WANTED E85 3.0 manual
Hello,
I am looking for a low mileage manual 3.0 E85 (well under say 60k or therabouts). Can go higher on the mileage if it's mint. I'm located near Stevenage, Hertfordshire.
I've seen a few at dealers but if I can buy from an enthusiast that would be much better!
Let me know if you have something, cheers.
OR an LHD of any flavour would be handy as well......

Welcome to the forum.
It might be worth posting a "WANTED" on the Buy and Sell Z4 pages, after you've had a look at the ones for sale.
Good luck with your search, and don't forget to post photos once you've found one!

Sorry, it certainly is there!

That is good to hear! I have seen a fairly wide price range so far as well for what seem to be similar cars.

Well I don't know what you have looked at, but there was a facelift in 2006 so that may have a bearing on what you have seen.
Pre-facelift 6 cylinder models had the M54 engine - the 3.0i that produced 231 bhp.
Facelift 6 cylinders got the N52 engine - the 3.0Si that produced 265 bhp. (The facelift 2.5Si had 218 bhp).
The facelift also brought some stying changes, like clear indicator lenses, and facelift cars do seem to command a premium.
Happy hunting.

The facelift 3.0si actually produced 262bhp, the 265 figure equates to ps which is a lesser amount compared to bhpMr Tidy wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 1:19 am Well I don't know what you have looked at, but there was a facelift in 2006 so that may have a bearing on what you have seen.
