B3 3.0 Cabrio...
Right all, after getting my B3 3.2 touring back on the road, I have been itching to drive it all the time. Unfortunately, doing 20k every year isn't the best idea in such a rare car, so I decided to look for a D3. After looking around for some time, I found a re-bodied B3 3.0 Cabrio for sale nearby to where I work.
So I went to see it for interest and somehow it ended up on my driveway. I think it was a bit of "oooooh... Nice!" and "This needs saving..." that tempted me into it, and as it was cheap, I had to pick it up.
So here she is. She is originally a 320i Auto in Samoa Blue, rare colour, and has a Navy Blue interior, and Roof. The roof was a bit dodgy but I can work with that as fundamentally, it works. Came with a Colour Coded Hard Top as well.
The seller was a lovely guy, really cared for it, but was a Porsche Lover and had the last car stolen. Hence the hankering for another, this one had to go and also, the car was becoming a storage place instead of being a car.
Anyway, here are the sale pics. Some updates will follow in the New Year when I will have more time to deal with the issues that I have acquired!
These are the pics from the Advert!

I went to see this car, and made an offer but couldn't drive it as the hood got stuck when he tried to open, I believe he sold it later in the day, he told me it was just a fuse that had blown, I did wonder if anyone on here got it.
Well done Shaziman.
