WANTED:Looking for a new Zed 2.8
Hi everybody,
Well I have decided to embark on a road trip to either Spain or Norway and need a Zed for the trip. Ideally a 2.8! as that was wha I had before and I think I would feel a little cheated if I went for a smaller engine after having a 2.8 prior.
Looking to buy one between now and end of May, so if you hear of one coming on the market please let me know!
Thank you all in advance!

Re: Looking for a new Zed 2.8
Don't have a 2.8 - only a 2.2 Sport - but will be selling after Easter.
Gutted to have to but we're moving house and will be spending most weekends and evenings doing it up so those lovely roof down drives will have to wait Plan is to get a family hatch for now and another Zed when the house is done. Even more gutted as we were planning a 2 week tour of Northern Spain in it this September
PM me for details if you're interested as I haven't done the pics and advert yet. We're having one last drive out in it for a friends' wedding at Easter then it'll be ready for sale.
Good luck anyway
Andy

Re: WANTED:Looking for a new Zed 2.8
I am about to sell my 2.8 Orinoco individual edition which I have owned for the last 7 years.
I am only selling due to lack of use (and a small grandson:) .)
Car has done less than 49,000 miles and has covered less than 500 miles in the past year . It is a 99 on a 'T' plate - V5 currently at DVLA to remove my cherished plate.
For those not familiar with this model it comes in Orinoco green and is the last of the ‘fat arse cars’.
It was factory fitted with the later twin vanos 2.8 , Orinoco green metallic (looks steel blue in some lights). Factory fit ‘m’ rear light clusters, white front indicators and side repeaters. Power hood, aircon, chromeline interior and exterior. Biscuit nappa leather seats piped dark green. Heated locks /wash. Chrome tailpipes, Rollover bars.
It is stock apart from running later 17 inch sport wheels. MOT less than 200 miles ago. taxed until September. MOT until October
2 new Fulda tyres on rear and good Goodyear f1 eagles on front with loads of tread. Original unmarked 16 inch wheels could be included in a private sale (stored in my loft for past 5 years).
4 green lights on service indicator. Full history from new.
Car is kept in heated garage under BMW cover with ctech battery charger permanently connected.
Condition wise Gloucester independent BMW Specialist says it is the best Z3 that they maintain.
The car was originally register for 2 years to Simon Bates who I believe was connected with Bates BMW who serviced the car from new until I bought it. The middle aged lady I bought it from only sold it due to illness –she bought it from the original dealership.
I have covered around 13,000 miles during my ownership – mainly long trips with very little town useage.
I am not available for viewing until after 26th May due to holiday.
Car is in Gloucester.
Looking for £4950 ono

Re: WANTED:Looking for a new Zed 2.8
My 2.8 was up for sale for a few weeks back in January before I moved abroad for 4 months, but I didn't find a buyer in time. I'm returning home early June and will put it back up for sale then. See here:

Hi Phil,
Thanks for letting me know but the mileage is too high for what I am after. Good luck with the sale though, it certainly seems to have had a lot of work done!
