I have always adored the #bmw #e92 #m3 but for some reason I have never owned one. Now it's time to change that with this #salvage 2013 model.
When I bought this car through the auctions at copart I originally thought I had ended up over paying for what is quite an old car with high mileage but this BMW had a few surprises for me when I had it delivered...

I am from South Africa and we absolutely love e92 M3’s!! Can’t wait to see the progress on this build…🇿🇦❤
Yeah sure, you guys like to hijack them!!
Shame on you, it must be nice labelling us from your keyboard lol
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
I dare him come say that nonsense in SA, probably has never even been here. What a chop
Its no secret that SA is an extremely unsafe space full of xenophobia..
That colour is very similar to "Etna Black" that I had on my Alfa Romeo. That will be some absolutely stunning paint when the sun shines
Chris! Great content mate, that's a great find. I can see it was sold on 14th May 2019 with 95k for £19,925. Interesting to compare to the price you paid, but that was pre crash & pre COVID.
How were you able to find this out ?😅
@@ryansxperiance I use the app total car check, it's really good. It gives you tonnes of information on a car via the reg and it's free.
As someone who has always wanted an e92, this is very heartwarming 😅 great vid Chris, it’s given me a kick up the jaxxy to get it done 💪🏼
I have broke so many torx bits on that same arm. God bless halfords advanced warranty.
My 12 plate bmw x5 is individual in rubin shwach metallic. Lovly colour
Bmw don't start straight away if battery is fully flat.
You need to wait about 10 min with jump pack or jump lead cable then it will start.
Otherwise no start whatsoever you do.
Put jump lead and wait 10 minutes next time then try.
Top tips for you.
Keep going bro. We’re with you all the way ! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
❤Love the colour❤ Keep up the great videos Chris. Happy New Year!
You always help mat but we never see him helping you
Great colour car maybe a good one .Competition pack is the way the car should always have been.
I had 2 loved them to bits except putting fuel in was a drag even if you can afford it 😂
Brilliant again Chris.
Friend of mine just brought a manual one for 12k terrible paint down one side
I was biding on this ruby black competition . Congrats with win
Lovely car , how many projects do you have on the go now ? In the x5 done ? R8 ? Have I missed these videos ?
BMWs are worth every penny chris😅❤
I was bidding on that!
Why it sounds like electric car
Let's go!
Please keep it original! 😂
I make zero promises 😅
Amazing duo x3m and m3 💨
Be nice if you supercharge it
I had one with the ESS supercharger and a scorpion stainless exhaust, awesome transition to an Awesome balanced car!
No way you overpaid on that Chris. It's going to turn out to be a great buy. Superb colour, Comp pack, great spec, late model, minor damage - what's not to love. Don't sweat the mileage at all - these cars run as sweet as the day they left the factory as long as they're looked after. I've owned several of these cars, the 'latest' over ten years now and I'm on over 160,000 miles, had the conrod bearings changed couple years ago at 148k miles and the actuators a year before that - one went at 138k miles so I got both refurbed by Rebuild with lifetime warranty...absolute joy to drive, I can see me never selling it, so much fun and a real event every time you fire it up. So much bang for buck on them, yes they may be lacking in the low end torque range but once you wind that glorious S65 up, nothing beats it in that price range or anywhere near. I've had a Stage 2 tune, a GTS DCT flash and an Akrapovic Evo exhaust to mine and it transformed the car completely, although you can get the similar gains from a primary cat removal 'test pipes' set up. Looking forward to you getting this up and running and hearing your thoughts. Regarding the whine, the pulleys dry easily on these cars when laid up, a quick dash of WD40 cures it I've found (do them one by one to locate the culprit and stop the whine)...also tensioner pulley is prone to a 'rattle' when flooring it. Anyway. I've rambled on enough! Such awesome cars. Loving the channel!
Fellow M3 (E93) driver here. This was all so useful to read!
On 71’000 miles. Was a little worried (the common adage “100’000 = death row” comes to mind). So reassuring, because I just don’t want the fun to end!!!
I get it serviced proactively (ahead of computers scheduling), use the high grade oil top ups. Would you recommend I do anything else? Thanks again
I rebuilt one of these in lockdown Chris, they’re epic cars, mine was damaged on the passenger side so luckily didn’t damage any coolers, hope you get it fixed without too many issues. These cars are very temperamental if the battery voltage drops too low so if you ever have any electrical niggles bang a new battery in it
I've rebuilt mine twice. For me it was worth it!
I would have used the cheapest oil available and make sure IT’s running as it should as well as getting the rod bearing’s checked / replaced and then put the better oil 🎉
I think you might be onto something here Chris. Repairing relatable / affordable cars vs Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche could well be a gap in the market 👍
Enjoying this,try and stick to 10k to 15k budget as most people can relate to it.
