It does look like a nice, cared for example.

I reckon it is "competitively priced" because of the high mileage. Some punters will be put off by that regardless as to how well its been maintained - which may be a pity.

Ah ha.

Is this a challenger to my "do I drive the most miles per yer in a Zed?"

Was out in it today, commuting to and from work.

Will do the best part of 300 miles before the weekend

I went to the Classic Le Mans last year in my TR4, but will not be going to the normal Le Mans this year. Instead this year, my son and I are going to the Spa Francorchamps Classic in late May. We are going a roundabout sort of way, calling in at Compiegne then to see the old racing circuit at Reims...

Thanks :-) Boot spoiler comes from eBay, a place in Taiwan and fully painted correctly for your car. The colour match is spot on, I have ordered 3 of these now and everyone has been perfect. Best thing is I think they are now down to £21 fully painted and posted! That looks really good - I assume i...

At £60 it is still comparatively expensive even though it is a well known brand. I bought a charger from Lidl a couple of months ago for £12 (?) when they had them on special offer. Looks exactly like the C-Tek one and comes with a 3 years warranty. Seems to be working well on my TR's battery. Regar...

Which makes me wonder if anyone else on here will do that sort of mileage in their Zeds this year? I get the impression - I might be wrong - that many of them on here are pampered, high days and holidays cars. Mine is still pampered and will be fastidiously maintained within an inch of it's life, bu...

My plans are quite simple really.

To keep driving my little Zed throughout the year. I reckon I'll do around 30,000 miles in it this year (if not a bit more)

I've done 10,200 since I bought it in August.

I think that the facelift, wide bodied version looks a bit more masculine - but then I do have a vested interest in stating that

A bargain, bearing in mind what I paid!

A nice story - congratulations to you both!

When I bought my Z3 in the summer, one of it's marker light lenses was cracked. I looked on Ebay with no luck apart from some very overpriced items in the USA. Out of desperation, I thought I'd try my local BMW main dealer Blue Bell in Crewe and was astonished to learn that they could get me one wit...

Some Scuffmaster, cleaner and conditioner from Gliptone Leathercare.

All I want is for it to stop bl@@dy raining so I can use it!

Is this the lowest mileage Z3?

...and therefore the most expensive?

As much as I think it looks nice, if you start using it, you potentially reduce its value.

I've noticed that someone on Ebay is supplying a leather repair kit which is supplied to the correct shade for your car. I want to cover some slight wear on the driver's seat bolster. Can anyone advise me how to find out what colour leather my car has? Is it on the VIN plate (if it is, I can't see i...

Many thanks - have just ordered some from Amazon

( A little bit more profit they can squirrel away )

I've looked in my local Homebase and also in Tescos but can't see it. I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for. Does it come in a tube? or a box? or a tub? I was going to ask an Assistant but they'd probably think I'd lost my marbles. So where can it be bought? Regards Peter (with a leaking hardtop :...

I like all the bottles on standby in picture 5.

I suppose they help make a tedious job go a little quicker

Interesting - and slightly worrying - about what you say about bodyshops. Mine is still in the bodyshop and apparently part of the delay with them starting the repair was with the bodyshop (ADR in Macclesfield) trying to convince the insurer that my car was a borderline write-off. :shock: Bearing in...

I don't want to spoil the fun, but your insurers are likely to increase your premium next year "...because you are the sort of driver that people drive into...". It doesn't matter that you are 100% innocent, they do it anyway. :head: Yes, I am sure that you are right :( but hopefully with...

My Z3 is in the bodyshop after being bumped by a third party. The SOB drove afterwards, but fortunately the place outside where I was parked had CCTV and the manager offered to check it for me when he'd got time. I heard no more for a week and assumed that I'd have to pay for the repairs myself and ...

Slightly off topic, but I like your rear spoiler.

Is it factory fitted?

.....just be careful in the wet !! said like a true beardy :lol: (993 owners eh!!) Mine never suffered in the wet and certainly never in the dry!! Sure I could wag it's tail if I tried hard enough...

That's interesting because I haven't seen another like it in the short time that I've owned it.

welcome to the madhouse mate :D what's the other little ditty you have in the garage 8-) Ah confession time. I have a long standing addiction to classic cars from which I'll never recover. The delicious rear end that you can see in the garage belongs to my 1963 Triumph TR4 which I've owned since 19...

As a newcomer to both Z3 ownership and this forum, what better way to introduce myself than to post some pictures. My car is a 2000 2.0L model which I have owned for about two months. Having had company cars of some description for the last 20 odd years, my new job didn't come with a car. The upside...
