Friend had a z3 on his drive. Looked pretty clean. Story was that a girl he knew inherited it around 2016, didn't need it, sat in her garage for ages and then for whatever reason she went to let it go to one of those terrible predator companies like webuyanycar for £2k or something, so he said don't do that, here, I'll give you the £2k. So he doesn't even need it, he has 2 new range rovers, so it sits on his drive for a couple of years, and then he's moving house and clearing everything out and asks me if I'll help him get rid of it on ebay or whatever. When I look into it, he hadn't used it or serviced it or Motd it, so it's done 500 miles since 2016. Looks like it was well cared for til then, and looks very clean. Because no mot or service, ebayers are wary and bidding only goes to 1900.so I say don't let it go for that, here I'll give you the 1900. 2002 facelift 2.2 with 83000 miles. Telling myself 'give it an mot and service, and flip it on, maybe make a hundred quid, and get to drive a z3 for a few weeks. Instead I've sunk 10 grand into it in 2.5 months

Welcome from me near Lincoln. WOW what did you spend 10K on?

There's my spreadsheet of costs..
Nothing much to show for it really, was too easy to blow £10k, and lots more to do
Green is done, red is bought but not arrived yet, orange is arrived but not fitted yet, purple is not bought yet

Hi and welcome from me in north Oxfordshire. Any pics of your stereo install? Do post up more of your progress.
I need to see more of those rims please, I'm contemplating doing the same to my beyern mesh.
These rims get great compliments anywhere I go, the centre caps are cheap and plasticky though, I'm trying to see if I can find some sort of fabricated metal knock off spinner centres that could somehow be attached instead of centre caps. Will get some better shots

Some awesome stuff going on here. Keep the pictures coming. BTW, welcome to the group. 
Are these Z3 specific or do they need modding to fit? Do you have a link please?
I'm loving this build, more interior shots too please, pedals etc.
That's quite a spreadsheet,
