Post by Simonsen » Mon Apr 24, 2023 7:01 pm

Hi all I have a 2.5 z4 convertible but I am looking for 3.0 coupe or later e89 in automatic. I want a project so looking for something that requires tlc or repair ( new engine). Higher mileage cars also welcome. Budget - flexible. Can collect car with a trailer

Not sure where you’re located but with a trailer :thumbsup:

I’ve toyed with this several times but don’t have the time or space just now

    Was thinking about this one even asked seller about it but :
    - engine will probably need changing ( at best it has bent valves - worst hole in the block and bent pistons)
    - rather difficult to find this engine for sale couldn't find one.
    - se model i don't mind changing front bumper, but then I would have to source m sport interior
    - wheels looks like original were robbed and e90 wheels put on as it looks 4x4 on them lol.

    That's a shame, would have been an interesting barn to have a look round whilst there.

    Looked really promising but it stood 4 years in that garage and although dry I bet there would be loads of issues to sort out.

    I would imagine those Z4s have been bought by a breaker
