One of only a handful of S3 3.0 conversions commissioned by Chris Rossiter in the early 90s. The S3 3.0 engine was built using forged and lightweight motorsport components, roducing 240hp and 315nm torque - A masterpiece based on the M50 block. The increased torque, id range response combined with its appetite for revs make it a truly exhilarating car to drive on the road. (I have the S3 brochure from ACS highlighting the build spec)
It comes equipped with a catalogue of genuine ACS (AC Shnitzer) parts which enhance the cars aesthetics and handling performance.
- Full exterior kit consisting of bumpers, ideskirts, CS Type 1 mirrors, /font>
- Full ACS stamped Bilstein suspension, RBs, ront strut brace, 7” Alloys shod in Michelins PS
- Interior consists of 3 spoke leather ACS steering wheel and horn cover, ear knob, CS carbon panel with ACS Oil temp and ACS Oil Pressure gauges
- ACS Carbon fibre grill intake with engine specs and ACS Carbon fibre engine cover.
- Full ACS Exhaust system
In tune with the character and colour of the car, have tried to recreate a CSL feel by adding a pair BMW Alcantara sport seats and matching grey floor mats.
It comes with a wallet full of Rossiter/Bmw Service history, anuals, CS S3 spec list, OT history and numerous invoices for the car since new. Mechanically it needs for nothing. I have serviced it regularly during the 4 years I have enjoyed it (as my second car - covering very little mileage as a result).
The area where the car requires a little attention would have to be the bodywork. There is a dent on the front left arch and like most of the earlier E36s the rust has come through the arches in various guises (see pics).
I have enjoyed the car for what it is and maintained the condition I inherited in 2012, ocusing on the mechanical side of things rather than turning it into a show queen. The classic Bmw csl style grey paintwork still looks superb when washed and Auto-Balmed. When compared to the Alpinas I have had over the yrs, he S3 is a more direct and raw almost GT3’ish experience, hich demands your attention. ( no assists )
A unique drive. A unique car. One for the true driver. (or BMW collector)
