Looking to repair and keep it as it looks like a nicely kept car. Would be great to track down some service history as it came with nothing but the keys

Was this copart / kent? Or was it another one?

It was Copart Bristol

Just curious... saw one listed in Kent fairly recently. Good luck repairing.

Thanks, the repair looks very easy. I saw that one, think it was a higher mileage car though

Oh no just seen this post

Guy only had a it a year, and its written off

I did hand over all the documentation at sale, but I *might* have photos of the service history etc. let me have a dig through the phone and come back to you.

If not do you maybe still have the buyer's name and contact details?

I was actually just looking for exactly that, and have found the details. obviously i would need to ask him permission to send the guy on here his personal number but will check.

I found receipts for the following:

MPS4 and fitting
Cam cover gasket
Gear and engine oil

But nothing with the service book on it.

I will message the previous owner see if he is ok with his number being shared.

Thanks so much that would be amazing. The damage is really light so hopefully the car will go back together nicely. I have owned z4s’ for the last 12 years, this will be my third so a bit of an enthusiast. Even though it’s registered as damaged it would be nice to have the history as this one will be a keeper. Feel free to pass him my number if he gets back in tough 07920874231

Cheers Paul, actually the guy I sold it to replied to say he sold it on last year (he had an opportunity to buy an M3 that needed restoring so changed plans) he said he sold it to a guy in Bristol. He has tried messaging the guy online but no response

If he comes back to me I will drop him your number.

PM your email address Paul and I will email over the receipts I have. Its not much but at least it adds something. And I had a build thread on here and PH as per the advert which are live, you can take evidence of my ownership from there. I do remember when I bought it, it was fully serviced at BMW for like first 6-7 years of its life, the guy I bought it from his son worked at Fords so he used to get it serviced there. It had full history though. Water pump hadn't been done though so I would probably put that on the list.

That’s really helpful, thanks. Makes sense as it came from Copart Bristol.
I should be able to trace all the BMW history through their service department. Anything done by other dealers or independents will be like looking for a needle in a haystack I suppose. There’s a chance the last owner still has the service book though

My email address is [email protected] thanks again for your help