Not everyone can afford to repair lambo,s and Ferrari,sorry MA 😍
Really enjoying the videos and this ticks the boxes. I thought I had subscribed but wasnt....... I have changed it now ;)
This looks interesting! 🤔 How about converting it to a manual? 😁
Great great car to add for content 🔥 following will be huge. Looking forward 😁❤️
Great video! Noise sounds like a PAS pump?
M539 Restaurations has overhauled the engine on one of these in case you need tips. This will be an amazing built when it’s done. Best of luck Chris!🎉👌🙏
M539 is one of my favourite channels for detailed work
@M539Restoration is probably the best TH-cam channel. I hope many content creators can follow Sreten’s example. 😄
Frr
Comminnng uppp😅😅😅
My dads got an E92 M3 and it’s a manual coupe they sound stunning he’s got a 2 pipe mod and when it redlines at 8500 rpm my word 😩
Edit: Rather then pressing the sport button when she’s running and driving fine press the m button on the steering wheel it makes the car behave completely different like it’s just had 7 lines of coke 😂 but you can change the m settings in the i drive
The dct are the best ones to have.
@@DaleSteel All depends on what you like but that engine with a manual suits it so well
Your dad is cool
Good luck on the Beamer Chris 🙏👍
Probably the alternator making that whine
All about that e92 life. Let's go 💪
Lads those connections under the hood are to give car power so you can get the battery.. you should then always use a jump pack directly on the battery to get the best result.
White e92 m3 👌🔥 ill own one one day 😂
That Rubin metallic is sick, love the car and loving the build hope for no hidden gremlins along the way 😎🤞
That picture defo made me think its a Mat Armstrong video 😂😂😂 good copy lad, hope you smash it 👍
M539 has done loads to an e92 worth a watch looking forward to this build im not jealous 😢
Give me the M3 Chris Please after you have rebuild it I am in Scotland 🏴
Awesome ! Hope you dont get the parts mixed up with the X5 parts - BMW bits everywhere 😊
PAY ATTENTION❗️❗️❗️, look how you put transmission cooler bracket, it is not right, look before and look after ❗️
You should purchased 2015 Rolls royce wraith "Agnes" scrape donor owner by Freddie Tavarish for rebuilding that car 2 life
Had a carista. Biggest bag of junk. Cost me £295-67 to correct all the problems that it caused. Audi told me to avoid cheap pieces of junk. Obd11. Rubbish 🗑
The more I watch this video the more I understand why I'd never buy a BMW...Total waste of money...Give the local scrap dealer a ring...And pay HIM to take this away!!!
You got absolutely slagged on that purchase price, you're going to put well over $15,000 into it to rebuild it to where you would want it. You can pick nice example E92 M3's here for around $20,000 -$25,000 with similar mileage if they've been regularly serviced. And those would be no accident, 1-2 owner cars. I get the whole concept of buying a copart car is to use the car to create content and make money, just don't try to hide the fact that it was a bad deal.
My fav BMW as well 🎉 keep my fingers crossed, I admire the transition from detailing to rebuilding 💪keep up the good work and you'll soon catch up with MA level of subs. You deffo have my "vote" 🤘🤘
Reaaaally strange the amount of force that the engine needed to start up…… mine did that with a rod bearing spun so it took a loooot of tries thinking it was the battery instead of a crankshaft stuck😂😂 please check bearings!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't know you had your own channel. Love your style mate, new sub!
The only cheap BMW is the cheap owner. I would not imagine putting a used oil cooler to my “dream car” and speculate about dealership maintenance when you certainly would not do it for the car. Dont get me wrong, that car at its time was a beast… but cannot keep up with the kids anymore. Any Lancia or Golf has more lower rpm torque. You will enjoy the car only at the limit, not while going to buy bread to Cost Co or your Masala to Marks and Spencer.
Stop cruing
Thxs - good luck with the rebuild.. curious how you found out how many were made with Rubin - Black.. I have an Azurite Black one (E93) and have been trying to track down how many in that colour.
When you have a crash damaged car that may have lost oil and has probably been sitting for months. It's not a great idea to try and start it straight away. Replace any damaged oil feed parts first. Then PRIME the oil circuit with the fuel pump and ignition disabled. Get the oil moving throughout the whole system, camshafts, bearings etc. THEN start the engine.
Hey Chris. Good content. Glad to see you in your friend Matt’s as well lately. So it turns out you probably didn’t overpay. Well, then please don’t click bait your thumbnails like that. The better story is that it’s a rare find, don’t you think? Thanks
Nice ecology 9 bottles of oil istaded of max 3, only in BMW and make them all electric becouse of environment. The front badge of BMW should have clown logo on it xD
Everything went well until you uttered the word Rochdale 😂 Rochdale is like Tatooine lol I’m from Oldham so I can say it 😂😂😂😂.
