Comments from the seller

Looking for your first car? Then this car is perfect for you! This 1996 BMW 3 Series 328i E36 Auto stands out in a crowd. Watch the heads turn as you cruise the streets in this 1996 BMW 3 Series convertible. 95000 km on the clock only. The car has had three owners from new, with the last owner having bought the car in 2003. I purchased the car approximately 6 months ago, however my circumstances have changed and I now need to sell the car. This car isn't just about luxury and comfort, check out these safety features: - Driver airbag - ABS brakes OTHER FEATURES: This 1996 BMW 3 Series 328i E36 Auto has air conditioning, alloy wheels, cruise control and central locking. Front fog lights. Of note with this vehicle the automatic roof was failing, so the roof has been converted to a fully manual mechanism using genuine BMW parts.
