Hello and thank you letting me join the group.
I have just bought my first Z3 E36 2000 W reg automatic. I’ve always wanted one and the opportunity came up.
It needs a lots of tlc, the roof is very dirty and the bodywork needs a good polish and the bonnet is faded. There’s some trim adrift inside and the seat belt holders are broken.
The anti roll bar bushes are advisories on the last MOT and it needs a tyre.
But that said, the engine sounds good, the gearbox feels good and there’s no visible signs of rust.
Most of what needs doing appears to be quite common for the car.
I’m looking forward to some warm days to get started on it all.

Hi Jen, welcome from me near Lincoln. Post some pictures of your car, we all like pictures. Where are you located please?
Sounds like general, usual old Z3 problems, enjoy working through them.

Tony.
