How old is your Z3 ? Just thought it would be nice to see who has the oldest Z3 this is the build date which is under the bonnet not when it was registered and maybe the newest as well ? To start it off mine was built March 1997 anyones z older :wink:

I've forgotten the exact dates but my 2.2 Sport was built about two days before production ceased in June (was it July?) 2002. I suppose that means fewest glitches on the assumption that they'd all been remedied before then and that the first Z4 built had the most? :wink:

Aw shucks fellas! :oops:

I have now looked into it and the production ceased on 28 June 2002 and somewhere I found out that mine was 25 June. Anyway, the label says June 2002 :)
