Registration - M3 EOVChassis No - WBSBG92000EA89525M.O.T - July 2024Odometer - 109,000 This very tidy Evo certainly looks the part, its Estoril metallic paintwork contrasting nicely with the grey Alcantara interior trim and shiny BMW Motorsport alloy wheels. It has had a total of just seven keepers to date, the most recent of whom has retained the car since July 2017. It was apparently serviced last month, and other recent maintenance has included: refurbishment of the engine’s VANOS system; replacement of the cam cover gasket; the installation of a new Milltek exhaust system; new front brake discs and pads and fresh rear calipers and pads; refurbishment of the Fulda-shod wheels. The vendor presently grades the six-speed manual transmission as ‘excellent’, the six-cylinder engine, two-door bodywork and upholstery as ‘good’, and the paintwork as ‘average’. He is now offering the BMW complete with: engine strut brace; sunroof, Sony CD player and 10-stack autochanger; spare wheel and tyre; full tool kit; first aid kit; and a pair of A4 folders covering the car’s history, plus a current MOT valid into July of next year. The odometer presently registers c.109,000 miles The third generation of BMW’s all-conquering 3 Series model (code name E36) was launched to much acclaim in October 1990. It was penned by Pinky Lai and Boyke Boyer who, as its silhouette suggests, were intent on optimising the newcomer’s aerodynamics. The model was ultimately produced in saloon, hatchback, coupe, convertible and estate guises, and with a choice of engines ranging from 1.6 to 3.2 litres. The M3 variant was offered from 1992 to 1999, the desirable Evolution development of which was launched at the 1995 Frankfurt Salon and featured a larger 3.2-litre engine of advanced specification, that was coupled to a six-speed Getrag gearbox. The E36 range was supplanted by the E46 in the year 2000. In summary:An eye-catching example of the relatively rare Evo variantThe subject of considerable recent maintenanceComes with Milltek exhaust, sunroof, Sony CD system and MOT

Registration- DGS 383XChassis No - WF0CXXGAECBR03631M.O.T. - September 2024Odometer - 90,000 Big-engined Capris are all the rage these days, but ‘DGS 383X’ takes the scene to a whole new level. What started life as an unassuming blue 3.0S is now an immaculate white specimen sporting beefy X-pack arches that shield wide-rim RS wheels shod with 225/50 R15 Yokohama tyres. Inside, the rear seat has been removed and a full FIA Safety Devices roll cage installed along with bucket seats, Securon harnesses, carbonfibre door cards and many other mods aimed at fast road or on-track driving. The engine has apparently recently been rebuilt and, although we’re not party to the full specification, a quick peek under the bonnet reveals a trio of carburettors – a sturdy strut brace is also evident. The vendor presently regards the V6 engine, five-speed manual transmission, modified bodywork, paintwork and interior trim as all being in ‘excellent’ order. The Capri is now on offer complete with lots of receipts and old MOTS that evidently support the indicated mileage of 91,421, plus a current MOT valid for the next 12 months. Ford’s Capri was launched at the 1969 Brussels Salon. The fastback coupe was intended to do for Europe what the Mustang had done for the USA. The newcomer was initially offered with a generous choice of four-cylinder engines, but by September they’d been joined by the 136bhp, 3-litre V6 Essex unit. Worthwhile improvements to the model came with the MKII versions of 1974 and the quadruple headlamp MKIII cars introduced in 1978. The 3.0S version was immortalised in the TV Series ‘The Professionals’ and a pair of cars from that show recently fetched £93,375 each! In summary:A tastefully much-modified example for use on road or trackNine-keepers and a warranted 91,421 miles from newComes with lots of paperwork and a fresh 12 months’ of MOT
