hardtop ?

Adam

I'm game for this.

Adam

Nope...they fit all Z3's

Adam

Today was the first day since October I was able to put my roof down. It was fitting that it was valentines day...I fell in love with the car all over again. It's coming up to 3 years of ownership...everyday It still makes me smile.

Adam

Maybe if you could colour code them they might be ok but plain black...doesn't do it for me.

Adam

Thank you johnjo.

Deal done.

Thank you, very much appreciated.

I have tried partsgateway etc. but all to no avail. I'm actually really suprised at the lack of them about.

The z3's on ebay that are breaking have all replied that headlight units have all gone.

Adam

Wanted (FOUND) Maybe a long shot but I have tried the usual parts search people to no avail and breakers on ebay. Before I venture to the Stealer I thought I would try here. Part no. 67168389947 Vertical aim adjuster for my o/s headlight. Part no. 3 in picture on link http://www.realoem.com/bmw/show...

Personally I would put a BMW badge there. Each to there own though with taste.

Adam

Thats exactly what I have got out of them. Actually the e-mail was quite abrupt from them.

The karts are not twin engined. The track is about 530m in length. the karts (our new ones being rolled out for easter) are de-restricted 200cc 4 strokes. In testing they are hitting 35-37mph on the straight using the GPS. Slipstreaming upto 40mph. The track is wide and flowing. I know that traditio...

Adam

I had the same after I contacted BMW UK customer service about the boot spot weld issue. The guy said that BMW UK would not take any action but trade your car under scrappage and have a new 118d....err no thanks

Adam

Driving home tonight I suddenly thought of the following. My father and a friend own an outdoor karting track in South Wales. How about a Zroadster.net karting event? Maybe incorporate it into a cruise down this way at some time. For our own circuit hire we would be looking at £30-£35 per competitor...

Adam

The old fishing scam. A guy in my street had this done and his L200 Pickup truck got taken. I always have my car keys on me. Even in the house. The only time they leave me are at night and showering (left on bedside cabinet), At the gym I put them in a sock and into my shoe...then its locked in the ...

Shell garage

Adam

I try to only use Super unleaded (shell) (I also have a reward card with shell for fuel vouchers). Personally I feel the car runs better on it. I have found my cars through the years all seemed to go better on a certain fuel. Be it my C reg Nova on Texaco, Volvo S40 on BP and now the 2.8 Z3 on the S...

Adam

I should of thought that you would have to erase the fault from the system.

Spotted this Z3 about 13.30 or so at junction 30 M5 today

reg: S819 HDV

I think it was boston green (cant really remember) but had a chrome windscreen surround.

Anyone from here?

I was with my boss in a boring, slow, Renault RX4

Adam

BMW UK seem to not give a monkeys at all. My local main dealer that does all work on the car (Sytners Newport) were very helpful and asked me to keep them updated regarding what I hear from BMW UK. I think I will go back to Sytners as they were eager as to its a nice job for them financially. Maybe ...

Adam

Dragging up this old thread again. After finding two failed spot weld on my car I contacted bmw using the e-mail and some other references to cases etc. One case was on a vehicle that is slightly older than my own. after a standard "sorry but we dont want to know e-mail" I replied question...

Adam

Sorry I was also joking too..... a case of the internet forum misinterpretation of whats being said again.

maybe i should use more smillies to show that its in jest

How does the bloke who drives the snow plough get to work? He does something that 90% of the british workforce forget they can do.......WALK The amount of people that have shurked off today is probably crazy. Alot of people in this country have no work ethic. I walked over 1 hour to work. I'm old s...

Adam

The plow is an attachment which will have some kind of hydraulics on it that will raise and lower the plows height.

It would be funny to see a plow not raise in time and wipe out a hump.

Adam

Merry Christmas everyone. I know i'm not a regular poster but having used the site for over 2 years....Thanks to everyone that has contributed. Your advice has been invaluable and has given me zedding pleasure. Best wished to everyone and have a prosperous new year. I'm raising a glass to everyone. ...

