I'm about to buy my first Z4, but I've two small (very small) grandchildren. I've seen a Z4 offered with two folding rear seats. Can this be true?

autotrader has a Z4 for sale advertised with "folding rear seats" - click on the link above to see. I repeat - can this be true? It is sold by Need4speed in Dunstable. Whoosh.

Clearly the interior shot shows it to be a standard roadster. The seats are moved forward but there's no rear seats, nor space. You can see the speakers and storage boxes

Not the right car if you need a 2+2

'folding rear seats' is probably a 'cut and paste' error in the advert. As CJ said all Z4s are 2 seaters only. This pic of mine shows the set up more clearly:

I think you'd need folding rear passengers to fit down there :cry:

I mean you could fold the grand children and drop them in the boot but that's about it.

All Z4's are 2 seaters and there are no Z4's with any kind of rear seat.

Z4 seats are adjustable and so they can "fold" as well as move forward and go up and down. It's purely for seat adjustment so you're at a comfortable driving position. Theres not seating facilities behind...
