Description

Here for sale is my 2001 Z3 3.0i Manual in silver with black/red sport interior. This is loaded with options including heated sport seats, M sport steering wheel, air conditioning, trip computer, electric folding roof with head lining, tonneau cover, genuine wind deflector and removable hardtop roof. The car has extensive history with bmw dealer services up until 75,000 miles, bmw specialist history up until 120,000 and then serviced regularly by myself. The car has a few changes made. It has a stainless mid/rear section which is a little louder than the original but not distasteful and sort after rondell 0021 wheels. These are very rare but popular for bmws of this age. I bought this car in 2017 and have since carried out lots of work alongside regular servicing to keep this car in a well maintained condition. In 2019 i did a complete overhaul of the rear subframe replacing all of the bushes bearings and brakes. I also replaced all brake lines callipers, cables, discs and pads. At the front i overhauled suspension arms bushes and ball joints. In 2020 i removed the rusted out sill mouldings removed all surface rust from the sill structure and fully sealed the sills with stone chip paint and replaced the mouldings with genuine bmw panels. In 2021 i replaced the gearbox and differential oil with performance redline oil replaced the power steering high pressure lines and radiator hoses. In 2023 i overhauled the remaining suspension with bilstein B12 shocks, springs topmounts and bumpstops. Overall the exterior is in good condition for the age and mileage. The interior is also good but has some mileage related wear to the drivers seat and carpet. The only real bad bit is the soft top could do with recovering. It has a tear in the window and two holes in the canvas. I have a genuine replacement window but haven't fitted it yet. The roof has never really bothered me because i store the car indoors and generally use the hardtop or have the roof down. the soft top will weather a good shower so served it's purpose for me. I have some spares and upgrades to go with the car too that i bought off a friend and planned to fit but didn't feel the need to. These include a clutch and flywheel kit, stainless headers black front grilles, a brembo 4 pot big brake kit and some hoses and car specific tools. I'm looking for 6,500 but i'm open to reasonable and justified offers. I appreciate this is a high mileage vehicle but it has had the work done to keep this car going on Next MOT due 21/07/2025, Full service history, Silver, 5+ owners, £6,500
