Bought this lovely hard top earlier in the year and fully intended to use it through the winter - was aiming for 1st November amusingly enough, so would have been stuck on the car this weekend.
Unfortunately I accidentally bought a E89 this morning and stuck it in the garage
which I wasn't really thinking about doing until next year.
Not sure whether I'll end up keeping it or not as my E85 is pretty much perfect after 16 months of fettling - but either way, I'm now skint so the hard top is a luxory I can't afford to hold on to while I've got the 2 Zeds.
Pictures below fitted to my car - it is in very near perfect condition, the only thing to point out is that some salty rain water came through the top seal where I didn't have it fitted properly and left a trace of white residue when it dried on the roof lining - a wash removed most of it but you can still see a faint mark which most likely will come out with another dabbing with clean water.
Included is the following:
Hard top in sterling grey
Set of rare side covers (note the small top cover is NOT included) to cover the locking mechanisms internally
Locking tool
Original genuine BMW cover - this is the one I got with the hard top - perfectly usable (and is on the hard top now) but the zip is broken and it is a bit on the scruffy side.
Another genuine original BMW cover which is BRAND NEW in the bag and never used!
3 of the little rubber feet which go on the end of the locking pins (so 2 plus 1 spare) - these are used to a) protect the pins when the hard top is on the ground and b) protect the pins if you use the BMW bag to mount against a wall.
Hard top stand on wheels - just a few months old.
Price for all that lot: £1100 collection from South Bristol/Bath area (BS39) - will not split.
Ideally budget an hour for collection/fitting and also ideally when it's light and not raining - just in case we need to tweak the fitting on your car so the top doesn't catch your paintwork at the rear.
(I also have a pair of the top down side covers which were intended to be used with the hard top fitted - haven't included in this sale as it would push the price up to something ridiculous but will give first refusal to the hard top buyer before offering to the masses)
