The BMW 325i was a massively important car for BMW - and it remains an enduring success today. The E30 generation cemented BMW as the market leader in the medium sized saloon sector, and although it looked little different from its predecessor, thanks to understated styling by Claus Luthe, it was far more convincingly engineered and far better to drive. The upper models in the range, with their straight-six power, rear wheel drive and perfectly judged steering, were the ones to have.

Expansion of the range continued apace with the in-house 3-Series convertible replacing the earlier Bauer cars. The new Convertible made do with a strengthened windscreen surround (instead of the full roll-over structure), which gave it an incredibly clean design. Available with a variety of engine options from the four cylinder 318i to the range topping 325i, these beautiful looking convertibles are regarded by many as having been one of BMWs finest machines, lightweight, refined and offering unparalleled driving pleasure.
