BMW E46 330i 6 speed

[Leon]

Good Day

So on Saterday a picked up my BMW E46 330i
2003 Model, 120,000.00 km on the clock
6 Speed Manual
I know the wood interior is not to everybody's liking, but i like it
And I really love those seats
FSH, and everything stock standard
And that is the way it is going to stay

I absolutely love this car!!

Congrats Leon, it looks very clean.

I like your plan to keep her stock, though some clear indicators (OEM) all round would look great.

Well I think you should at least consider removing the front number plate holder, fit clears all round and paint the lowest part of the rear bumper body colour....it really cleans up the look of TiAg's.

And congrats.


(Oh and remove the dealer advertising in the back window.)

 

[Leon]

Thanks for all the kind words

I will definitely fit clear indicators , OEM of course
Dealer name will be removed

Won't be selling this car anytime soon :rollsmile:

Congratulations Leon!

Straight 6 howl makes up for ANY fuel consumption losses against a diesel.
And the 330i can be very economical if driven sensibly.

I have personally witnessed 6.2L/100 average on a long run.

BTW - is that nappa leather?

.......and i like the amber :fencelook:

Chris, I got 6.2l/100 on a trip to Nellspruit and back, actually took a picture of it.
Going to Uvongo in 2011, I got 6.8l/100 but my foot was "heavy" the last 170kms of the trip... :rollsmile:

 

[Leon]

I got 7.1 this morning on my way to work, very light footed, which is very hard to do! hehe

I have no idea what leather it is, where can i find out?
But i like it! :rollsmile:

I liked the diesel, but it doesn't come close to the 330i
:inlove:

Looks really clean.

You are going to love your time with it, bought mine last year and still enjoying every second of it.

Congrats bud :thumbs:

PS: Remove CDV + add clutch stop, trust me, it's better for your car and you will enjoy the shifting more.

Nappa is softer/thinner and smoother. Easily becomes shiny.

The regular leather in the e46 has a grain pattern much coarser than the nappa. I assume Nappa was only available in the individual. But then i have also seem individuals without nappa, so i dont know:dunno:

 

[Leon]

Then it must be Nappa
My 320d Leather was hard
This is smooth and soft

Congrats and yes the fastest colour and great spec. :thumbs: Looks awesome. I still miss my e46 330i 6-speed...
Ok that feeling has passed. Just thought of her replacement. :rollsmile:
