Reluctantly, I am selling my baby! 'Fritz' is a now appreciating sort after 1997 2.8 pre facelift ‘wide arse’, in Montreal Blue. 25 years old this month and owned by me since June 2013. In that time he’s been well looked after and well-travelled, Le Mans 24 & Classic, Spa and Nurnburgring plus.
As you can see from the list below, I have kept on top of things and sorted when required. I upgraded to my Z4 E89 last year, and along with my 330, I can’t really justify three Beamers taking up space on the drive! Therefore, with a very heavy heart I am going to let it go.
My Zed is not concours, there is a bit of 25 year patina obviously, few minor ware scuffs on the seats, but it is extremely reliable, therefore I would not hesitate to set sail into Europe again tomorrow if I needed to.
