This is one of the ~50 official BMW UK imports of the E30 M3 Sport Evolution. She was bought from Munich Legends Ltd in 1996 with 53,000 miles on the clock for 18,000 GBP and has been my pride and joy ever since. Her name is Cristin and she is No. 488/600. The carefully-thought full list of modifications is as follows.
The M3 Sport Evolution is the last of the real hard-core BMW drivers' cars and a true icon of the Munich's best. Essentially, this is a race car made road legal (forget about imitations and aftermarket companies, forget about sound systems and luxuries). The driver involvement and satisfaction is immense and cannot be described unless you drive one. Make no mistake: this is not a road car modified by BMW to look aggressive. It is the ultimate evolution of the E30 M3 (only 600 in the world), the racing homologation special, which is the most successful racing touring car in the history of Motorsport with over 1,300 international wins.
