I am back in a Z3

[Axelf]

Well I managed to find a Z close to me , I did originally go to see a silver 1.9 he had for sale but then spotted this in his garage (he had 3 Z3’s)
So I have opted for
2.0 6cyl
117000 with full history
Electric roof
Heated seats
And it drives nice and smooth... a bit gutted that it’s another black one just like the 2.8 I used to have ... the main thing is I am back in a Z3

We need to keep in touch. Got my second one (sold the first one 7 years ago). Picked up a 2000 titanium silver with 117K a couple of weeks ago. After having it a week, realized it will need a cooling system overhaul but overall she is in good shape! Welcome back. Know the feelings you are experiencing. For me, it seems like I came home!

Hi yes I made the mistake of selling my first one , this just had a new thermostat fitted last week but with every second hand car there will be faults

Glad you found yourself a Z mate

Why'd you sell your first one? Genuinely curious

That black looks beautiful!

Needed money at the time but now I am back

The 2.0l is under rated IMO, I used to hang on to 2.2s in mine but you have to drive them bloody hard, one thing you will notice is the lack of torque against the 2.8

I never bought the 2.0 for speed , like I say I have had the 2.8 and just sold my motorbike that had 160bhp that was dammmm fast.. no just bought this as I issued the Z and just pleased I have managed to find one I like and so close to home too

And I have had my share of fast cars in the past

What I have noticed is
1.. it has a full set of unmarked wheels with brand new winter tyres ( I now need a set with summers on)
2.. o/s headlight bulb is bright white and the n/s is more yellow

Looking at the picture in your Avatar I would have guessed the other way around re the headlights mate. Probably just odd bulbs. Osram Nightbreakers are a good item.

I think one of the Scottish members was selling a set mate.
