Aceman.... can't remember exactly but I think it was something like £60 for the key itself and £20 for coding it to the central locking (I could have done this bit myself I suppose, but decided not to chance it). I think its great to find someone being truthfull on Ebay... makes a change.. sometime...

Did you do a full uninstall beforehand including manually deletaing any remenants left behind, it just seems from the thread on Bimmerforums.com if you read to the end there are many people with exactly the same problem as yourself and most of them have resolved it following mikes instructions. I ha...

This thread has been most informative and has stopped me buying a key off Ebay. Interestingly I did see one advertised on Ebay that basically said what "ribs" has said that you won't be able to code it to your vehicle which I thought strange and set alarm bells ringing in my head, why woul...

For all you guys struggling to get Carsoft to work the read the following thread on Bimmerforums.com, you will find it very informative and resourceful especially page 4 !!

I'm up for this time/date dependant.

Sounds good.

Glad to see you cracked it and as stated elswhere nice car and colour combo.

No problem

I have removed my pic now you know how to do it as I think it kind of steals your thunder in this thread with the size of it.

Met Steve a few times in the early 90's as I used to know his manager, I am suprised he has sold the plate though as he very much prized it.

Paul Daniels !!

Another one for you who owns

PEN 15

Mmm, interesting never thought of looking down there.

Mine isn't a facelift but couldn't see the sensors hence reason for asking.

Another newbie question, where are the ultrasonic sensors located ?

Thanks,

Meet & Runout

Meet only

I might only be able to meet but hoopefully will get chance to have a ride out with you guys.

Good idea I was just looking at that this morning thinking I will pop along for a shufty, would be good to meet a few folk.

Very nice Rob, fantastic photo's.

Regarding the front indicator mod did you just remove the amber lens and fit the chrome indicator bulbs leaving just the reflector rather than fitting a clear lens. Any chance of a closer pic of the headlights as I might do this mod myself dependinh how it looks.

I have been thinking of getting Carsoft myself but your comments worry me as to whether it is worth it. One thing that springs to mind as I know coming from VAG vehicles if you use a USB to serial adapter you could not connect to all of the modules. What are you guys using in terms of interface ? I ...

That's a good buy I think I will give that a look myself. How does it perform, where have you mounted the mic for the bluetooth?

I have an older Alpine unit fitted so presumably I woould need a different adapter lead to fit this Kenwood into my Z3?

There's a few of us around the Wakey area now, I smell a mini-meet coming on what do you think.

Well done on the purchase, some sleepless nights now until you pick it up.

Ooh, that does look nice low miles aswell and has the best interior too. Located in Peterborough which would be trek for you but if it's the right one well worth the trek.

I bought a red 2.8 last weekend hope it wasn't the one you were after, I got it from a trader near Leicester though.

Well got under and checked my exhaust last night and its a loose baffle which is a real bummer ! I suppose I will have to live with it as the exhaust looks in pretty good condition otherwise.

Just got my Z3 at the weekend and found out I have a similar problem so I will have a look this weekend weather permitting. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction as I was fearing the exhaust was failing but reading this thread has convinced me it is the heatshield as it only rattles when col...

Nice one !

Pick mine up tommorrow, I will let you all know what it's like.

Cheers Robert that's a very good guide and I am sure I will be attempting that at some point.

Regarding the exhaust what do the guys do that fit after market exhausts do you just disconnect it ?

Thanks Kiwi, I am still a newbie to Z3's so appreciate the heads up on the spec. I also love the seats and when I was looking around for one I had made my mind up that I had to have the sport seats. The alloys as you say are in very good condition with only one slight mark on one of the wheels which...

Thanks guys,

Just can't wait to pick it up now

Thanks for the comments, must admit I hadn't noticed the cargo net !

It has covered 60k and £6.5k, think I dropped lucky on this one considering the others I have seen.

Hi Guys, Well after a couple of weeks looking I stumbled across my perfect Z3 and couldn't resist so here are a few pics; http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff210/aceman99/My%20Z3/DSCF0126.jpg http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff210/aceman99/My%20Z3/DSCF0124.jpg http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/f...
