Hi my name is Ray and I don't currently own a Zroadster but would like to. My past 2-seaters include a Triumph GT6, Toyota MR2 AW11, Lotus Elise S1, Honda CRZ and BMW Z4 E85. At the moment, the daily is a Skoda Yeti hence the wish for something more fun!
 
Gidday Ray.
 
Hi Ray and :welcome: to the forum from me too in Stafford.

Hey! Yes something soon! I have just seen the Z3 2.8 here for sale.
I quite like another Z4 or MR2. Are you happy with your 3.0i?

Love the 3.0, sounds ace and goes really well for a 25 year old motor. Discovered a few issues which are common but easy fixes once you get into the knowledge on here.

Fuels good, tax is bad. Running costs otherwise are good. Knowing what i know now id definitely be looking at specific bits to see if it's suffering from the known problems. MR2, they're a rare sight these days !

Good luck on the hunt, feel free to ask anything about the Z3

Nice! I hope to use the knowledge here or not would be better if I find a good one!
Yes finding a sorted MR2 will be difficult.

Thanks for the welcome! Stafford not too far from me.
I broke down once in nearby Stone!

Funny you should say that, my water pump let go at Stone, 8 miles from home. We were returning from a cruise round Wales so could have been a lot worse. ;)
 
Rix Motor Co Warrington way have one, up at near 14k though. 3.0 Z3, hard roof lowish miles. Was at 15k last week.
Cheeky 10k offer, certainly a car that'll appreciate IMO
