E85 6 cylinder 2.5Si, 3.0 or 3.0Si

True-Blue

Veteran
 Bristol/Bath
Edited as parameters have changed as the Mrs has bought a 2 series convertible which will be fine for weekends away.

Looking for and E85, preferably an 3.0Si, in Monaco Blue, Midnight Blue or Carbon black - (or Toledo Blue for an older 3.0)

Must have’s;

Heated seats - preferably Msport
HPI clear
Decent service history - very few of these cars have a complete history these days. Self-servicing is fine as long as there is evidence with receipts etc.

Don’t mind’s;

Manual or auto
Standard or modified - within reason (no ironing board spoilers)

Feel free to PM or reply here

Based in Bristol, but happy to travel (within reason) for the right car.

Thank you :thumbsup:
 
I am selling my Z4 3.0I E85 Auto. It’s silver. Bought from a fellow forum member 4 years ago and has done about 97k.

It has been serviced twice per year during my time having it.

It has had new discs and pads, new suspension arm and recently had brake pipe replaced. Plus some more maintenance works.

Currently located in Scotland, usual few scratches on body and alloys with car this old. Great working order and had its MOT and service week before Christmas Comes with quite a thorough service history.

Can send you some pics if interested!

Thanks,

Scott
 
Good luck with your search mate. I hope you find another good one which suits your needs! :thumbsup:

Whatever you find I'm sure it will be shining like a new pin soon! :)

Congrats on the sale and GLWT search for the next zed :thumbsup:

Cheers, although it was a bit harder to watch this one drive away.

I’m also looking at 235i’s and various 4 series convertibles. Probably won’t go as far as an M4 as it’s still going to be a second car. Needs to be fun, nippy, convertible & auto

Thanks mate, it’ll certainly get paint correction treatment :thumbsup:

I know the feeling, hard to watch mine drive away as it was immaculate - just need an auto and 4 seats for the grandkids.

4 series is a great car, the M4 is an amazing machine in vert form, others will say the coupe is better as its stiffer / lighter / faster etc. never notice in normal driving.

try a 440i - almost as quick and looks pretty good as well or maybe a 35iS is the way to go
 
I think you’re really looking for a nice Alpina Martin, you just haven’t realised it yet …

….I thought this might happen Alan, and I did think about Z4M’s and Alpina’s… the nigh on £700 annual road tax bill takes the shine of M’s a bit, how do Alpina’s fare on that front?

Suspenders... Don't be keeping us in them :D :poke:

E85 3.0Si auto in Midnight Blue 82k miles - I have always wanted an E85 in Monaco, but I actually prefer Midnight having now seen it in the metal, kind of purpley-blue. Car is great mechanically, needs some minor cosmetics.

Massive pile of invoices, recently had 1.1k spend at RBM circa 4k miles ago; full gearbox service, inspection 2 etc.

has some dubious ‘Mpower’ badges which will be removed in due course, along with some aftermarket DRL’s…. Which will also go. Has front and rear hard-wired dash cams, which will definitely stay. I think the audio has been upgraded, as definitely not standard tweeters and sounds pretty decent compared to normal. I think it has a roof module of some sort as roof goes down from the key. Also has aftermarket Bluetooth of some sort, haven’t worked it all out yet :thumbsup:

I’ll probably get a photo tomorrow :thumbsup:
