The Appeal
Launched in July 2002 as a replacement for the wildly successful Z3, the E85 BMW Z4 was larger and stiffer than its predecessor. It also introduced multi-link rear suspension and made extensive use of aluminium in order to offset its greater size.
This 2005 example stands out due to its well-documented history and careful ownership. Having been imported from Germany in 2015, it boasts a full German dealer history up to 83,745 km. The current owner has maintained it meticulously, with a recent oil service completed and a major service carried out in September 2024.
With a host of desirable factory features such as climate control, a HiFi speaker system, and heated seats, this Z4 offers a compelling package. Its well-preserved original condition and comprehensive service record make it a compelling choice for enthusiasts seeking a well-cared-for example.
The vendor says:
"I inspected multiple Z4s before purchasing this one, ultimately choosing it for its full maintenance history and excellent original condition."
