Okay, so first I thought this was going to be a stupid question with an obvious answer, but having used the search I can see other people asking for advice on trolley jacks - which I already have for my e34 M5, which is as low as the Z4MC.
If I'm at home or at a friends, I've not got a problem as I can always get a trolley jack under. However after my puncture this week, I ranted to anyone who would listen that had I know how much hassle it was for BMW to recover me and take me to a dealer to get a tyre fitted (too bad for the mobility kit), I would have removed the wheel myself and taken it to a garage directly.
It was only today as I was taking the wheel off that I realised I didn't know where the wheel brace & jack were in my Z.
Therefore, my (stupid) question is does the Z4MC have a scissor jack and wheel brace secreted somewhere that I haven't found?
If the answer is no, then is this any use (for temporary/side of the road lifting of course), as I don't want to carry a trolley jack around everywhere:
71 10 6 768 319 - 'Lifting Jack Set'
Both RealOEM and BMWFans list this as for the E86 (as well as for plenty of others).
And while I'm asking silly questions, does the toolkit really only contain a spanner, screwdriver, towing eye and locking wheel socket? Where's the spark plug tool, the other 3 spanner sizes, etc. that I've got in my e34?
(there's 3 different spanners listed for part 8 btw)
