My lil’ saloon was born in Bavaria, 46 years ago this day. (5/11/1976)

No longer Polaris, nor automatic, my original ultimate driving machine is now far from original, but it’s brought me so many miles of smiles…

Freude am Fahren indeed.

E46 still looks sleek. Admittedly by today's standards it is a very small car….

Nice E36! Keep it running man! One of the best looking sedans out there and one of the best designed cars from the 90s. Take care of it and follow proper maintenance it will last for a long, long time!

Beautiful Alpina there Orjan! Please tell us some more details. How long have you owned it? Do you drive it as a daily or special occasions only?

Thank you Mani59

It's car #178 of 359 produced. First registered in Germany in july 1994. First owner had it until 2004 (at 75000km), and then it was in a private collection until 2016 when it was imported to Norway by a BMW enthusiast. I bought it early in 2017 with 92500km on it. I use it almost daily in summertime, and now it has almost 113000km on it - it is a wonderful driving machine.

My twin, albeit an M52TUB25, 51k miles. MT 5 speed
It responded really well to mods, like shark injector, exhaust, tower brace, AFE filter
Fun light car
(That M54 is a great engine; have it in an e46)

Cool 2001 325i

My 2001 325i...the BMW that started a chain reaction in our driveway. It has 348,000mi and driven regularly. Nine cars and three motorcycles later...even my tools speak German. Now I have to sell three or four cars and one motorcycle...then I can bring a "new" BMW home.

your car looks great esp considering the mileage…. Well done !

First BMW , e46 330i zsp 5 speed is still a keeper. Ordered car in May 2002. Dinan 3 sublime drive. 17k miles.
Sold 2013 e92 M zcp 6 speed (ordered car but not a keeper) to add another keeper four door… G80 MT. Will keep this one thru retirement.

You should get something more rare
