Good luck with your search Bill.

You may need to be lucky, willing to travel or patient though as it looks like only 268 Automatic 3.0Si Roadsters came to the UK.

Have you seen this one that seems to fit the bill?
Full champagne nappa!
Only negative not heated seats…

Hi yes, seen that one on Autotrader but not keen on the Champagne Leather - although mileage is good.

Another issue is that now they are all well into their teens there probably aren't too many that have done less than 70K miles. Personally I'd be a bit flexible on mileage for a smart one with good history as the N52 engine is pretty bulletproof.

My daily 330i has the same engine and is still performing well on 128K. It replaced a 325i that I sold on 139K that was also fine and I'm sure people have run Z4s to higher mileages than that with no major problems.

Sorry not keen on champagne nappa leather? Ok never heard that before.
I can always provide you my base flat black SE seats.

Hi Bill,they are only 34 registered in the UK at the moment and i have one . I could possibly be tempted to sell. What is your budget? Mine has 95000 miles with full history and good condition. Midnight Blue with pearl grey interior.

Hi Paul, Really looking for less than 70k miles if possible. I realise that is could prove to be difficult task, but there must be the odd one out there lurking around.

Many thanks for the offer, but had SE base seats in a 2004 3.0 SE some 15 years ago and found out that they did not suit my back

I sold a MK4 Golf that had 190k miles a while ago - however the engine was great, but all the other moving parts kept needing to be replaced due to their high miles.
