I never thought I was a top down kind of guy but since selling the Alpina Roadster S last year, I've missed the top down experience over the 4 days of summer that we get in Scotland each year. With that in mind I'm looking for a summer plaything. Current thoughts are to go down the Z4 route...

Hi all, I have a leather E85/E86 steering wheel for sale here. There are a few blemishes to the trims as pictured but could be painted/wrapped if the new owner would like to do so. The leather, although shiny, is in pretty good condition too. A variety of pictures are attached here but if...

Hi all, Does anybody know if all Z4 steering wheels are essentially the same once all the trim and buttons are removed? I'd like to have my steering wheel refurbished by Royal but at the same time I want to retain my original Alpina steering wheel. To get around this I'm thinking about...

Eibach Pro Kit Springs for sale (part no E10-20-010-01-22). Lowers 30mm over standard and according to the Eibach website they are compatible with the following models - Z4 (E85) 2.2i, 2.5i, 2.5si, 3.0i, 3.0si. I ran these for approximately 10,000 miles on my Alpina Roadster S and they are...

Hi all, Due the curved nature of the front bumper I was wondering if anybody has installed a number plate surround rather than drilling holes in their number plate? If so would it be possible to post pics so I can get an idea of what it looks like? Once upon a time I remember seeing pics of...

This hard top started life as a Merlot Red example but I had it resprayed last year in Sapphire Black to go with the car. All interior linings and fixtures were removed prior to the respray and it's in pretty good condition. It's currently on my car and if you are local you are very welcome to...

OEM E85/E86 Car Cover for sale. I've only used it a handful of times for very short periods (overnight whilst mid "detail") and as I now have a garage it's unlikely that I will ever use it again. I don't have a picture of it on my car but the same cover can be seen at the following link...

No idea if this is any use to anybody but here goes. Along with the mismatched springs that my car had it was also supplied with mismatched rear tyres (I somtimes wonder why I bought it too...)! These were taken off pretty sharpish and they have been sat in my shed ever since. The tyres have...

I've recently changed the springs on my car to Eibach's so I now have these for sale. The springs are in good condition but I suspect they have been on the car since new due to the 47/03 marking which must represent Week 47, 2003?? Looking at them I can't believe they would have been on since...

I've recently changed the springs on my car to Eibach's so I now have these for sale. When I bought the car I suspected something wasn't quite right as the rear sat quite a bit higher than the front. It would appear that the rear springs were changed with standard BMW non M Sport ones instead...

Hi folks, I'm getting prepared this year so I'm starting to think winter wheels already! Looking at wheels options i was wondering if anybody knew if e36 M3 alloys will fit the Z4? I know the e46 M3's had a different offset to the "standard" cars but I'm not sure if that applied to the...

Hi folks, I always thought my car didn't sit right so I got it up in the air today. Looking at the front everything seems ok with Eibach/Alpina springs but on the rear it would appear the previous owner put BMW springs on (or the garage did). The part number is 3353 6780 605 and they look...

My collection of part worn, mismatched 19" tyres is available for sale. Here's what I have... 1 x Michelin Pilot Sport 2 (PS2) tyre in a 235/35 x 19 fitment. There is a good 5 to 6mm of tread on the 3 main grooves. £65 collected but can arrange delivery. 1 x Continental Sport Contact 3 tyre...

I'm not sure if these are any use to anybody but it's time to clear out a few tyres. Here's what I have... 1 x 235 35 19 Michelin Pilot Sport (PS2) Tyre with 5 to 6mm of tread across the 3 main grooves - £70 1 x 265 30 19 Continental Sport Contact 3 Tyre with 3 to 4mm of tread across the 3...

Hi folks, I've got a slight metalic clicking/clonking noise as I come on and off the accelerator and most noticeably at slow speeds (1st/2nd gear). If I dial in more revs and release the clutch I don't appear to get the noise. I've had a search on here and noticed a few have replaced the donut...
