3.0Si Roadster - Sorry Deposit Now Taken
Reluctantly for sale due to space constraints having just bought yet another car today!
I already own two other E85 Z4s (a Z4M Roadster and an Alpina Roadster S) along with 3 other BMWs plus the car that I've just bought today. Therefore this car has had only light, caring use over my 4 years of ownership and has covered only circa 13K miles in those 4 years including one summer trip to the Black Forest and Switzerland. All other driving has been on easy A-roads or Motorways in the UK during my ownership. No City driving. Never abused!
Very reasonable running costs for such performance...cheaper Road Tax, good MPG and favourable servicing costs.
Benefits from superb N52 262 bhp engine with 0-60mph in c.5.6S and a (limited) top speed of 155 mph yet still easily returns mid-30s mpg!
Specs are:
'07 3.0Si Sport Roadster 64k miles with FSH
Silver Metallic
Black, heated, electric/memory leather Sports seats
Benefits from superb N52 262 bhp engine with 0-60mph in c.5.6S and (limited) top speed of 155 mph.
Goodyear Asymmetric tyres all round (Non-runflats...essential in my opinion!) . Very recent rears with near full tread. Good fronts circa 6mm. Original MV2 Alloys (no kerbing)
No modifications except iPod connector in glovebox, non-genuine wind-deflector and Osram Night-Breaker Plus headlamp bulbs.
All other usual 'Sport' refinements.
Current mileage is 64,356 miles and last serviced at 63,571 miles. Still showing 14,850 miles until next service due!
Service history is as follows:
03/11/09 Menzies BMW Stirling 21,149 miles Oil Service
13/10/11 Stratstone BMW Derby 32,151 miles Brake Fluid
30/11/12 Stratstone BMW Derby 38,959 miles Inspection I
10/09/13 Stratstone BMW Derby 43,293 miles Oil Service + Brake fluid
04/02/15 West Country Cars 51,838 miles Inspection II (incl. plugs and brake fluid)
23/02/17 BM Wizard BMW Specialist 56,651 miles Oil Service*
27/03/18 BM Wizard BMW Specialist 63571 miles Oil Service (vanos filters washed-out at this time also)
(*I only had this service carried out to satisfy a stipulation in the 3 year warranty that I had taken out when I first purchased the car. The on-board service indicator was actually still showing something like 8000 miles to go until it was needed on a mileage basis)
Hood in perfect condition and functions perfectly (drainage channels always kept clear)
New Bosch S3 Battery. Alternator replaced last week. Also has had one headlamp washer stalk replaced.
All tools, jack, First Aid Kit and Handbooks present. 2 Keys.
I have numerous photos of the car here: http://www.bmwclassics.co.uk/gallery/in ... lters=#pic
These were taken soon after I got the car. As said, it has covered only c13k miles since and so remains essentially in this same condition except for one small flake of paint off the front n/s bumper(NOT scuffed and approx. 10p size) that came off when I was cleaning some squashed insects off after returning from Switzerland! (It doesn't show badly in reality because the car is silver and the underlying primer is grey but I mention it for completeness and I'm happy to provide a photo for any genuinely interested buyer).
Genuine enquiries please.
£7500

A lovely car Derin. Sadly over my self declared budget, otherwise I’d be all over it.

Thanks Chaps. I'll actually be sad to sell it because in many ways it's the nicest to drive and live with out of the three Z4s that I own. In my experience, it's easily fast enough in the 'real'world' and the other two are too fast for me really...now that I'm a retired codger!

That looks superb.

Thanks Chaps!
I must admit that a time-based service history is a rarity amongst my cars! Because most of my cars do so few miles, I don't normally subscribe to them myself...LOL! I was only 'forced' to do it on this one because of the 3 year warranty I took out when I bought the car stipulated it. By my 'own rules' this car has been grossly over serviced!
For various reasons, I doubt whether my Z4M and Alpina Roadster have done more than 20-30 miles in the last 2 years and my E31 8-Series (with only 27K miles on the clock) has only done 2k miles in the last 13 years! Can you imagine what the servicing costs/mile would have worked out to on those if I'd stuck to time-based servicing on those?