I like this format, especially where your boys come just to help out a bit
I had a 2011 competition in Ruby Black what a car you just reminded me to look at some old pics of mine with the paint popping in the sunshine and it looks ace 😎I recommend once repaired do the rod bearings, an evolve engine and gearbox map, upgrade the brakes, maybe do the exhaust mod (although I never bothered as the car sounded epic) I replaced the grills with rare dark bronze ones off the M3 ltd. edition and then perfect car. Wondering why I sold mine now🤔😄 Good luck with build...
Love the e92 M3. Have a 335 e92 myself, but the M3 will be in my garage one day. Peace
... Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe.
Please tell me, but I hope I just missed it, that you topped off the transmission fluid while the engine was running?
We are Ruby Black Metallic E92 twins.
You got me real excited when you showed the color, goodluck on the rebuild
Love the E92 M3, looking forward to this series!
Love it Chris. If you call Rochdale BM and ask nicely, I'm sure they will provide you copies of the service history. Just tell them you are happy for them to block out previous owners details for GDPR 😂
E30 will always be the best. I'll never stop regretting that I didn't buy one in my early twenties for £8k
Great video as always mate keep up the good content ❤
Great vidio Chris ...just a note ..an extension on an impact gun acts as a torsion spring so you lose loads of UGA DUGA power
These lads in the video might be good help on your other BMW also. Big up the team feeling Chris 💪👌
Insurance isn't expensive. The biggest costs are fuel. Expect low mpg
Also main bearings are something to look out for, specially the one nearest to the timing chain
Big fan had one few years ago epic cars great content as always 👌
I’ve been following mat armstrong forever and love his content. Checked this lad out and he’s just as good, but this is like the notmal version. Like a bmw m3 is attainable for me. It’s a great watch ❤
Personally i think you definitely over paid given its a cat s. I'd says its normal value would be high teens hpi clear. So Cat S maybe low to mid teens to sell on fixed? Normally trying to sell a Cat S on is a ball ache of course this is not a factor if your going to eventually raffle it off.
Mate, I live fairly local to you, if you need a hand on your car give me a shout, I'm no mechanic but know the basics :)
This vehicle has always past its MOT apart from 2016 when it needed new tyres and the previous owner only had this car for 3 years and 9 months
Owned one of these (and wrote it off.. ) best car I’ve had - don’t ruin it with too many mods! Keep it simple :)
Love the e92’s 👌🏼 only ever seen one other BMW in Ruby Black, rare colour! Beauty!
it has m359 rimms so maby it is a competiton... (i am a proud ower of a e93 m3 "alpine white" "fox red")
Great car love the M3 something all you guys on you tube need to do is before you start working on the car take the battery of and charge it makes life alot easier keep up the good work
Shame it ain't a manual 😉 joking mate I'm only jealous I ain't got one! Looking forward to seeing the progress dude 💪
Good Luck Chris, can't wait for the X3 M....❤
This is one of my favourite cars, I really hope you put a custom exhaust on this thing. That s65 sounds so good
Ce n’est pas un concours juste des passionnés de voiture magnifique m3 👍
I used to work at the rochdale bmw 😅 I probably cleaned it when I came in haha
Power steering fluid could be low that's why it's whining..my m3 did this
You can’t beat an M3, the E92 is such a good model with its V8 engine and its playful rear end, I completely get why you went for it Chris. It will be good to see this finished and back on the road for some spirited drives 👍🇬🇧
Could you do a garage update please with everything you own and tell us what we can expect to see in the upcoming year?
Your doing a great job buddy, keep it up 👍👍
This car was crashed at a track day at oulton park I seen it happen
Love the car I’ve got one as well so it’s nice to see what you guys are doing to the car. I wish i could get mine up to scratch. Keep up the good work good video as well. I’m going to bmw to see if they would give me a history on mine as well many thanks
In fact only 43 E92 in Ruby, and Only 18 in Comp spec
V8 roadtrip incoming? 👀
Having owned the same year of 3 series the amount of “bings” have reignited my BMW-PTSD
😂 i hear it in my dreams
😂😂😂😂 I hate it too. The only “bings” I’m ok to have is a reminder for washer fluid 🤣
Hey Chris, subscribed and loved the video! These V8 M3’s really are amazing! Looking forward to more content! Happy New Year!!!
As soon as a wheel isn’t straight they class it as structural. Bonus when it’s a £15 track rod end
I watched the whole episode, beautiful BMW as always. I hope you will be pleased with this car. I've always dreamed of something like this, unfortunately it's not within my budget. Greetings from Coventry
Mate I love watching your work on all these car so much to the point t that I am Hoi g to go back to college to study how wire cars up I need thanks for the inspiration
being such a rare car I think it deserves an engine checkup with new aftermarket rod bearings so it lives for many more miles
are you guys planning on replacing the rod bearings? id recommend it to be done just for peace of mind?
