Description
• 1997 BMW Z3 1. 8 • 1, 796 cc engine with 5-speed manual gearbox • Indicated mileage of 116, 138 km • Good original condition, unrestored • Comprehensive factory specification including leather, heated seats and BMW Business radio The BMW Z3 is one of the most recognisable roadsters of the 1990s. Its classic proportions, with its long bonnet, compact rear end and the joy of open-top motoring, make it a particularly appealing youngtimer today. This example was built on 27 September 1996 and first registered on 6 February 1997. The car is presented in Montrealblau Metallic (colour code 297) with an Oregon black leather interior. The 1, 796 cc M43 engine produces 85 kW and is paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. Drive is to the rear wheels. The indicated mileage is 116, 138 km. The chassis number is WBACJ11080LA69340. The car is in good original, unrestored condition. The bodywork is intact and presents well. The paintwork is in its original colour and shows normal signs of use. The soft top is in good original condition and has been upgraded with fabric in place of the synthetic material. The interior is attractive and original, and the mats are in very good condition. This Z3 has a desirable factory specification including a leather sports steering wheel, Oregon black leather interior, heated seats for driver and passenger, electric windows, wooden interior trim, an alarm, fog lights, BMW Business RDS radio and a BMW 6-CD changer. The car is also pre-equipped to take a hardtop. The underside is original and in good, honest overall condition. The tyres have good tread but date from 2016 and their use is therefore now limited. Technically, this BMW presents very well. The engine and engine bay are in perfect original condition. The car has been meticulously maintained and all fluids are fresh. The clutch and 5-speed manual gearbox work perfectly. The brakes also work perfectly and are correctly adjusted. Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has produced an expertise report for this car.
