This BMW E36/5 ti Compact got away, but there are more like it here.

This 2000 BMW 323ti is a German-market hatchback that was ordered new through the BMW Individual program and spent time in Poland before its acquisition and relocation to the United Kingdom by the selling dealer in August 2024. It is finished in Dakar Yellow II over black leather and cloth, and power is supplied by a 2.5-liter M52 inline-six mated to a five-speed manual transmission. The car was optioned with an Anthracite headliner, M-Technic bodywork, and aerodynamic side mirrors, while additional features include replica 17″ Style 24 wheels, lowering springs, heated front sport seats, power windows, and a Blaupunkt CD stereo. This E36/5 is now offered by the selling dealer in the United Kingdom with service records and Polish registration.
