You dont buy a 2.2 Z3 to get down Santa Pod whip your willy out and compare pointless 1/4 mile times :D To be fair, you dont buy the 3.0 for that either, you really need the M :wink: With an autobox the 3.0i is not much quicker than a high performance 2.0 TD, and about comparable with the 180hp 120...

Oh no, I paid a little bit more than that for it, I contacted the seller after the auction because it didnt reach reserve and did a deal directly. I dont like to commit to cars unseen.

Why only a 2.0? Not that there is anything wrong with them, but now that the cars are 8-10 years old there isn't much in it between a 1.9 and a 3.0 in terms of purchase price... MPG is not dissimilar between the 6 cylinder motors, although you might get a few more MPG out of the 1.9 4 cylinder. My n...

FS Hard top fitting kit (rear brackets) for 2001 Z3
My Z3 had a hard top which I declined to purchase. The fitting kit has been left on the car and is no use to me. It is NOT a genuine BMW bracket but a fabricated metal one. That said, it does the job very well (I test drove the car with the hard top fitted. Reasonable offers please, or a straight sw...

Free chrome gills - for a swap with Sienna Red ones!
Just about to pick up a Siena Red Z, it has the chrome gills. I will be looking to change these for Sienna coloured gills if anyone is interested in a swap? Yes Sienna is rare and it's a long shot but I thought it worth a post before I try and source some Sienna gills. If anyone with a Sienna wonder...

After just under a year with a S2000 as a second car I have decided to upgrade. I sold my S2000 at the weekend and have since been consideri...

You never know! Well, I thought I had the bargain of the year, an 08 plate with half decent spec for only £22000 :shock: (assumed after negotiation, it's up for £22,850) There had to be a catch and there indeed was...it had missed the 1200 mile service by 1800 miles :head: Gutted.

Some very good advice in this thread. 1. Only drive as fast as you can see to stop! Ok, sometimes this is not possible (blind 90 degree harpins) but most of the time it is possible to do this. 2.
