Thanks guys, I've listed it as pretty much the lowest I want to take on it. Due to having the new car already the crossover period is costing me money every day so I'm hoping for a relatively quick sale, I will be shooting for £11k on the classifieds so I'm giving the forum members a straight price,...

shantybeater

Thanks for the kind words

I will setup a thread for the new car incase anyone is interested, I just haven't had the chance to take any photos yet or give it the usual bonding sesh e.g.10+ hour clean!

The time has finally come to sell the Z3M. I can without a doubt say it's the best car I have owned so this is a very sad day for me She was bought back in 2010 off another forum member, for those who don't know all the details of its life (during my ownership) can be found here: http://www.zroadste...

Congrats Jonny, get some pics up!

Looking for a UT model (dealer or non-dealer version) to keep as a memento. If anyone has one please PM me,

Preferably I'm after silver but will take any other color with the black/red interior.

Cheers

Hi all, As some of you may know the car will be up for sale soon, i am toying with the idea of removing the sound system (it seems like a crime). The question is, did anyone fit Dooby's sub enclosure into a storage compartment? I need to know whether its compatible and whats involved!! Cheers, James

shantybeater

I have finally pulled my finger out and removed another part from the car http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/0541F175-61FE-4345-8389-F5D72355F2AD-400-00000054EE190179.jpg A genuine Strong Strut butt strut, This fits the ///M and may fit other models but please check first The strut ...

No affiliation, sounds like the chap isn't having the best of time but he still has his sense of humour:

Worth checking his other listing for a chuckle

Wheels look in good nick

are they visibly more concave at the back ?

P.S is that the valve cover where one of the bolts is? Very tidy design!

shantybeater

Quick bump from me guys, I know its alot of money so i'm offering a part ex on OEM wheels (with or without tyres) to take some of the sting away. It will be with the intention of selling them on seperately afterwards so i'd be looking for a fair price (that i could shift them on for)

shantybeater

Ok so there are two scenarios: - stolen recovered: could have been ragged senseless in this time ( but so could a careless previous owner) - damaged (but could have been repaired for less than the price of the vehicle), I would not assume light or minor damage for a cat D, chances are its taken a su...

Hi Mick my apologies, I've scheduled the auction to start at 8:30pm tonight, it will show up then!

Cheers mate

Morning all,

My driver side floor mat is looking a bit worse for wear. Before I go ahead and order through BMW, is there any alternatives people have used/ can recommend?

shantybeater

Thanks Jon

Great pics, shame I didn't make it along! How was the weather? It kept raining when we went last year which upset the drag strip quite a bit

shantybeater

A few updates: Wheels waxed and on, fitted new caps/M stickers, AC hoops replaced with Standard items http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/51AA48E7-B97C-4AFD-A2E9-5F02AB1C06C4-469-00000030DDD3654E_zps4f5df85c.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/BD850576-CB02-44B8-9...

shantybeater

Perfect thanks Gazza!

shantybeater

Morning guys,

Car went in for MOT today, turns out my rear numberplate light is out

Good news is no other faults!

Anyone replaced one of these before?

shantybeater

Well spotted Robert! Shipping abroad will be extra

Tez - I'm down south in Bournemouth

shantybeater

Do you think it's too much? I just looked at eBay prices and deducted a tenner

Ok I've decided to stop being lazy and get my parts advertised properly. I'll only list as and when they are removed and ready for sale to avoid messing anyone about. My BBS LM's, now sat in the spare room ready to go. Very rare in BMW fitment BBS LM's in TUV approved sizes 18x8.5" fr ET 33/34 ...

shantybeater

Evening all,

I have a tonneau cover for sale, in good condition with a bit of wear and tear but nothing a bit of interior shine/leather cleaner can't sort out

£70 delivered or £55 collected to save me the trouble

shantybeater

Well done for getting them in! They look great

The car cover looks nice too, will have to look into what other cars they make them for

shantybeater

I was about to say, keep the non-AC version and sell them on the forum for £50-60 rather than the eye watering £130! You will make a fortune!

shantybeater

Thanks for the replies, interesting to hear about the shiny bolts. OEM does sound like the best bet since they are quite important

shantybeater

Looking good

I'd try some interior shine or even leather care on the indents left by the old hoops, it should soften it up a bit enough to flatten the marks out!

Can't wait to see them fitted!

shantybeater

Pahahaha that's awesome, some great mods. The car is coming together nicely

shantybeater

Perfect, thanks Brian!

shantybeater

Hi All,

I'm looking to buy a set of wheel bolts (The BBS's are coming off along with spacers/longer bolts). There seems to be thousands of choices on ebay but does anyone have any experience buying any? Also i have no idea of exact specs!

Cheers,
James

Anyone seen the new autotrader advert?

Having seen James M in the flesh this week I can confidently say you will struggle to find a cleaner, more looked after example. It's a credit to him 8-) Thanks mate it was nice to meet you, I have been looking at exige's as well now :s Mine had 88k on it when I bought it - full SH. I think I did a...

shantybeater

Thanks for the input. To be honest I won't let it go for under 10k (which would be silly cheap imo), the sheer amount of work which has gone into it means it should be trouble free for some time. What mileage was yours? I assume it was a decent amount higher than mine otherwise you bagged a huge bar...

shantybeater

Ahh right, well i've not seen anything since

will keep my eyes peeled just incase

I live in Poole and can safely say I haven't seen it in the last 4 years, must have moved on/been scrapped or is hidden away in a garage somewhere, I'll ask my local BMW dealership if they have seen it recently

shantybeater

Well as some of you may know i'm planning on selling the car but not before turning it mostly back to standard. Its been a very tough choice but now the car has become a weekend toy only i'm after a project, the zed is just too good at the day to day stuff (and too comfortable) to fit the bill! The ...

shantybeater

Thanks Jon,

I'll definately stick about, the forum has been my home for 3+ years now!

shantybeater

Cheers bro

shantybeater

Cheers bro that does make me feel better!, it will need to after the extensive loan!!

shantybeater

They look good in the flesh, It was my main concern but I'm quite sold!

Offyourmarks - you are right I think

shantybeater

Thanks guys, Brian - you are probably right but i thought i'd go for the quiet approach!

Took me 3+ years to collect these bits!

shantybeater

Right well i've decided to commit and sell the M, very tough decision but with enough persuasion from friends/forum members i've decided its the best thing to do. A few parts (some of which will only be available when they are removed - but please register your interest) I will say already I have pe...
