This manual covers the BMW 3 Series, specifically the E21 chassis, produced from 1975 to 1983.

Powered by the robust BMW M10 engine family, with variants ranging from 1.8L to 2.3L, this vehicle was engineered with BMW's 'Ultimate Driving Machine' philosophy, emphasizing performance, handling, and build quality. It offered both 2-door and 4-door sedan body styles, with a choice of 4-speed or optional 5-speed manual transmissions, or a 3-speed automatic. The E21 was lauded by automotive press for its sporting character and helped solidify BMW's reputation in its segment.
