BMW E30 M3 "Cecotto"

Desmo · 29-09-2009, 07:34

We print postcards for a guy who races in the La Carrera Panamerica in Mexico each year. He's a Porsche engineer and works on loads of old cars. He turned up yesterday to place this years order and he was in a car his friend has let him blast around in for the weekend.

It was a grey BMW M3 Cecotto edition. Not many of them about and from 1898, I'm not sure how many are left. Main thing is....this one only had 12,000 miles on the clock

It was totally mint, not a mark on it.

Found some more info on it in the link below...

lol, I'm not surprised there's not many left, if it's 111 years old!!

I have a friend who has just sold his E30 M3. I think he's using the money to fund entry into a Porsche race series next season.

So glad I'm not the only one that spotted that.

Hmm, race prepping porsches, braintree area, sounds like Dave of Motorwerks?

Nice M3, one of the few BMWs I'd consider owning - although I'd settle for the "regular" M3 in that shape too

Aye, it was a bit old

Nah, it's Andy Prill at Maxted, Page & Prill. Based out in Sible Hedingham. He's always turning up in different cars

He's got Stirling Moss over for lunch this weekend apparently.
