**Dropped price for r3v $2500**
Hey guys due to a new addition of twins to my family I am selling my 89 325i. It has been my daily for the last year and has treated me well. I would like to try sell it on here prior to putting it on Craigslist. I will be spending the next couple of days getting it into sale form. Once it is detailed and looking pretty I will take more pics and post them.I have receipts back to 2008 detailing lots of work done to it. I will detail that when I get a chance just throwing this out there to get it out on the market. I dont need to sell it but it isnt very practical for us to have a 3rd car. I will try to detail honestly the pros and cons about the car as best I know it so bear with me.
Here is a little bit about the car.
89 325i clean title in hand
auto
new tags in April
240k on the odo I have driven mostly highway mile from sw to ne portland
Royal Blau metallic with gray cloth comfort interior
Exterior has some issues but the paint is not fading and looks great cleaned up. That being said its not perfect. It does have some small scratches. A couple of small dings on the hood and trunk lid that most people wont even see unless they are really looking for them. there are normal chips on the front end for being driven 240k. There is a few small chip on the front passenger fend where the valance and fender meet. PO had to put on the should and has a bigger drop than expected and took the front valance lip off and the fender and valance met and chipped. That being said there is no lip on it now but thanks to another R3V member I should have one in my hands prior to sale. this also caused the front bumper to also be a little askew. I have havent had time to look into it to see what needs to be done to straighten it out. the rear is also a little off front what looks like a bump with something on the corner. there is a small white mark on the bumper there on the passenger side. all in all the exterior is in great shape for its age and mileage.
Interior
The interior is in great shape. The dash has no cracks. There is wear on the driver seat which is to be expected of a cloth seat with 240k on it. There are what look to be 2 small burn marks on the rear seat. I will take photos of all this once I get a chance. There are a few thing that need some work on the interior, the fog light button recently stuck on and the driver side window switch either needs cleaned or replaced. The window goes down great and will close but need to push hard to make it go up. the digital clock has a normal have obstructed view but is still readable. Has a Alpine Cd player in it that works great. Over all it is super clean inside.
Engine and drivetrain.
The engine runs strong and has been serviced on time and well maintained. have receipts of work done back to 2008. There is a small whine from the diff at highway speeds. It hasnt gotten worse since I have owned it. The Tranny shifts the way it should. The AC is NOT hooked up and according to the receipts it hasnt been for awhile, so I can speak as to functionallity of the AC. It could probably use a tune up, but it breezed through emissions with no issues. I recently put new Bilstein sport shocks with upper bushings on it at Vintage European (thanks Steven). They have less than 5k on them. There is a small oil leak coming from the oil pan gasket. overall I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere.
Misc.
The passenger Door lock doesnt like to unlock sometimes. The other locks work fine. There are two small chips in the windshield. The tires have good tread on them but probably need rotated.
Sorry bout the novel here just like to upfront when selling a car. This car is a great little 325i that in the right hands will be a great car for a long time.
I will post pics as I get them over the next couple of days. Thanks for looking and PM with any other questions you might have. Once It is detailed and serviced I will be posting this on CL.
