Looking for my old car - R85OWT

[Bubblegum]

Hey guys ,

Probably a really long shot this - I'm looking for my old Z3 and hoping someone knows of it's whereabouts, it was a silver 2.8. I sold it 5 or 6 years ago, I'm just curious as to what ever happened to it.

I randomly typed the number plate into Google (as normal people do) and found an article with it.

I cant click onto the article as it seems a paid subscription is needed, but managed to retrieve the picture on said article:

And a couple of when I owned it:

Greatly appreciated

Here's some more info i've found from a bit more googling

From the article you found on the telegraph (no i don't subscribe, but it let me read it for some reason!):
Roz Edwards, 49, owns a business and a BMW Z3, which she says is the perfect sports car for midlife: “Having a brand new sports car for me would be a bit too flashy, but my BMW Z3 has the most gorgeous lines and bodes well with my values of taking care of things.

And a bit more googling, looks like Roz owns Mannakin

And you can find Mannakin here...

Hope that gets you a bit closer!

Have a look on google maps.....that place would freak me out. Does demonstate how easy it is to build up a comprehensive profile of someone from their on line presence.

Is this your Zed?
