The seller offers for sale this 1989 BMW 320i Cabriolet, powered by a 2.0-litre six-cylinder petrol engine, paired with an automatic transmission. The car was originally delivered new in the Netherlands and has remained on Dutch registration since its first admission. It is finished in its original Alpine White paintwork, combined with a red leather interior, a colour combination that gives this E30 a particularly stylish and increasingly rare appearance. The paintwork was recently professionally polished by a specialised car detailer, giving the original finish a deep shine. According to the seller, the car comes from a dedicated enthusiast and has always been treated with care.
The interior is trimmed in its original red leather and is well kept, matching the classic character of the car. The equipment list is generous for the period and includes original air conditioning, four electric windows, the rare original electric soft top, sports seats, M interior trim and the original controls and finishes. Some traces of use are present, as may be expected of a car of this age. The exterior is completed by original light alloy sports wheels, and the panel gaps of the doors, bonnet and boot lid are described by the seller as well fitting. The engine bay, boot area and door jambs are reported to be in a tidy and original state, details that are increasingly hard to find on E30 Cabriolets.
The car is supplied with its original Dutch registration, all original keys, full registration documentation and a consistent Dutch mileage report (RDW). The APK (Dutch periodic inspection) was recently renewed and is valid until 18 March 2027. For buyers outside the Netherlands, the seller can arrange export papers free of charge.
The E30 generation of the BMW 3 Series, built from 1982 to 1994, is widely regarded as one of the most iconic compact sports saloons of its era, and the factory-built Cabriolet, introduced in 1986, was BMW’s first full convertible of the model line, with a fully retractable hood and clean, uncluttered lines. The 320i uses BMW’s M20 six-cylinder engine, an engine celebrated for its smooth running and eager character, which suits the open-top driving experience particularly well. With values of well-kept, original E30 Cabriolets steadily rising, this Dutch-delivered example in a sought-after colour combination represents an appealing proposition for both enthusiasts and collectors.
