It has been for sale for a couple of months. The Ad says Breyton wheels? look more like Cruise 134's to me but I could be wrong.
The car looks in fantastic shape, check the history, phone Evolve for more detail on the Remap.
Above all, if you are happy with the car and the price then go for it

The guy comes across as a real car enthusiast and its the 2nd M Roadster he has owned, I was a dubious when he said he lives in the middle east, but he seems like a nice chap and confirmed the previous owners and ran through all the paperwork on the phone etc.
Last thing I am going to do is give Evolve a call to check out the work they have done on the car, does anyone have any experience of using them at all.
He has taken 9k for the car with 66k on the clock so I am pretty happy with the deal, hopefull I should enjoy the drive back from Cambridge on Friday afternoon with the roof down.

I've used Evolve for an induction kit and remap. They are pretty well know for BMW tuning and did a lot of work on the Z3m (thats why I used them).
They are members on this forum so I'm sure if you explain to them why your asking they will confirm what they thought of the car/ what was done.
Good luck, looks like a nice example
(ps have you specifically asked about the Vanos & spot welds in the boot? - if they don't know what your going on about ask them to send you a photo of the boot with te carpet removed under the CD changer - there are examples on my post here Diff mount failure
