BMW 325 328i Sport 1998

Allmän beskrivning : Model History

The E36 3-Series was sold from 1991 to 1999. It was the successor to the E30 and was replaced by the E46 3-Series in 1998. This third generation of 3-Series was a very popular one. Its new design featured improved aerodynamics and featured the “Z-axle” multilink rear suspension, which had been proven in the Z1.

Although larger and heavier than the E30 – due to more active safety features being fitted – The E36 boasted a perfect 50:50 weight distribution; this was achieved by relocating the engine further back.

The 328i Sport was released in 1996. The two-door rear-wheel drive coupé was fitted with BMW’s sublime M52 2.8-litre straight-six engine. Like the M3, the Sport was developed in conjunction with BMW's high performance M Division. It boasted aerodynamic M body styling, M-tuned sports suspension, 17-inch BBS rims, twin exhaust tailpipes, and sports seats.

Exterior

This low mileage 328i Sport presents immaculately in gleaming Arctic Silver Metallic, a rarely specified colour with a subtle ice blue tint depending on the light. This one has clearly been cherished by each of its keepers as every aspect of the car is exceptional – in fact it’s hard to believe it’s actually 25 years old! The paintwork retains a deep and even shine with no scratches, dents, or off-colour panels. At the front end there are almost no stone chips to report and the lights are crystal-clear. Even finer details such as the window rubbers, door seals, rubbing strips, and badges appear as-new throughout. Undoubtedly one of the cleanest E36s we’ve seen here at 4 Star, looking every bit the low mileage of just 52k.

Interior

Opening the door you’re presented with a time-warp ‘90s interior boasting full leather upholstery and automatic air con. Sitting inside, the deeply bolstered sports seats still feel textured and soft, the leather remaining in excellent condition with no damage or wear to speak of. Other commonly worn items such as the steering wheel and armrest also show few signs of use. The cabin is lifted further with glossy burr walnut trim, again all pristine and free from any lacquer damage. All the switchgear remains feeling solid to operate and everything works as it should. In the footwells you’ll find tailored BMW overmats, and in the rear the seats look brand new. The boot area is equally clean with no marks or stains on the carpet; the BMW toolkit is 100% complete and even the BMW first aid kit is still unopened in its original packaging.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION

A real treat for the enthusiast, the engine bay is exceptionally clean and with absolutely no signs of any damage, corrosion, or previous poor repair. The plastic components look remarkably fresh and the only upgrade over standard is a K&N performance induction kit; the original air box is included with the car and could easily be re-fitted should the new keeper wish. The wonderful 2.8-litre M52 straight-six has been well maintained throughout its life and was most recently serviced at BMW in April 2021 at 50,527 miles.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES

The 328i Sport’s stunning two-piece rims look incredible. Previously refurbished at great expense they are entirely kerb-free, and even the centre badges look new. They are wrapped in a matching set of Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tyres, all with at least 5mm of tread left. The brakes have also been checked and remain in fine operational condition.

History File

This magnificent example was first registered in March 1998. The accompanying History File comprises the original document wallet with all owners manuals, a raft of invoices including the original bill of sale, old MOT certificates, a fresh HPI check, an original sales brochure and price list, multiple spare keys, and the service book that’s stamped at the following mileages: 9,884 – 19,516 – 30,229 – 38,156 – 47,516 – 49,800 – and most recently at 50,527 miles.

om BMW
Bayerische Motoren Werke, allmänt känt som BMW, har en rik historia som sträcker sig tillbaka till grundandet 1916. Ursprungligen etablerat som en flygmotortillverkare under första världskriget, ställdes BMW inför restriktioner när det gällde flygplansproduktion efter kriget. Som svar på detta skiftade företaget 1923 fokus till motorcykeltillverkning, vilket markerade början av deras deltagande inom bilindustrin. Därefter inträdde BMW i bilvärlden 1928 genom att producera DIXI, i huvudsak en licensierad version av Austin 7 från Austin Motor Company.

Under 1930-talet började BMW etablera sig som tillverkare av eleganta och högpresterande fordon. En framstående modell från denna tid är BMW 327, som introducerades 1937. 327 fanns tillgänglig som både coupé och cabriolet och visade företagets engagemang för lyx och stil. Dessutom nådde BMW framgångar inom sportbilsracing under denna period, särskilt med modellen BMW 328. BMW tävlade med 328 i olika racingevenemang, inklusive det prestigefyllda Mille Miglia, där företaget introducerade flera aerodynamiska specialmodeller.

Efterkrigstiden var utmanande för BMW, och företaget stod inför ekonomiska svårigheter som nästan ledde till konkurs. Trots detta lyckades BMW återhämta sig och återuppbygga sig, och blev så småningom en av de ledande premiumvarumärkena globalt.

När 1960-talet rullade in befäste BMW ytterligare sitt rykte som tillverkare av sportiga och lyxiga fordon. År 1968 introducerades BMW 2002 och markerade födelsen av "New Class" av kompakta, sportiga sedaner. 2002 blev populär för sitt smidiga hantering och prestanda och lade grunden för BMW:s sportiga image.

I och med 1970-talet utvidgade BMW sitt sortiment med introduktionen av plattformen E9, som inkluderade den ikoniska BMW 3.0 CS-coupén. E9-serien visade BMW:s engagemang för att kombinera prestanda och lyx. År 1972 gjorde M1, BMW:s första mittmotordrivna sportbil, sin debut. M1 utvecklades ursprungligen som en tävlingsbil men blev senare också en bil för allmän väg. M1 lade grunden för BMW:s högpresterande M-serie.

Mot slutet av 1970-talet introducerades BMW E24 6-serien och erbjöd en kombination av lyx och prestanda. 6-serien inkluderade modeller som 630CS, 633CSi och 635CSi och blev en symbol för sofistikering och körglädje.

Genom dessa milstolpar och en satsning på innovation och prestanda har BMW utvecklats till en gigant inom bilindustrin och behåller sin status som ett av de ledande premiumvarumärkena globalt.
