Introduction
Glyn Parry
The E30's success continued with the launch of the convertible, the renowned driving experience opened up to a new market.
Launched in 1982, the E30 remained in production until 1994. Automotive press from around the world praised BMW for its handling capabilities, rear-wheel drive and excellent chassis set-up. The model range included various body types, this one being the very desirable and warmer weather-ready cabriolet version. In 1987, a major update came to the E30 range; external styling changes included redesigned rear lights, front bumper, and a reduction of chrome trim, along with extended rust protection, increased interior cabin space and improved suspension set-up.
The BMW E30 has fast become a popular classic to own, and it's easy to see why. This rather lovely 1989 BMW 320i Convertible comes to market after ~30 years family ownership, recently inherited by the late owners brother-in-law. It presents in remarkable condition having clearly been cherished and maintained by a former mechanic, and comes in a lovely specification of "Malachite Green Metallic" with a beige leather interior and all important manual gearbox. A reasonable ~78,600 miles on the clock and an MOT running through to next April, this is a car that a new owner won't be disappointed with.
This listing was written from information supplied by Glyn after meeting Andrew the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.

Hi, when clicking the location map it does not go to Raglan, Wales. Is the car near Mayfield in the SE of UK?
Hi Andy,
The car is in Raglan, Wales, I’ve just updated the map link.
Thanks,
Colin.
As Kulraj has commented, the family have now removed the reserve and it is now open season. This car will be sold. Don’t miss out! Good luck everybody.
Auction Update – The seller AndrewRa has removed the reserve on the auction, this car is now on sale with “No Reserve”. Good luck if you’re involved in the bidding. Best, Kulraj – Trade Classics
Does it have AC?
No I am afraid not but you can always put the roof down!
Hi Andrew,
What a fantastic vehicle the 320i is!!
Can I ask you whether the roof is a manual or electric operated and also whether there is a hard top also?
Many thanks,
Kind regards,
Conor
The roof is manual. It is in good working order and, as Trade Classics mention, surprisingly unmarked for an 1989 car. No hard top – they are too much faff in my opinion!
