Description
For sale is my 1999 BMW Z3 e36 2.8 Roadster finished in the rare Palmetto Green with beige leather interior. Powered by BMW's renowned M52 2.8-litre straight-six engine and smooth automatic gearbox, it's a fantastic car to drive and an increasingly desirable modern classic.
The car starts, drives and performs exactly as it should. I'm only selling because it has spent most of its time in my garage, apart from a short period being used by my father while his own car was off the road. It deserves to be enjoyed rather than sitting unused.
Work carried out during my ownership:
* New brake callipers, discs, pads, braided hoses and pad wear sensors
* New brake pipes throughout
* Front wheel bearings, hubs and reluctor rings
* ABS sensors replaced on all four wheels
* Front wishbones, bushes and anti-roll bar links
* Rear coil springs
* Engine cooling fan motor
* Cabin blower resistor
* Radiator hoses
* Seat bushings
* New windscreen wipers
Recent maintenance:
* Full service (July 2025) including engine oil/filter, gearbox oil/filter, spark plugs, air filter and cabin filter
* Coolant flushed and replaced
* Underside rust treated and painted
* Brand new tyres on all four corners
* Brand new battery
* Fresh 12-month MOT
* V5, MOT history and various invoices included
Specification:
* 117,054 miles
* 2.8-litre M52 straight-six
* Automatic gearbox
* Beige leather interior
* Electric seats
* Electric windows
* Electric mirrors
* Power steering
* Alloy wheels
* Electric convertible roof
Honest points:
* Small windscreen chip on passenger side (MOT advisory)
* Light rust beginning on the sills (shown in photos and MOT advisory)
* Minor surface corrosion on brake pipes (advisory only - pipes have recently been replaced)
* Radio aerial bracket missing, so the radio doesn't work correctly, although bluetooth connectivity is available
* Age-related marks and minor scratches consistent with a 27 year old car
Overall, this is a well-maintained example in a rare colour with one of BMW's best straight-six engines. It would make an excellent summer car or future classic.
