Hi,

These ones are just reprints
You can find genuines ones on ebay quite often

Hi friends, If you are interested, I have a limited quantity of recommended gearbox oil for Z1 and M3 E30 for sale, the "famous" MOBIL SHC 630. This oil is almost impossible to find in shops or BMW dealers. I am selling it 30 EUR for 2 liters + shipping worldwide. Shelf life of this oil is...

F.Brossaud

Moreover this kind of patches are not here because the car has not been carefully maintened but because the hood mecanism has not been carefully designed by BMW enginners :? Have you ever heard that there was an internal BMW recall for cars to solve this problem but I have never seen any car with th...

Hi, I just get the last issue of french magazine BM World and we have 2 pages about the event 8-) BTW, I am currently working on a new tour new year. It will take place in september 2009 in the Dordogne/Lot area. The are is already invaded by british people so you wouldn't be disorientated :D Frederic

F.Brossaud

Hi,

Don't be afraid by rust on the exhaust.
Due to the specification of this part, It will take years and years before you have a hole

F.Brossaud

Hi, I am selling one Z1 wheel The wheel doesn't seem to have big damage but has been scratched all round due to normal use and wear. Not good for "concours d'elegance" :wink: I can send hi-res pictures if necessary. I am asking 150 EUR + shipping http://195.154.158.34/images/315/3153849786...

Hi Tony, Please to see that you had a safe trip back home but I am sorry to heard such bad news :? I am afraid you car was cursed because we said too many times that your car was beautiful with french photographer :D I would like to thank you again because you were VERY patient with this reporter du...

F.Brossaud

Or 21...
You must be able to reach the latch from the hood. It won't be easy (you must have more or less 10/15 cm space avalable between the floor and the folded roof but I think you can reach them.

Good luck !

F.Brossaud

hum... it sounds like a broken wire

F.Brossaud

Sorry, I don't get it

It's may be something related with UK advertisement ?

F.Brossaud

It seems he likes Toyota Corola much more than Z1

F.Brossaud

Hi Friends !

Have a nice trip
See you on saturday morning

Frederic

F.Brossaud

If memory serves, the Z1 did not have side-repeaters from the factory, but they were a requirement for import into the UK I never succed finding the right explanation for side blinckers. They are factory standard on French cars except for the very first ones. Anyway, if you want side blinkers, go d...

Hi, For such problem, it can almost be ... anything :oops: Electrical trouble, faulty ground somewhere, bad immobilizer, bad Ecu, bad ignition coil, bad fuel pump... it can be a big mess to find the faulty component because when the car is running well, garage can completely dismantle it and test ev...

F.Brossaud

My God ? What did happen ?

F.Brossaud

I would like to come on the tour in May with my Z1 but would like to stay at a friends house in beaugency instead of a hotel. Is it still possible to come and meet up with you guys? I don't know if you check on a map but Beaugency is around 170 km / 2h driving from the meeting area. If you intend t...

F.Brossaud

They can be found quite regularly on ebay.de
But don't forget to check if the seller has all parts to fit it on car.

F.Brossaud

Small UP !
It's still possible to register for this Tour.
25 Z have already registered. If you don't want to miss this "European Meeting", let me know by PM

Frederic

F.Brossaud

Welcome !
I am very impatient seeing what is under the bonnet

F.Brossaud

Yes !

F.Brossaud

Hi,

I'm happy to see that zroadster.net is back even if messages for the last few weeks have been lost

Many thanks for those involved in this "resurrection"

Frederic

F.Brossaud

Obviously

It would be great if you could join us !
We'll have some Belgians too

I have just sent you an email with registration form in both french and english and few more details regarding this tour.

F.Brossaud

Let me know what you need, I have quite a lot of stuff about Z1

F.Brossaud

Hi,
Registration form sent by email

Be careful with french cops, speed enforcement is quite tough nowadays in France

Don't forget to bring cash to pay speeding ticket directly on the hard shoulder

F.Brossaud

Hi,

For anybody interested by this tour, please :
1 - send me a PM with your email adress
2 - I will send you the registration file for the week end
3 - send me the money

Regards

Frederic

F.Brossaud

Hi,

Unfortunately... NONE until now

Thanks to this update on the post, I noticed that I completely missed sfh3l and TJS enquiry

I have just sent send schedule by PM, I would be happy if they could join us.

