Very nice original looking Z with my fave OEM wheels :thumb:

A previous owner has already fitted clear headlight and sidelight units (from an ///M probably as they look pre facelift ?). Might be worth you sourcing clear front side indicators to finish it off ?

You really do learn something new every day.. i did not know it had been fitted with clear head and side lights, although i did notice the indicators and put them on my to do list. Are they hard ro source?

Clear side indicators can be sourced from parts dept at dealers but you can get them cheaper on eBay if your patient.

It's a popular mod to switch the headlights and has saved you quite a bit of dish.

Hopefully the headlight change wasnt due to a bad front end shunt :( Ill swap you for a set with amber indicators if you want :)

Hi, big Zed welcome from me too. Great choice of engine :thumb: pity about the colour :wink: only joking, the silver surfers will welcome you into their zed fold :D

I'd say I'd look out for you when up in Glasgow but it's huge so chances are slim, have to say see loads of Z4's in the West End, never seen a Z3 yet :(.

Happy Zedding :drive

Not a bad looking car, even if I say so myself. :wink:

Last of the pre-facelift 2.8s, and with the Twin Vanos engine, I should imagine, looking at the 'T' reg. Mine was built in March 1999 and registered in April 1999.
