Vehicle Overview
Description
Find us at deanemotors.ie Take an ‘80s BMW icon, give it some top grade steroids and you get something rather special. This 1987 E30 M3 has been given what’s been dubbed the ‘Competition Pack’ and the result is a very fast, very competent and very mean looking car that can be used on the road, track or a variety of motorsport events. Previously owned by Jay Kay of Jamiroquai who piloted the car on the 2020 Rally Clasico in Mallorca, the car was prepared and supplied by UK firm Hero Motor Company who carried out the bulk of the upgrades. Outside there are staggered BBS 17” wheels, Evo 2 front spoiler and Sport Evo rear spoiler, carbon wing mirrors and a DTM style exhaust. The lowered stance is thanks to rally spec suspension and adjustable negative camber arms. Inside is where things are taken up another notch. A full Safety Devices FIA spec roll cage, black leather/alcantara Recaro seats, Schroth Racing 6-point harnesses, removable Momo steering wheel, Monit timing system and multiple fire extinguishers are the order of the day, along with some additional ancillary gauges to keep an eye on the vitals of the mega engine up front. The modified 2.5 260bhp unit with slide-throttle and carbon fibre air intake is absolutely intoxicating with a distinctive sound and sublime performance. Coupled with a short-shift gear linkage, shortened diff ratio, larger AP Racing brakes, short ratio steering rack, adjustable anti-roll bars and competition suspension, this E30 M3 is simply sensational to drive and is surprisingly tractable and comfortable on the road. A turn-key ‘Competition Pack’ M3 with provenance that is guaranteed to exhilarate. **Viewing strictly by appointment. All cars supplied with valid NCT where appropriate.**

I recently purchased an e46, 320Ci off Simon from Deane Motors. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience from start to finish. From the first call on Tuesday to picking up the car on Friday, the process was seamless! Someone who really knows their stuff and values his customers. Would highly recommend to anyone in the market.

I just got my Ferrari back from Simon and the lads today after a serious engine out service. They got straight into the job when the took in the car and had it back in a very reasonable timeframe. The lads kept me up to date throughout with videos, photos and general updates. You wouldn't get this level of transparency from a Main Dealer. There were unforeseen issues along the way but they just got on with it and were able to order awkward parts where possible and had parts made where they were not available or too expensive to buy. Very few mechanic operations left of this type in Ireland with this wealth of knowledge and experience and they are not afraid to work on the higher end old cars. I will definitely be back to them for any future maintenence. Now all I need is a dry day to enjoy this V8 on the backroads again!!

Recently purchased my M4 from Simon and he was a pleasure to deal with from day one. After delivery there were some minor issues with the car, which were unknown to Simon and his Team, but he took the car back and fixed everything. He even provided a loan car to keep me on the road for a few days. As above, a pleasure to deal with and I can’t wait to do business with them again soon. Also a quick shout out to Simon Walsh who was so helpful throughout.
