Mate, if there was any justice in the world, which there isn’t, you should have been a UA-cam millionaire by now! Know this: I would not still be a E60 M5 owner, had it not been for you and your channel! Clouds will clear up in a while, and driving the mint E46 is no disaster. 🙂
Interesting. I will have to follow along. I just purchased a somewhat similar car here in the US. It seems like BMW produced a special e46 spec for each market. Mine is a North America only limited edition 2004 330i ZHP. I only just learned the ZHP existed as I was shopping for an e46 330 (looking at any spec). I won't bore you with all of the details (lots of videos on UA-cam) but the ZHP is a high performance version w bigger cams, 300 more rpm limit and a bunch of real M mods. Sort of a factory tuner version of the E46. Maybe the only time in history that America got the best version of a BMW. I was lucky enough to find one that just needs a little love and care for a great price. :)
Love this era, great choice! Also like your budget (but not cheaping out) whilst wisely maintaining it. That is you to a tee pal, why I like your channel!
What a find!😮 I'm a little jealous to be honest, I can't even imagine how it must be to live in a country where it's possible to find a car like that for a good price. Congrats!
Nice car, I bought an E39 Aegean edition 530i with white lotus leather about 10 years ago and I still have it, never want to sell it. The 3.0 straight six's are such a good all rounder, good performance, smooth, reliable and not horrendous on fuel .
2011 128i owner. Sad the other one went away.. love the E46 though! Was what I originally wanted as a coupe. Here in the US they are plenty but still hard to find ones not clapped or just in rough condition.. 128i are currently cheaper as well here but as the E46 dries up the 1 series is gaining popularity. My 128 being a decade newer is also nice. Mine is a base with minimal tech for a luxury car. No sun roof! No I drive. Also the 50/50 weight distribution of the 1 series is a huge plus! But looks, the E46 all day! Love the black dent guards all around! I have a 2008 Corolla in grey with those on the sides! Love those on cars!
Love the car mate, I’m a fellow Christchurch BMW fan currently with an e53 x5 but keeping my eye out for an e46 touring 330i can’t wait to see the videos to come!
It’s a E46 🤷🏽♂️ another car too played out on UA-cam as I stated on another video cars like this have been done so much engine maintenance and every video you can think of UA-cam won’t push these videos anymore it’s well played out you have many cars others have done over and over and this will crash your channel not improve it this is friendly advise and I really hope you see it like this just every car you are doing what others have done already

Lovely example. I wish you would include a few more shots of the car from different angles, still an absolutely great video.

Wooow what a find! 😮
Nice one mate, car looks mint for its age with good kms on it too. Better yet, you sound a lot more positive in this last vid. Top stuff.
Nice. The 130i is a hard sell because they’re kind of a forgotten car. There isn’t a following (of scene tax) like say the R32.

mtech-1 is so good looking imo
BMWs- What's the Story? If you want to spend your money on a "MONEY PIT", go ahead... You've been warned...
