I spotted this little cream puff whilst doing the rounds on eBay this morning (I was bored on duty)..

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Z4-2-5-spares-or-repairs-/322483670840?hash=item4b15864f38:g:KdgAAOSwTM5Y8RpT

Those issues will add up and cost £££'s to fix, but nice if it could be saved..
 
Too risky business imo.
Head gasket failure and then sounds like its been run hot a few times by the description.
Not just a simple case of swapping in a new head gasket as running hot for any length of time can cause a multitude of other big problems.
'Small oil leak' if oil filter housing gasket or cam cover gasket then it's no biggy, but if it's the main seal between engine/gearbox then walk away.
Had to do mine on e46 m3 and it was a bit of a chew to say the least.
 
£995 :cry: some Zs really aren't worth fixing & that looks a prime example :(
£500 max then take the car apart & even then its a struggle to find anything of real value :?
A peasant spec 2.5 , 128K that even mint wouldn't be worth more than £2500 on a hot day with the sun in your eyes :o
 
Sadly I see this car only has a future in parts. Shame- be nice to see someone save the car!
