BMW 3 SERIES (1998-06) 330D 5DR TOURING SE AUTO

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks

The BMW 3 SERIES (1998-06) 330D 5DR TOURING SE AUTO is a premium five-door estate, rather than a hatchback or SUV, combining the familiar 3 Series driving feel with extra room for passengers and luggage. In the UK used-car market, it is an older executive estate now appealing mainly to budget-conscious buyers who value space and a distinctive badge. Its 330d diesel engine and automatic gearbox make it well suited to longer commutes, motorway trips and family duties, while the Touring body is useful for everyday shopping or holidays. Compared with rivals such as the Audi A4 Avant and Mercedes-Benz C-Class estate, it is known for an engaging drive and practical versatility, though age and upkeep deserve careful consideration. Mycarcheck checks show 79 look-ups across 57 VINs; recorded cars averaged 171,000 miles, 4,000 miles yearly and 6.5 previous keepers, with an average private-sale valuation of £500 in the recorded data.
