Looks nice Tony although looking at its mot history I'd be wanting a good look around the underneath the word corrosion pops up more than once

Yes mate, but that can depend on the tester to a degree. But any car of that age you would want to inspect for yourself, I know I would.

Top money for a car with 124k on the clock

Agreed but at the same time it's a 3.0 Dakar sport super rare nearly every Dakar on this forum bar the couple of m models is a 2.2 Dakar sport @Brian H has a 3.0 Dakar sport and I think his is the only one on here .

Shame it's not got the original rims more desirable if it did

 

[t-tony]

Could have had those rims from the factory?

No e46 wheel rear wrong offset

Sits to far in at rear need spaced 9mm to bring it to where it should be then another 10 mm or so to make it flush so 20 mm spacer would be nice on rear that's what mine needs with style 68.

Worth buying and fitting original style wheels then? Doesn't seem a big problem to do that.

Just what I used on my Z3 then?.

Quite rare 3 L in that colour as Stevo said, first I've seen. £5k for 125k car is top money though.

If I had the space I’d be tempted. Price doesn’t look unreasonable in the context of some of the listings that have gone on Autotrader over last couple of weeks.
Bodywork looks ok. Sell the roof and put the money into sorting the brakes and suspension, and it could be a solid car.

Bargain as I paid double that for my 3.0 sport last year! Although mine was 2 previous owners with 68k and immaculate Maybe I was just silly

E46 M3 Style 68. Not a Z3 option.

Out of interest do you know what the wheels would have been on that as standard?

These are from my 2001 3.0 sport

Are they the Style 78's? Cheers

Thanks Steve - maybe there's a Dakar Yellow in my future after all and I can swap the wheel's off the 2.2 I've recently acquired
