I have 3 items from an E89 project car which are now surplus to my requirements. Boot Lid in Alpinweiss (stripped of all other items) - £30 Boot trim panel carpet (part number 7191259) - £20 Stop light/third brake light in Alpinweiss - £15 Other photos are available, please message me and I’ll...

So pleased you like the car and thank you for such gentlemanly negotiations. I hope you enjoy the car as much as I have over the past few years.

PRICE REDUCED - Want to clear my garage! For sale is a nearside rear light from a 2010 Z4 (E89). The indicator cluster is defective - some LEDs are lighting, but dimly, and 2 are not working at all. Might be a useful project for someone proficient with electronics, otherwise for spares. £50...

Well here we are, October and the MOT has expired. Still no light units available anywhere, so the car is now an ornament. I get that there are bigger problems in the world, and this is a very specific problem for those of us affected, by my God what an absolute shambles. I can’t drive my car...

Thanks all, for your very helpful responses. For info I took the unit out this morning and found it had already been bodged by a previous owner and it has been left as a completely unsealed unit. No wonder moisture was getting in! I’ll try drying it out as suggested while I wait the 4 weeks...

My near side rear indicator failed this week so I naively thought It would just be a bulb change. How wrong can you be? Thanks to the help on this forum I now realise I need to change the entire unit (thanks BMW, great design) and this morning had a quote from Sopers of Lincoln for £353.92. As...

Easiest job ever. Took 2 minutes 45 seconds (including discon/reconn the negative terminal).

Update on my issue - all resolved and roof working. Local garage (MUTIMER, Hacheston IP13) found a broken wire on a previously-bodged repair. All tickety-boo now. Thanks to all for your help and support (esp Robbi)

Thanks Stash, I’ve tried holding both switches (I can hear them clicking) but the boot still won’t open. I’ve done it with ignition on and off, me holding the boot switch and also using the key fob but nothing is working.

Mine has just done exactly the same thing today after months of pain-free operation. Went to close it, it shut and latched on the windscreen but the rear screen froze half-way down. Alarm bong and message “Roof Movement Impaired”. Windows open, can’t open the boot. When I bought the car last...

Hi everyone, I have the 2 dash sections and console (all aluminium) from a RHD E85 for sale. It’s far from perfect and there are some scratches on the items (as you can see in the pics) hence £50 posted anywhere in the UK. Paypal only please. Let me know if you have any questions and thanks...

Hi there, does this include the hoop mesh guards?

Thanks for all your help, adding names to the files was the answer. Curse this new-fangled technology, give me a chinagraph pencil and an overhead projector.

Thanks I’ll give it a go. Technology eh?
