Hi from Steve

[Stephen Marney]

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for accepting me into ZroadSter.org - I'm delighted to be here.

I recently bought a mint condition Z3 3.0i Roadster... and love it to bits.

At the risk of boring you, let me tell you that I've loved them since I first drove a brand-spanking new Z3 back in 2001 - but didn't buy it for reasons I'd be delighted to share over a glass of something some time.

But the love of the Z3 lines has never left me - and I've continued to admire them over the years.

In mid 2017, whilst scrolling through Autotrader, looking for a practical car - I stumbled across the Z3 ads. Of course, there were quite a few, some loved more than others. I believe mine was not simply loved, but doted upon all its life. So, I drove 100's of miles to see it - and bought it on the spot. How much was it?????? Who cares, it's a thrill for me to own a car that I've always and still love.

Now; I'm proud and honoured to be a part of the group... can't wait to meet you somewhere out in the country sometime.

Cheers,
Steve

[Stephen Marney]

yes, LR, it is. It's stock standard though... but I'd like to enhance it a bit - perhaps smarter wheels.

Hi Steve, and welcome from a fellow 3.0 litre owner. That's smart looking Zed you have there. How about a few more pictures please?
Where are you based Steve?

 

[Stephen Marney]

Hi Philip, I'm in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire. And you?
I promise to post a few more pics soon... I'm on holiday just now and the car is being cherished in it's garage until I get home...
Great to hear from you - I love your blue Z - and nice set of wheels also...
Cheers,
Steve

Hi, welcome from Mansfield.

Looks like a great Zed! Hopefully see you at drive out somewhere next year.

Be careful with modifications, as once you start... you just can’t stop!
Once you start to get under the car, preventative care starts to take hold
