Looking for a 1999 Z3 (M44)

[herx]

Hi all

Within the next year or so I will be looking to buy a Z3 roadster as per topic subject. I don't mind spending time to find the right one cause I want a few bits and bobs like cruise control, metallic paint, hardtop preparation (with a hardtop, even better).

Currently have a 116i and a member on babybmw.net (may get rid of)

Cheers

Hi and welcome to the forum from Bognor Regis.

Hope you find the right car for you. There are lots out there.

Welcome. You're in the right place for some advice.

I'd suggest now is a good time to look as I don't exactly think Z3s will be flying out currently. Try and get yourself positioned engaging with sellers now, asking for lots of photos etc and hopefully agree a very keen price in principal for you when you can go out again.

I'd put aircon on my essential list.

Consider a jap import you will get a great spec and condition for price

Wow thank you all for the welcoming! You are right about aircon, plus passenger airbag and Rollover Protection System

It is amazing that despite the pandemic, cars are constantly pouring out on ebay for sale. Cheers everyone

Welcome to the forum but I do hope your not going to be viewing cars at the moment.

Absolutely staying at home - tomorrow it will be 2 weeks ... I just like browsing online and searching the VINs for factory options. Even if I find a candidate car, I will just keep it on my watch list, cause sellers are going to struggle to sell anyway. Stay safe everyone

Going straight out and viewing cars is not necessarily the right strategy anyway. I can be 95% certain I'm a buyer from the advert, photo, looking up options like you are doing, checking MOT history, HPI checking etc.
