At Iconic Auctioneers we know first hand how good these 'Group A' M3s are, having campaigned our own car successfully for many years. This is a good example that’s been prepared by the experts at Amspeed and last raced at the 2024 Silverstone Festival. It's eligible for Motor Racing Legends, Touring Car Legends, HSCC and many more events across Europe and Amspeed have confirmed that they are happy to run the car for the new owner if they wish to do so. The current owner has generously included an extra set of very expensive wheels.

You couldn’t replicate this car for anywhere near this estimate considering the specification and 'know how' from which the car benefits having formed part of the Amspeed stable in recent years. This therefore offers access to some of the best historic motorsport and represents superb value for money.
