Started the look for one as joined ownership with my son as we had great times with the two Z's I have had.

Search didn't start too well as the first I was interested in was a CAT car, so moved away swiftly from that (2008 3.0si black / red).

Requirements are:

- 3.0 only
- Under 80k miles
- Red heated seats
- Manual gearbox


Anything else I can retrofit.

Let's see how long this search takes.
Current:
911-50 Black - unique spec
X5M - 575 hp of fun in a V8
Abarth 595 Comp.
Golf Clipper - collectors item
Z4 3.0si Black Sapphire
VW ID.3

Previous:
Z4M Silver Grey - non flimper spec (gone to Bing)
Z4 3.0 Toledo

Perhaps you should state your preference for Coupe or Roadster?

'cos you'll have a hell of a job fitting a different roof....

You will need a healthy budget as most of the 3 litres I have seen for sale seem to have very high mileages- 100k plus. But good luck with the search

Yep, thanks. It would also be nice to be able to take a car somewhere and park it without having palpetations every time :lol:
