Description

2005 BMW 330CD SE Cabriolet (E46)

Attractive and rare to find face-lift 3.0 diesel variant in comfortable SE spec with 6-speed manual 'box showing just 79,891 miles;  with our careful lady owner since 2014

Supplied new by BMW Wellsway of Bath in August 2005 this later model facelift E46 generation of 3-series comes to us in rare to find and desirable 330CD guise and in SE specification.

Finished in Monaco Blue Metallic, with matching dark Blue Mohair hood, the car sits on its original 17” five-spoke alloy wheels and looks well with very good paint and bodywork for its age and mileage of just 79,891.

Under the bonnet, we find the 3.0-litre M57TUD30 straight-six turbocharged diesel engine which develops 201Bhp and a whopping 410NM of torque driving the rear wheels here via six-speed ZF S6-53 transmission which offers considerable performance yet surprisingly efficient fuel economy – the best of both worlds?

Inside the cabin, we find comfortable light grey SE spec leather seats with electric adjustment and driver 3-stage memory, automatic lights, multi-function steering wheel, cruise control, electric windows, fully automatic electric roof with heated rear screen, parking sensors, three-stage heated seats, tyre pressure monitoring, traction control, automatic digital climate control with AC and original BMW Business radio/CD player with brushed aluminium trim and black carpets.

This BMW has belonged to a former member of Brightwells staff for the past eight years and is therefore a car well known to us. She has had it maintained locally at Oldfields Garage in Leominster, bills, receipts and service records being available in the file. The full ownership history of the car is known (three former keepers) and the mileage is also known to be correct, the current owner purchasing it in 2014 at 47000 miles. All the original handbooks etc as supplied new are present, as are all the tools, the warning triangle, the BMW first aid kit (unopened) and the rear window even still carries the original BMW supplier's sticker! The service book records six stamps including PDI, the last at 72,818 miles in August 2019.

In addition, we also find a selection of invoices for routine maintenance and parts including replacement front lower rear arm bushes in July 2021, a new battery in November 2021, new rear shocks in June 2018 and exchange brake calliper in June 2017 along with a BMW recall notice, BMW NMR data check, nine old MOTs plus the current valid until August 2022 with two advisories for rear tyre wear.

Finished in deep metallic Monaco blue it is equipped with full electric memory grey leather heated seats, cruise control, CD player, a new battery and the hood is fully working and in good condition.

The 330CD is an extremely rare variant of the 3 series cabriolet, particularly with a manual gearbox, being a fully equipped top of the range model yet with the softer, more comfortable SE suspension. In all her years of ownership, the owner tells us she has never encountered a similar specification car. The strong, three-litre straight-six pulls very high gearing, facilitating 47/48mpg on a run and we understand that this is a chain cam engine, obviating the need for cambelt changes. 

Ready to be enjoyed, this unusual 330CD spec Cabriolet offers a great mix of performance with 40mpg+ economy with good looks and nice mileage. A rare opportunity to purchase an unusual and original BMW convertible that has never been abused , just in time for Summer!
