Information

It's been some time since we last treated you to a BMW E30 die-cast model, so this replica is long overdue. This bold Brilliant Red 1:43 scale design will make quite an impact on your collector's shelf, with its impeccable detail - check out those wheels!

This die-cast model is a limited edition of 900.

The manual E30 modelled was supplied by Williams BMW, Manchester, on the 17th April 1991 with an Anthracite fabric interior plus an optional electric sliding sunroof. It was meticulously maintained by its first three owners and retains its original handbook pack, instruction manuals and radio guide.

The fourth owner, London-based Philip James, purchased it from Altwood BMW, Maidenhead in May 1997, when it had covered 38,600 miles, and kept it for 27 years. He loved the styling and driving experience but reluctantly parted with it after the ULEZ regulations made regular use impractical. He thus offered it for sale via Cheshire-based classic car specialists Manor Park Classics in April 2024.

It was purchased by the current owner, Northern Ireland-based Stephen Devine, a well-known BMW collector and enthusiast who was impressed by its extensive history file showing 32 service and seven brake fluid stamps. At this point, it had covered 210,000 miles but still presented and drove very well because of the care and attention lavished on it by long-term owner Philip James.

Soon after buying the car, Stephen decided its condition and rarity justified a meticulous restoration back to showroom condition, which he has now commenced. The E30#s sonorous straight-six engine, involving handling and exquisite understated style, makes it popular with enthusiasts, and a well-restored example in this striking factory colour combination is bound to wow the crowds at classic car shows.
