I'm on the lookout for one if fellow members can keep their eyes peeled for me please.
I am looking for a <30k miler. Ideally an early model before the facelift rear wings. It must be manual and any engine bar the 1.8 or 1.9 8v
My engine of choice would be the 1.9 16v
I'd prefer to buy private if possible but not too bothered if it was from a trader if the car was right.
Many thanks in advance

Four sub 45K miles, pre-face lift 1.9s (M44 engine) currently on Autotrader nationwide. Two have the "pepper pot" wheels and one has non-OE oversize wheels.

Re: Looking for a low miler
Thanks. Yeah ive seen those but not really tickling my trout
Re: Looking for a low miler
Price rises dramatically once you go below the 50k mark. Kinda obvious statement but a definite price increase on the last few years.

Hi offyourmarks. What is your budget ? There is currently a rather nice looking 2000 (W) reg 2.0ltr Auto Z3 in Topaz Blue Metallic on E'bay with 35,750 miles on it at £6,000.00
This is the listing :- BMW Z3 2.0 Roadster Automatic (Only 35,750 miles). The car is in South Croydon,Surrey and at a used car dealership.

Happiness is a well kept Z3 and preferably running with the hood down - weather permitting.

I think <50k miles would be more appropriate and realistic. I quite fancy the M44 1.9 engine as I have enjoyed that engine in a variety of formats over the years
