Description
For sale is my 1999 BMW Z3 2. 8 Roadster finished in the rare Palmetto Green with beige leather interior. Powered by BMW’s M52 2. 8-litre straight-six engine and smooth automatic gearbox, it’s a fantastic car to drive and an increasingly desirable modern classic. The car starts, drives and performs as it should. I’m only selling because it has spent most of its time in my garage, apart from a short period being used while my other car was off the road. It deserves to be enjoyed by another owner rather than sitting unused. Work carried out during my ownership:New brake calipers, discs, pads, braided hoses and pad wear sensorsNew brake pipes throughoutFront wheel bearings, hubs and reluctor ringsABS sensors replaced on all four wheelsFront wishbones, bushes and anti-roll bar linksRear coil springsEngine cooling fan motorCabin blower resistorRadiator hosesSeat bushingsNew windscreen wipersRecent maintenance:Full service (July 2025) including engine oil/ filter, gearbox oil/ filter, spark plugs, air filter and cabin filterCoolant flushed and replacedUnderside rust treated and paintedBrand new tyres on all four cornersBrand new batteryFresh 12-month MOTV5, MOT history and various invoices includedSpecification:117, 054 miles2. 8-litre M52 straight-sixAutomatic gearboxBeige leather interiorElectric seatsElectric windowsElectric mirrorsPower steeringAlloy wheelsElectric convertible roofHonest points:Small windscreen chip on passenger side (MOT advisory)Light rust beginning on the sills (shown in photos and MOT advisory)Minor surface corrosion on brake pipes (advisory only - pipes have recently been replaced)Radio aerial bracket missing, so the radio doesn’t work correctly, although bluetooth connectivity is availableAge-related marks and minor scratches consistent with a 27 year old carOverall, this is a well-maintained example in a rare colour with one of BMW’s best straight-six engines. It would make an excellent summer car or future classic. Please message with any questions or to arrange a viewing. Open to offers. Genuine enquiries only. This car is unlike other vehicles on the road. Originally imported but not sure where from, during my 3 years of ownership I have noticed that when driving, you can see peoples heads turn as it drives by listening to the 2. 8Ltr engine and staring the rare palmetto green colour. It is an amazing car that will only go up in value, and hours of work have already gone into renewing the mechanics underneath the car, ensuring it will last another 27 years on the road with the right care and attention it deserves.
