Who else has gone straight onto ebay looking for cheap tourings?!! Love e46 tourings perfect styling for an estate. I ran a topaz blue 330I touring for 5 years...sold it with 165m and it was still as tight as a drum. Great car. Good luck with the project...fingers crossed it will get a clean bill of health.

You should do something against the rust... cause that looks nasty & I think the mechanical problem won't be a major problem. A tip to clean the dirty marks f.e. in the trunk is to first use a product, scrub it in and than use a steamer + vacuum to get it all out.

Not talk track car specs just make it a decent car, however I have now clue of mods that will achieve this, or even where I could go that will do the sort of work VRS does but for Peugeot cars.
