Mora B3S E46 saloon in Reading
Spotted today in Reading Gateway retail park, a stunning Mora B3S saloon with Champagne nappa, shining in the July sunshine.
#59 on the register, the only saloon in Mora, so a rare car indeed

Good find Metrics. Mora really suits an E46.
Doesn't it belong to a member here, or maybe that was a previous owner? :

Yes Mora is a fantastic colour.
The other thing that struck me seeing it against modern cars in the car park was proportions and presence. The car sat low on 18" wheels and had mudflaps. The car just looked so right. Call me old school but these older cars hark back to a time when BMW design was spot on.

Yes - that is my old car - M33 OKM
Nice to know it is still around, it dropped off the radar a few years ago.
