Black/Light grey Z1 for sale

Post by Green Genie »

If I didn't already own one... I'd be inclined to take a look at this, same colour combo as Tony's which does look good.

... with an upgraded roof from Bertone the original manufacturer at a cost of £4,600...

What's that all about? Never heard of Bertone's involvement with the Z1 and a search in this forum on "bertone" gives just one hit - this post!

Ah yes, another one with steering rake adjustment! (assume not Bertone)

I think Bertone was involved in engineering the E30 convertible. Perhaps the confusions stems from there. That doesn't explain how the roof has been upgraded. Could this be a reference to the hardtop? I seem to remember that Bertone was involved with that. In which case, it's a pretty odd way to describe it!

I think you mean Baur for the E30 convertible? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karosserie_Baur

Of course, you're right. I thought Bertone did the development of the E30 proper cabrio while Bauer did the targa version.
In fact, Bauer developed both.

The car looks very nice and appears to be reasonably priced for the mileage. I like the colour combination.
