Hello Chaps,
As with my Mazda also listed I have my E46 323 coupe up for sale.
I bought this a few weeks ago with the intention of getting it up and on the road and using it to run out to the ring, a perfectly capable car and very comfy for the long ride down there. However after evaluating everything sat in my workshop, on the drive, in the street and in the garage I have concluded that I own too much at the minute and need to thin it down a bit so this is for sale.
I will try and give a brief run down of the car, this is I believe the 2.5 straight 6, with a inlet manifold modification it would be on par with the 328, however this will have to be researched by the prospective buyer.
323CI Coupe in dark blue.
Manual
Cream Leather
LED rear light conversion (with no lights on the dash)
Depo smoked front indicators
Tonnes of bills for recent work
Cruise control
Electric memory seats
Reverse sensors
Now the car does have a problem, maybe a simple one but one I just do not have time for.
When I bought the car the speedo was broken, the ABS, TC, Brake System light was all on. I went and bought two new rear ABS sensors at £57 each! and went about fitting these. The speedo does now work and the Brake System light went off but the ABS and TC light are still on. This leaves two options as far as I can tell, the two front ABS sensors which can be picked up from ebay for a fair price or the ABS control module (which is included). Why don't I fit this myself, quite simply because I do not have the time.
The car does also have a few other faults.
Drivers door unlocks as and when it wants, some times it will unlock, others it wont, actuator probably needs a clean.
Chip in windscreen, unsure if it is MOT'able or not.
Few scrapes here and there.
Damaged kidney grill on passengers side
Drivers side headlight needs to be split and resealed as it is full of condensation.
High mileage at 175K
The car does drive well, pulls strong, stops as it should, starts on the button and sounds very well. There are no driving faults that I can report of.
All in all it would make an ideal, cheap posh daily for someone.
As it stands, with the two new sensors, LED lights, Depo sides and ABS module I would ideally be looking for £700 which I think is fair but I am open to offers.
