Hi guys, I'm 23 years old and looking to buy a Z3. I did want a Z4 on PCP but Directline won't insure me on one so I'm going to hopefully get my hands on a Z3 2.2 Sport instead. I looking at a 02/52 Reg. When did the face lift occur and what did it involve? Any help would be appreciated. Plus if anyone is looking to sell, please get in touch!
Cheers guys - looking forward to your replies!

2.2 02/52 is one of the last registered, so it's definitely facelifted (back end mostly which happened in 99).
2.2's are cracking cars, has longer service (have we been here before anyone?), brilliant 6 cylinder burble (John M's always sounded good to me) and plenty quick.
When you're looking, check tyres and look for one with a front strut brace (use a search to find out why).
Why are you buyign now BTW?
Happy hunting.

Facelifting also saw chrome rings being placed around headlamps, introduction of 5 new exterior colours, launch of steptronic auto gear box, a new centre console layout and more sound proofing for the soft top.
Good luck with the purchase!

Marvellous,
Just realised. I test drive the car you bought before finding mine!
Nice car. Just a little out of my budget at the time.
I think we're quite close - do you recognise the scenery on the photo?

I spent most of my money on whisky, women and Z3's. The rest I just wasted.
