nice looking car , 15 mpg though.

peterandjenny

As far a I know all 3 series wheels fit e 36 46 and 92
The exception being the m as the rears have a different offset.

peterandjenny

Sorry did not know these are designed to be welded on. Otherwise I would have been interested but I like to be able to get back to original.

peterandjenny

Pre facelift have two sizes for the single or twin vanos engines, the later have oval larger tailpipes rather than the smaller round ones of the original 2.8's

peterandjenny

2.8's tail pipes come in 2 differing sizes . I found out after getting the chrome tailpipes from a dealer only to find out they did not fit ?

peterandjenny

Polishes up quite well for an old thing , and the car

peterandjenny

Yes that was us

Trip to stow on the wold and back , did not even need to turn the seats on . I washed it before leaving but it was covered in mud by the time we got back.
First time spotted by a forum member , thanks.

I know some one who would like to buy it complete .

peterandjenny

Does it have an mot and what sort of miles ? Should be Worth putting on eBay rather than the hassle of breaking .
If not can we have first dibs on the rear view mirror, and I know some one who would like the roll hoops and mounts ect.

peterandjenny

Should do but it is a lot of work , there is a guide somewhere . how does the red leather look ?

Here it is .

Would like to have an insulated roof but not worth the cost for us

peterandjenny

Acs type 2 racing but in 17's same profile tires I think they are 9j's at the rear.

peterandjenny

Yes but would it be worth the hassle?

peterandjenny

Just seen this on eBay
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Breaking-Up-B ... 27cbf3cf7a

Facelift 1.9 nothing wrong with it ( allegedly )but must be worth more as a collection of parts that than as a whole car.

peterandjenny

We did the same thing but used a mondeo Ghia x armrest £10 from eBay , this fits nicer though .

peterandjenny

We found it very good on ours 1 bottle should last years.

peterandjenny

Unfortunate name but it does work well on black paintwork .

peterandjenny

Very good stuff, we use poor boys black hole first then this over the top best combination we have found for a cosmos black car.

peterandjenny

M seats are very rare and go for £500 a pair in good condition . sports seats are the same shape but with not so nice leather( we fitted black and red ones to our zed) go for about £300 . The red colour is tanin red on ours.

peterandjenny

Well done , just waiting for pictures .

peterandjenny

There is a guide on the web will look for you , take pictures at each stage and label up the fittings as they come out .
Peter

Here it is! Would be nice to see pictures.

peterandjenny

No just painted red.

peterandjenny

No message arrived here?

peterandjenny

Update , have not heard anything else from mateyz after replying to his pm. have had and offer but would rather not post to south africa as these are fragile. Willing to take offers over £200, just a reminder all the parts are new and now unavailable from bmw. Having a clear out so will be selling s...

peterandjenny

Just done this , works well

peterandjenny

Looked at those as they do look good on a zed , but they will not fit a z3m due to the much shorter rear axle plus you would need to budget £150 per wheel for a refurb plus I would not want that mix of tires on a pram let alone a 300+ hp sports car. Would be cheaper to get a set in good condition in...

peterandjenny

Just seen one in the new auto trader advert does anyone know who's car it is ?
On a related note wish me luck jenny is taking her zed to silverstone tomorrow to try out the skid pan followed by 30mins in a 911, one of the instructors is VBH. Should be a good day out .

peterandjenny

The only part of us on .org was Jenny's rear and it is the same on .net are you guys collaborating ?
Fantastic weekend .

peterandjenny

Thanks, will try shorting it, it could be the wire but was fine when fully up and fully down.

peterandjenny

Followed the wire down to the white connector meat the top of the ram and used a multimeter to measure the circuit .all ok do not think it is the switch in the front as it has the same symptoms science putting in a facelift switch for the m console .what next ?

peterandjenny

This car used to be in Milton Keynes , not my taste but has been inspired by play station garage options in a game .

peterandjenny

Ours does tend to just stop randomly with no sound points to electrics , roof micro switch is ok so is the wires to it, brake lights work ok , works 7 times out of 8 but can just stop. Sometimes after pressing again it will work ! Intermittent problems are a pain .

peterandjenny

we think so as well

peterandjenny

Our roof motor looks very different to yours we have had ours in manual mode for a while , I suspected the roof micro switch but after taking it out today found it was working fine . We have the same symptoms will work most of the time but every now and then it will just stop . Low oil may be the pr...

peterandjenny

Your seats look the same colour as ours which are tanin red
Dream red is brighter

peterandjenny

fitted sports seats to ors not as nice as the m ones but much nicer than the standard ones and heated

peterandjenny

peterandjenny

Best thing about silver is it hides the dust and dirt ( we had a silver zed ) but if you like to get obsesive about paintwork get a black one :wink: We think a zed has classic lines whatever the colour.e.g. http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad186/peterandjenny/DSC_0297small.jpg Will you be coming t...

peterandjenny

This one ? good luck with the sale but in the current climate the price is 2-3 thousand too high. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/110884251046?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 We have a black 1999 2.8 with 34,000 miles and being realistic it has not got a value over £5000, this is ou...

peterandjenny

Have a look at what boxsters are going for on ebay

Still that is a lot of car for the money with not much worn out due to the lack of use. Like the body colour but not the inside.

peterandjenny

Looks good, you going to silver stone ?

peterandjenny

I think all the fronts are the same unless you have the aero sills the backs are different though
Narrow wide and facelift

peterandjenny

my mistake , thought they would have made them for all models hence 3 types

peterandjenny

front and back £ 50, 3 different types of rear though.

peterandjenny

just purchased some just need some wide body rears now
