Re: MOT Failure - £1000

Thanks for the replies and the ideas regarding the lights and the wheels... unfortunately I do not have the time or the mechanical aptitude to be replacing the lights... and the wheels really do need a refurb! Yes maybe I was a bit too honest about its condition but I'm an honest guy and wanted to b...

Re: MOT Failure - £1000

Only one offer of £500, so it's going to MotorHog for £600 this week, it's a shame to send a solid Z3 to the breakers yard but cash is cash.

Re: Z3 for sale... needs TLC

Hi guys, yes the picture was 5 years ago, it still looks very similar when all polished and nice, just with the aforementioned dings and scrapes! I only put the price as I read the forum rules before posting and it said it had to have one, hence the question marks, I'm really open to knowing what pe...

Problems: Front left brake sticking and grinding, new discs, pads and possibly cylinder required. Coo...
