        There are alot of folk on here who can assist with guidance on most Z3M for sale, should you need it. I would personally buy based on condition not milage and read the checklist on here of known issues and whether they have been sorted. Estoril blue is the best colour..........
        Thank you for your advise. The black one was in Hampshire but the owner took a deposit on it over the week end. Beautiful car tho. Been a fan of the MC for quite some time and now find myself in a position where I can scratch that itch. I am trying to buy at under 90k miles if I can but yes, have read the areas of concern to check on.

            Welcome to the Forum, a few cars have become available laterly, so a few more likely will turn up for sure. Some get flagged up on here. Have you managed have a look at any cars so far?

              Yes. I went from Kent up to Mathewsons last week and shared a cuppa with Derek and had a good look and fiddle at lot 397 MC . I also went and looked approx 3 weeks ago at a fairly high mileage one that was spoken about on this site but my gut said no, as much as I want one. I do really like the Oxford green but don't want to put up a barrier against other colours.

                The centre tunnel cup holder bit is genuine BMW Z3 part - there are two versions available - the armrest is then attached after. There are how-to's for attaching one from a 5 series, or you can buy a set from LeatherZ in the US that has already been done. This one is mine:

                    They are listed in realoem but only under US models,

                    https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=03_1718

                    Once fitted they will mark the leather console when or if removed. Leatherz and others have added the armrest to the basic plastic cup holder.

                      Thanks for the advice. I like the idea of attaching one from a 5 series, will try to work it out.

                        Glad you've had a chance to look at a few cars as it's the only way to get a feeling on how prices and condition compare. For my first one I looked around at five, as far North as Edinburgh and South down to London plus a few in the Midlands. My second was by remote viewing/discussion after someone very knowledgeable check it out for me (I've still got it 11years later!!).

                        Shame about the Mathewsons Auction car, especially as you have travelled up Thornton-le Dale. Derek is a great character, we (BMWCCNE) had a visit to his place around 2019 just as Bangers and Cash was taking off, he gave us a great talk on the history of Mathewsons etc.

                        Just looked on Pistonheads and there are half a dozen up for sale, all dealers, ranging from £28k for Estoril Blue S50 - 113k miles to a staggering £89.5k Titan Silver S54- 5k miles at Munich Legends.

                        Good Luck with your search.
