Description
Motodrome offer this gorgeous, low-mileage 1998 BMW Z3 M roadster, finished in Arctic Silver with full Estoril 2-tone leather trim and blue hood
Comes with the ‘M3’ plate as shown in the pictures, and a genuine BMW hardtop too, along with a wind deflector and the rare soft top cover.
Fantastic provenance on this one, as it’s had just 2 private owners from new (the last since 2004) and has a warranted mileage of just 23000m.
The M roadster is a completely different beast to the cooking Z3, in that it’s effectively a BMW M3 in a small sports 2 seater body. It’s powered by the legendary Motorsport Division S50 3. 2 litre 6 cylinder 316hp engine as fitted to an E36 M3, driving through ZF 5-speed transmission, and with a limited slip differential.
The most significant body difference between a standard Z3 and a Z3 M are the flared rear wings to accommodate the extra-wide rear rims, but the front and rear valances and quad exhausts give the game away too.
Usual very high specification – air conditioning, power hood, seats, windows, 17in alloys, heated seats, BMW radio/ CD, central locking.
This one is also fitted with an uprated PowerFlow rear exhaust system, which sounds lovely.
As above, this one has covered just 23000 miles in the hands of just 2 owners from new, and comes with history including the original purchase invoice, original BMW service book with BMW main dealer stamps to 13561m, and a selection of bills and old MOT’s back to 2006. Brake fluid change and service at 22578m and we’re told all 4 tyres have no more than 500 miles on them.
Last serviced September 2024 at 22844m, including new spark plugs and battery
We have the original book pack etc
It has MOT (no advisories) to September 2025, and 6 months warranty on sale, so it's ready to go.
It is in really good shape in my opinion (as befits it’s low mileage) and drives superbly, with great performance and an excellent 6-cylinder soundtrack that’s quite addictive.
On our own website, you’ll find our usual 2 videos – a comprehensive walkaround appraisal, and driving impressions, which form part of the description