Adam

well it looks like i'm going to be another one taking this up with BMW. Having read the topics regarding this I finally got around to having a look. the first visible spot weld under the cd changer has the tell tail look of the problem. The previous owner has put some very sticky :head: sound proofi...

Adam

I too have had the "is it new" question" and jaws drop when they here the age and mileage.

Even had the "you must be doing alright to buy one of those"

It gives me a warm feeling of pride. A Z3 is a classic in my eye, regardless of age, mileage, engine etc.

Adam

Actually I was another sad person that tried it. I was out by about .2 on the trip though. I would of taken a pic but I was on the M4 at the time.

Adam

Try putting a couple of bowls of salt in the footwells over a couple of nights, it will absorb alot of water. I did this recently and it made a world of difference.

Adam

Poor idle?

have you done the old favourite...ICV, idle control valve.

Adam

The old autoglym super resin polish trick will clean it up. simply polish your rear screen inside & out with the super resin polish. might need a few treatments but will work a treat.

My rear screen when I bought the car was like a white piece of plastic. now..crystal clear.

Adam

It must be gutting to come out in the morning to see that. I must admit that I do have an expensive kenwood system in my car. I always do the following though. #1 When parked the face plate comes off and goes with me. #2 I leave my glove box open for all to see that I haven't just put it in there so...

Adam

I have one of those roadster solutions covers. Spot on for use over here with our winter. My car is a daily drive and I use my cover throughout winter. Great to come out in the morning, pull the cover off and be frost free and drive off when all my street are scraping away. Well worth it. Packs down...

Adam

What are you people doing? I've done lots of miles in wet weather and have never experienced more than the odd wriggle. That's one of the reasons I stick with Falken tyres, after hearing Goodyear FI users tell tales of tail-happy behaviour in the wet. If you drive in the wet as if you were in a Gra...

Adam

Sounds like lamda sensor. I had similar at my last m.o.t. There should be two. Pre and post cat sensors.

Adam

I looked at it before and yes it can be done. I have found this link : http://www.mgracing.com/inner_covers.htm I did find a site in germany but I cant remember it at the moment. as soon as I do find it I will post it up. edit: Just found this: http://www.carhood.com/bmw.htm they list a headliner.

Adam

What kind of % discounts are on offer on your products that are suitable for the BMW range? or is there a promo code that we can enter into the checkout for a special discount?

Adam

Well after seeing the video and the quality compared to other products I have tried..CHEERS MATE

...there goes some more of my hard earned wonga. I should have mine delivered tomorrow.

I will try to get it fitted and post a video of it on the front of the Z over the weekend.

senseless vandals. Enjoy your holiday. Come back and spend some quality time with the car by getting it back to its best. I know it will cost you £££ but I feel that its rewarding and you build a bond with a car as you work on it and do things yourself. I have taken a much more active approach with ...

Adam

I have had 3 cars that I sold withing 2 weeks of being on autotrader. Yes you do get the odd time waster but all cars have been sold in under 14 days. all for or very near to the asking price. Autotrader would be my first port of call if I had to sell again.

omg who would do that to any car...even a zed.
I am glad i'm not the only one that looks at wheel centres that way also

Adam

to be fair the more i think about it i do think what the point. i'm probably the only obsessive compulsive person that actually looks at emblems on the wheel centres and feels the nervous twitch inside of "ooo it would be better if they were all the right way" a bit of OCD kicking in again...

Adam

My father was telling me last night about how on his old MG Magnette ZA he made his wheel centre caps rotate so that when his car stopped the MG logo always showed the correct way. I have heard of this before and I though "now i wonder if thats possible to do with the BMW emblems on my wheels.&...

Adam

thanks for the heads up on that...I bidded.

Adam

A sample of the tint would be awesome. I will pm you my details. I would rather know then take the conservative route and get the clear only to wonder "should I of had the tint"

Adam.

Adam

Having had a good look at your site and hearing thoughts on here...roll on payday. I have just got to decide, tinted or clear. Cant really tell on the site how much of a tint it is. mmm decisions.
