Description

I bought the z3 late July 2023 on 76k and have looked after it extensively. All mileage has been M-way so no stress on the car at all. The engine pulls very well with no unwanted knocks/smoke/ticking. The clutch is also in good condition with the biting point not being really high up & not slipping in any gear. The suspension is tight as it should be, handles much better with the new links + poly bushes. Both oil changes I've carried out have been at 9k & 8k intervals. Service history is part, with it missing a service by a few k miles. The previous owner did also replace the roof which is fair, although the rear window could do with some attention. The z3 also comes with its original tannoy cover & wind deflector + Taylor made roof cover The body work is not bad at all for its age. Underneath, any surface rust on trailing arms has been treated & protected. The rear subframe has been sanded back & protected too. Only bit of rust I can find is on the drivers side sill at the back. A pair of sills can be bought from BMW for 350. (This is extremely common) A common issues on z3's (mainly on the more powerful 2.8's & 3.0's) is the spot welds in the boot sinking. The spot welds have not sunk, neither corroded. Work carried out by myself (with receipts to prove) Recent pagid front discs & pads Recent (8 months old) O/S front shock replaced (sachs) New rear differential bushing (proflex)+ diff oil change. New gearbox fluid X4 recent tires with plenty of life (Pirelli & davanti) New rocker cover gasket New prop-shaft bush + centre support bearing New track rod ends (lemforder OEM) New front control arm bush (poly bushed) New oil filter housing gasket + O ring New front anti roll bar links + bushes New rear anti roll bar links Second hand cat-back stainless exhaust system with no blows or broken baffles.
