothing. Haha there is no price.... I have 5 people that are in line to buy it and the first one is my friend that bought my old 330d. I doubt it will go for sale online.

Sam87 Posted December 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) Changing the glow plugs, glow plug control unit, full egr delete, coolant change, genuine thermostat, full service, oil breather, brake fluid change, all new vacuum hoses, complete new lower arms, new adjustable drop links, change the antiroll bar with the antiroll bar bushes and probably other things that I can't think off at the moment.
