How do I know my z4 coupe is a sport model?

Hello, real dumb newbie question. I'm buying a car that's advertised as a z4 3.0 sport, but how do I know it is rather than an se?
It has the m steering wheel & seats but these can be option on the se version I believe. The logbook just lists si, the hpi check came back with the same but worryingly the insures mentioned it was an se ??

edit the car is listed on here

EDIT Issue resolved, it is the sport model.
 
There are plenty of decoders on the internet too. Enter the last 7 digits and it gives you the list of all the original options.
 
or put your reg & mileage in here https://www.capconnect.co.uk/consumervalues/vauxhall.aspx?CH=U2ETN
will give you a list of the extras & also a current valuation
 
You can option sport seats but didnt think you could the m steering wheel.

Anyway, it has exhaust trims too which the se doesnt have, and looks like sport springs too, so if it is an SE has all the sport options added back in, so happy days!!

But my money is that it is a sport! Nice interior too, but i may be bias!

m_cozzy, welcome to the forum, plenty of good advise above, all i have to add is 'the coupe is the best choice' :thumbsup:
 
yeah sorry mr C . . forgot my manners there for a moment :)
welcome aboard the coupe express :thumbsup: top choice of german engineering
 
If you have the option with the number 704 in the otion list, you have a Sport chassis.
Another way to check is to measure the space between the road and the chassis near the door. If this distance is very nearly 12.5 cm, you have one...
 
With the original invoice, you should have the list of options.
Otherwise if you have the number of the chassis you can write to BMW customer service the following request:

You should have an answer (in deutch - use Google to translate) in the 48 hours with the details of the car and the option (I did that and I've all the detail of my Coupe) :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
It looks to have a dark headlining, which is available on the sport model. The SE has a light grey lining on its roof :)
 
Thanks for the info all, especially the mention of option code 704.
Using this site http://bmwvin.com the sport chassis is listed :thumbsup:
 
Yours is definitely a sport, you have:
108s sport option
Sports seats (standard on sport)
two tone interior sports option
M Sport steering wheel (standard on sport)
Looks like you have the sport suspension also (standard on sport)

With your spec of car its 99.9% a sport, I can send you a full spec list if you like.
