Back and poss looking for pre-facelift 3.0 Roadster, Coupe or MC

Post by inkey$ » Wed May 09, 2018 9:32 pm

I may be returning to the fold.

If I do then i’d be looking for a 3.0, ideally with the following spec roadster:

- Unmolested (!)
- Sub 70k miles
- Manual
- Grey preference but open to options. Toledo Blue?
- 202 Wheels...or the other inner circle type (sorry, can’t remember wheel model). Or CSLs/VMR 710s
- FSH and stamps, obviously.
- Fully working roof motors.

Toying with a few options at the moment (including Si Coupes and MCoupes), but the above is a good start!

Thanks for reading and please PM me if you have anything that matches up and you’re looking to sell.

Breadvan went today, Steve. Four glorious years; I just couldn’t justify the value, sitting in the garage doing nothing and needing to be driven more than the 500 miles a year I was adding. I became more and more worried every time I took it for a drive.

Want something I don’t need to worry about too much but that I can look after and have some fun in. Also looking at various other options of course. The search is part of the experience!

Oh no! But I can understand your concerns now that Breadvan values are where they are.

Surely an Imola Red Z4MC must be a good option? :)

Good luck anyway with whatever you choose - I'm looking forward to the photos, but it would be great to see one or two of the Breadvan! :thumbsup:

Thanks all.

Yes it was a wrench but with increasing values I was just getting too nervous doing my 1000 miles a year. Still need my straight six fix, so time to find another contender for driving pleasure :)

Here are a few pictures from my final few hours with the breadvan for those interested.

Appreciate the heads up. She looks a great example; love those wheels. Think I’m after a manual though.

I wish these were cheap, our dog would have so much more space when she is dragged along in the Zed!
Looks great though op. Howcome you're not swapping for a z4mc?

Big :( :(

I loved that car. Must’ve been horrible not feeling like you could drive it.

Hope you find a replacement quickly, though the Yeti would be welcome at Brands, which we must do again soon.

Funnily enough when I was looking for the private reg pic last night I found this from our first run out in our ‘new’ cars iirc

I might be swapping for an MC. Haven’t quite decided yet. I’ve had two Z4Ms in the past. I’m at funds vs use vs man maths stage.

It was indeed a wrench, but was just the right time. New owner collects cars and is going to provide her with the vip treatment I never could :lol: Yeti Brands session soon would be cool. Or if I move on a car soon (likely) then I’m even more sorted. Great pic and happy memories of a cool ‘new cars’ drive out to Battle (I think).