Frederic

F.Brossaud

I don't remember if it's with or without VAT

But anyway it's much less than 1500 EUR VAT and metallic paint included

F.Brossaud

No, it's a kind of black vinyl you can find on some car's from the 70 or on the BMW E30 hardtop

F.Brossaud

If I remember, just few days, may be two weeks maximum depending if they are very busy or not.

This bodyshop is well known by BMW owners around Lyon, they have already resprayed several Z1 from french club members, so they know the job pretty well.

F.Brossaud

Hi,

I guess you will have some very different quotations from various workshops.

There is a company in France close to Lyon that can make a Z1 respray for around 1000 EUR including removing and refitting of all body panels.

Regards

Frederic

F.Brossaud

What is a UK Spec Z1? Not just a speedo surely.... Don't forget the fuel gauge :wink: Anyway, Z1 IS a classic, whatever they can write because : - with the same mileage, value has not decreased for the last 10 years. - some cars more powerful and more recent are already selling for less than a Z1 (...

F.Brossaud

Hi, Congratulation, the car looks beautiful. Are you sure that the car will have MOT even with mixed tyres on the same drivetrain ? Regarding the air filter, I have never heard of this brand but it's always the same : these filters needs to be cleaned regularly with a special cleaner then sprayed wi...

F.Brossaud

Hi, Just for your information, a member of the french club bought one on Ebay UK 1 year and half ago at 14200 GBP including hardtop with 53000 km (30000 miles) on the clock. 50 miles for the last 3 years.. you can already take an appointment for a new timing belt and water pump :wink: Go to check th...

F.Brossaud

Basically, I think you should not be so worried by your "faded" nubuck seat :wink: As far as I remember, nubuck seats were not dark grey even when cars were new in dealers showrooms. If you have the opportunity to see a Z1 with very few miles, almost new, always stored in garage, you will ...

F.Brossaud

Hi, Most parts are available, in the worst case, you can find them on ebay, you just have to be patient :wink: BUT, it can be more critical is the frame and especially the floor is damaged. These parts are no more available and if the floor is damaged in some specific area, it can't be repaired ... ...

F.Brossaud

Whaaaa, that's great

F.Brossaud

My God, you are cursed

Stay far away from my zed

F.Brossaud

Hi, Due to the unexpected demand for this event, please confirm by MP as soon as possible that you are interested. If you didn't get the detailled schedule and registration fee from Phil, let me know, I will send it to you. I can't accept any more registration, I have to set up a kind of affirmative...

F.Brossaud

Hi,

eh ! wake up friends !
I wouldn't like to be flooded by british Z3

Frederic

F.Brossaud

Hi,

I was in contact with someone living in Brazil who wanted to have a Z1. As far as I know, import duties on used cars are UDGE, so it seems the only way to import one would be to find an unregistered one that would be considered as a "new" car.

Frederic

F.Brossaud

Hi,

PM sent for both of you !

Unfortunately, it seems that cloth interior (in fact all color but camouflage) wear away quite quickly

I only saw lemon interior here in France but it's always the same. What a pity

Hi Paul, I am always in the neighbourhood when someone speak about Z1 :lol: Currently working on a Z1 Z3 meeting in the Loire Valley in France for Spring 2008 (10-11 May), if you know some owners, you can spread the word. Anyway, we agree about colors. My favorite Z1 is THE ONLY ONE built with Purbl...

Hi,

I disagree on this point. Rare factory color combination will be more expensive than "usual ones".

Hi everybody,

I plan to organise a Z1 meeting in the Loire Valley, in the Saumur area (between Tours and Angers) the saturday, the 10th of may 2008.

Good food and vine, castle visit, we should spend good time there

Anyone would be interested ?
