It has pretty basic spec, no sports seats, no heated seats, and an aftermarket stereo...
I think roadsters need heated seats... in the UK anyway.
I would consider 2.0l e89 Z4s in your search, they are pretty punchy.
I think you can do better on spec for the money.

Its a little bit more, but a whole lot of car!

They are turbocharged, so at UK road driving speeds, it feels quicker than the 3.0si in my opinion.
The 3.0 will pull far more after say 70mph, but the 20i is no slouch either.
The only thing you can do is drive both and see which you prefer.

looks a nice straight car in unmolested condition - price about right for a dealer - some might say pricey but few good original manual 3 litre cars around - do the obvious though - ring and ask them for the reg so you can check the MOT history and do a cheap HPI check to see how many owners etc - if you're serious about the car it's worth spending a tenner - if you view it check the normal things ie that the hood goes up and down seamlessly and that the tyres have plenty of tread left and that the service history is all there - if it needs tyres and a service you're talking a few hundred quid ! the car looks sound - nice original wheels - the seats are standard unheated not sports seats - wouldn't bother me but would some people ! do some research on the trader and see if you can find some recent reviews - one thing I hate is the way some traders charge an administration fee - cheeky buggers !! Anyway good luck if you end up buying it the engine will put a smile on your face

Personally I'd avoid that one. As mentioned. It's very basic in terms of no m-sport seats, not heated, no multifunction steering wheel, less desirable wheels and its age
If you keep an eye on the forums here you'll get a lot more for your money at that price

What's your budget?
I've got a nice 3 litre I'll be selling soon as I've recently purchased an e89 thought I'd wait until spring but it's just sitting in my garage not being used, all I've got to do is mot it, pm me if you would like further details, its going to be priced considerably cheaper than that silver one!
