About this specific vehicle
As far as iconic cars go; you’re hard pushed to find one that most people will agree on. However, the e31 falls firmly within that bracket. With buttery ride quality, fabulous looks and performance to desecrate its competition on the autobahn, there are few that can match the BMW e31 for an all-round GT package. Heralded as they have been over the years, values have risen exponentially and this wonderful example should prove to be a brilliant investment.
With only 1,510 csi’s built in total, let alone RHD UK Market cars, this is an extremely rare machine, with “how many left” stating a mere 42 remaining in the UK in 2021. The engine in these is the beast that not only furnished the McLaren F1, but also are so smooth they don’t knock over a coin when started, which as testament to the condition of this vehicle, we can show it performing its party trick to date!

With a full-service history to back up its mileage but also its fabulous condition inside and out, it ticks all of the boxes to be an ideal driveable and enjoyable investment. It still has its BMW book pack with all items present and correct, as is the rust-free factory tool kit in the boot.
This particular E31 will be presented to market with a full pre-sales inspection and in turn key order for you to go out and enjoy it straight away. Even the rear wheel steering works exactly as BMW intended making the car feel much lither and lighter than the sum of its parts would have you believe.
With 380 of the smoothest ever horsepower on tap, it will easily upset modern cars, add to those four exhausts and pop-up headlamps and there really isn’t much more you could possibly ask for. This really is a great car to drive.
Why not get in touch and find out for yourself just why these fabulous machines are so coveted.
Technical specification
This car has had a serious overhaul in the past few years, having had any rust rectified and its paintwork done to a very high standard, it presents beautifully. This car has had a serious overhaul in the past few years, having had any rust rectified and its paintwork done to a very high standard, it presents beautifully. The AC Schnitzer wood interior was a period aftermarket upgrade, which makes this car even more rare!
The car has had a new RWS pump, in fact the very last one from BMW Germany, so that’s a large ticket item ticked off the list that shouldn’t cause you trouble in the future. Along with the E31 sore point, being the headlamp wiring, which has also been upgraded here, this car is somewhat futureproofed.
Due to the loving ownership this car has received, it drives like a car of half its age and mileage. Incredibly smooth and powerful, you’d never feel the need for more car. With so few of these remaining, it is only a matter of time before their cult status has their values in the hundreds – this was BMW’s halo car of the 90’s, a kick in the teeth to Porsche and the 928…
The car has working heated seats, AC, M sport mirrors (also not available on US spec cars) and is in the ultimate colour combination. It still has all 3 keys and a very rare original 8 series keyring, a serious car for the true collector.
The car is offered with a choice of wheels too (which will give you an idea as to how good a collection it is being offered from), you can choose throwing stars, the original BBS splits you see in the photographs (my personal favourite), or the ever-popular M parallels, all of which have been restored at great expense!
The best value csi for sale in the U. K, if not the world!
If the right price is paid, the owner will sweeten the deal with a very rare mechnical 8 series watch brand new in its box (retailing at nearly £1, 000. 00) and will include that elusive original 8 series key ring! What's not to like!
