2001 BMW 325xi 5-speed manual. $1234 OBO   Topeka, KS

This has been the neighborhood trampoline car for a few months. Now in my daughter's possession, and she wants it gone, far away if possible.

It runs, but the front dif is blown up. Had some huge plastic flares on it, now gone. Front fenders are in the back seat. New 420tw tires. Leather seats. Have title.

I gave away a front diff for one of those.  If someone needs it I can probably get it back.

Were the fenders cut out for tire clearance, or for rust repair?

In reply to Pete. (l33t FS) :

The fronts were removed to work on the suspension, but all were previously trimmed for clearance, I'm pretty sure. It has been lowered a fair amount. I'll get pictures in a few minutes.

 

Edit: I know barely anything about this car, it just showed up here. Three other "caretakers" in the neighborhood since summer, everybody touched it a little.

I don't see much rust evidence, other than the rockers. It could be why it's cut out, but that was done by a previous person we don't know. Along with the flares.

Front fenders are interesting...

Engine. It has one. The cover is in the backseat.

Drivers door has a dent, rocker has a little rust.
