2005 E85 BMW Z4 Roadster 3.0i Manual £3950
Sadly the time had come to sell my Z4. It’s a 2005 manual 3.0i Z4 with 124k and I’m looking for £3950. Brentwood, Essex.
I bought the car in August 2021; to enjoy on a number of roadtrip holidays. The car has been a flawless companion for me and my partner on a number of fortnight long road trips; NC500, Peak District, Wales, Lake District and to the Pyrenees.
Under my ownership the car has benefited from a new Bosch s5 battery and a major service and fully replaced brake lines (RBM) in 2021. A minor service with new brake discs, pads and front callipers (upgrade to 3.0si spec) and diff and gearbox service (RBM) in 2022. And on Tuesday (20 Feb) the car will have an oil service and fresh MOT at Power Developments (local BMW specialist). Perfect for a lucky new owner to enjoy for miles and years to come.
The car is in good condition, but has a few age related marks as you’d expect; I’ve tried to capture these in the pictures.
Service History:
2007 15k Inspection 1 (Paul Bailey)
2008 22k Inspection 1 (BMW Croydon)
2009 35k Oil service (BMW Bromley)
2012 47k Inspection 1 (BMW Blackheath)
Previous Owner self service (with parts receipts) in 2015, 2016, 2018
2021 110k Oil service (specialist)
2022 113k inspection 2 (RBM)
2023 118k Oil Service (RBM)
Spec highlights:
Heated, memory, New England, M-Sport seats (with leather trimmed a-pillar and sun visors)
Upgraded 10 speaker stereo system (with sub behind seats)
Xenon Headlights
Cruise control
Cup holders
Factory fit M-Sport suspension
OEM windbreaker with boot mounting
Relocated roof motor
Rear parking sensors
Stormwerkz gear knob
Selling as I’m looking to get into a v8 while I can. Please feel free to ask any questions.

Oooh! If I wanted one to keep I'd be well into this!
Surely it won't be around long at that price.
