Red Z3 1.9 1997 for sale in Norwich :-(
I am selling my beloved red BMW Z3 as she's simply not getting the use she was. The car currently has 106,000 miles and has never missed a beat. I have maintained this car fastidiously myself as I'm an enthusiast. The car will come with the rare and VERY expensive Z3 repair operations manual. Mechan...

Re: Rear wheel bearings on Z£ M44
Thanks to all who replied. I think despite my years of working on various old bangers, I'll let the trained take the strain this time!!!

Re: Standard or Super unleaded?
I use V power or tesco 99RON in both my M44 and my FJR bike. Better performance definitely and on the bike, over 10% better fuel economy. It also seems to run much smoother in both cases. Proven benefits for no overall extra cost. I never bother with 97 RON stuff as the benefits are not so pronounce...

Rear wheel bearings on Z£ M44
Hi there, Has anyone replaced the rear wheel bearings on one of theses ordinary 140hp four bangers? Mine has developed a deep drone at the back which has suddenly come on. Roadspeed dependent not engine speed so I have discounted a shift in the exhaust system. I think the ROS one may have gone but c...

Re: Dare I say...Spitfire/MGB Roadster
Having rebuilt a number of old Triumphs over the years, vitesses, GT6, Spitties, I reckon the Spit is a good choice. Chassis-wise, reasonably straightforward as long as the main rails are OK, simple and cheap to repair, go for a later 1500 with the swing spring on the rear, don't believe all the cra...

More rear window malarkey
Chaps and chappettes,
The rear window on my 1998 1.9 needs to be replaced, I understand the choice to be zipped or sewn in, mine is currently zipped, anybody got any advice either way or could recommend a good fitter somewhere near East Anglia?
Cheers MMF
