- 3 litre Z3 pretending to be Italian exotica. Two previous E89 Z4s.
Just dropped my Z3 250GT california into the garage for it's second MOT (as it is now) plus oil and brake fluid change. Nervous about them working on my car and it getting an advisory-free MOT.
I spent hours yesterday checking everything works; lights, indicators, horn, fan, wipers, washers, etc. Then I put stickers on all the warning lights and switches so they know what they are. I also had to change the reg plates to standard yellow and white ones.
I gave them an A4 sheet with 'instructions' of how to get the wheels off and on if they need to, how to start the thing (two keys) and how to use the window switches if they need to.
I have also asked them to change the details on the MOT database to mirror those on the V5, as it is still showing as a Z3 on the MOT.
Hopefully it will all go smoothly and they won't damage my precious car. Makes me nervous though.
